Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

[Statefan10]

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

Connor doesn't have a right hand, he's slow, and he can't shoot a lick from three, but got significant minutes in big time games over a 40% three point shooter who now plays for Kansas. Now I don't think Moss is unreal or anything, but looking at their numbers side by side there is not a chance that Connor would have been playing if his last name was different.

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

Except your understanding of what constitutes a fact is very questionable

And the craziest part of him being in at the end of games over Moss was Connor was a turnover machine compared to Moss based on usage

 

[Cat Stevens]

It's not the consensus, but it's definitely out there.

They have already set the kid up to fail.

Especially if moss has a good year at KU.

After pretending to not know what Pringle’s said yesterday, it’s either that, or he truly agrees.

Link?

Looks like Iowa has the next Pistol Pete....dang. Mad Fran's year 10 has delivered.

From what I've seen his shooting form and overall skills are average rural Iowa high school basketball player circa 1993 and maybe not even that good.

He honestly would not start for Drake or UNI right now. 100%.

That's not out of the realm.

I patterned my game after MJ, and even went through a mix of Gary Payton/Shawn Kemp phase.

Of course, this was in about 7th or 8th grade on the local 8 foot rim with nobody else around, but the point still stands and if a kid wants to dream, let him dream!

Fredrick revealed that he’s not as flashy a passer as was Pistol. He patterned his game after the all-around threat Maravich was.

No ****? I love reading the Iowa Basketball articles. Talking about picking one of the worst players first in pick up games or how unstoppable another player developed in the off season. I'm excited to see what they have in store for us this fall.

It's been revealed you were not as ferocious of a dunker as Shawn Kemp.

I'm surprised I haven't seen Frederick on any NBA draft boards.

Oh my God. That's just mean to hype up a kid like that too

No.

No, I wasn't.

 

[NorthCyd]

Well Frederick certainly LOOKS the part of an Iowa player. We'll just have to wait and see if his defense sucks enough to truly fit in.

Is there anything in life that gives more and more than Iowa basketball? We've been treated so well this past decade.

We should come up with a top 10. You have to put Francon as #1, but the other 9 are debatable.

I can honestly say I have never once heard a kid state they model their game after Pistol Pete.

 

[SCyclone]

It’s the lead feet isn’t it?

If I was a PhotoShop expert, I'd doctor a photo of Garza running downcourt and put some big Bozo shoes on him.

Woodbury's career may force you to make a top 20.

"freshman Frederick may soon become high-level Hawkeye"
