Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

Weren't Hawk fans saying Fredrick redshirted because of medical reasons?

Fredrick sat out last year as well, but not for medical reasons. The rookie shooting guard didn’t feel he was ready to play at the Big Ten Conference level with a mere 170 pounds on his 6-foot-3 frame.

Frederick is why Moss transferred is the rumor on the Hawk boards. Fredrick was going to take his starting spot this year because he has been tearing it up in practice.

Lol a walk on who redshirted because he couldn't play last year on a team with no good guards forced a guy to transfer to Kansas?
Have u watched the tape of him playing in the Kentucky high school championship game? Hawks fans describe it like he was better then Jordan and Lebron combined. Im not sure how Fran was able to land this kid as a walk on, I always knew Fran could recruit but I didnt know he was that good he could get guys of this caliber to walk on.
 
Haven’t seen that....don’t think that’s the consensus by any stretch
Moss transferred because he thought there were times when Connor would come into the game for him and he didn't believe Connor should have been playing during some of those stretches, usually to end the games.
 
I've seen it on HN, HR, and on social media. Do you close your eyes while reading message boards?

I dont think a majority of Iowa fans actually believe that.

Quite a jump to make that conclusion based on a couple dozen, at most, posters on a message board or Twitter.

Just because one or two people post something doesn’t mean the majority of Hawk fans think that...

I don’t quote Cat Stevens as being representative of “Cyclone fans”

You mean the guy that disagrees with me even when I'm stating a fact and not an opinion? :)

This is true. Nepotism at its finest. Moss wasn't good but there was no way Connor should have been in at the end of games over him

I'm sure there is also some validity to the fact that Moss knew Fran loves CJ Frederick and he could have also cut into his minutes and said screw it I'm out of here. I heard from a pretty reliable source that Moss and Fran talked about Connor and his minutes and Fran basically said that's not going to change.

No where did I say it was the whole fan base. The idea that Dexter hasn't seen it means he is blind. It's been posted on many platforms.

Well there are idiots in every fan base and every platform for a fan has those idiots posting there.

Its kind of a weird angle to take since its so few people that actually believe that.

I've also heard Iowa fans say that CJ Frederick dominated Moss in practice and was better than him overall, which is crazy considering Moss was looking at some big time schools when transferring and then ended up at one of the top 5 best basketball schools in the nation.

Connor is so bad he shouldn't even get minutes. I hope Patrick plays a lot this year too
