Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

I mean we all know why Fran took him. He desperately needs guards. I imagine his tryout consisted of a grad assistant with a stethoscope. As soon as they confirmed a heartbeat, Fran was there with the scholly paperwork and a pen.

Are grad assistants qualified to make that determination?
 
Year 9 folks....

"The stats that the haters like to quote do not take into account the dumpster fire that was Iowa when McC came in. That is their primary failing. Even schools with much better recruiting bases in their states/cities struggle at times. McC has usually been able to put a competitive team on the floor once he got a team of his players."

That is incredibly sad..

The Legend of Lickliter will always persevere and keeps Iowa Hoops expectations in check.
 
Cue the "it's happening" Gif....

@RobHoweHN Fran McCaffery said that the plan for his son, true freshman forward Patrick McCaffery, is to play this season.

Was there ever a really question about Pat not playing this year?

For whatever reason Fran mentioned red shirting Patrick. That way he could be in his late twenties when he is done playing for Iowa.

I’m sure Fran wanted the narrative to be that PM was redshirting while he was still recruiting a grad transfer. It only makes sense. Now that he’s done with that, he can use the excuse of a short roster to justify playing time for his sons.

I disagree. Iowa fans absolutely deserve to watch those two on the floor a lot.

Along with this happening to the basketball program at Iowa.....
