Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster

If you have a bad take, you accept it and move on. At that time, saying Solo and Griffin were going to be better than Garza probably wasn't that hot of a take. Garza made an ENORMOUS jump and if anyone said that they knew he was going to be the player he currently is, they'd be lying.

No, Solomon and Griffin are not as good as one of the statistically best post players in the country. People say things like that to spark debates and such, but stuff like that cannot even be proven until years down the road.

It's like those Hawk fans that said Oliver Martin was going to be a huge factor on the Hawkeyes this year, yet couldn't get snaps. It happens.

Exactly, everyone is gonna be wrong. Yet common, I am pointing out someones over the top dumb trolls. As I said I do it to shine a light on the stupidity of it. For some reason certain ISU posters here feel the need to defend these dumb trolls like the world depends on them, and they shout me down, call me triggered and obsessed for pointing these dumb trolls out. It is funny. You certainly aren't one of those guys.

Don't think @HawkJRP has ever been to hawk game before. Mom won't let him.

I remember when he sad he rewatched the Hawk Football scrimmage with his "buds" drinking beers. Rewatch a football scrimmage?? WTF??

By all means, point out anything I say. I'm not saying things just to troll, that is others department here, not me. Sure I might not think Bolton is as great as some on here do, but I'm not trolling him. I think Haliburton is great, I don't troll him. I said Purdy is good, I don't troll him.

So as I said I will continue to point out dumb takes and outright trolls from people on here. Like the Parks stuff, LOL, that is just funny. The trolling of Garza, that stuff looks just brilliant now. I mean talking about how bad Iowa was gonna be this season, but they look like a NCAA team and ISU looks really bad, I can go on all day with the bad takes/outright dumb trolling.

It's pretty easy to have a bunch of horrible takes, get banned and then come back with a new name and a clean slate

But saying Solomon young and Griffin were better than Garza way back when would not be a troll. It'd be an opinion on something that had not happened yet. If I were to say that I'd take Solomon and Griffin over Garza right now, it'd be me trolling but it'd be so idiotic to even say such a thing that it would not even warrant a response lol.

It's not a troll. It was just a horrible take and anyone who said it loses a little credibility.

Griffin hadn't even played a minute of college basketball at the time the comment was made.

It's a horrible take being excited and wanting a player that had a Kansas visit and offer?

This is a serious question: you think people believe that?

You think that if I disagree with you that is a troll.

You know and I know that the over the top dumb trolls come from one source. If I tried to pull that stuff I'd get banned in a second.

LOL, like I said you guys will defend the dumb over the top trolling no matter what.

I'm responding to your statements. I don't think every time you disagree with me is a troll.
Also, there has been a lot of leniency with banning, as I referenced what it took Buddy to get banned.

Ok, I have no clue why Buddy got banned, and there is no way I get banned, I'm not even skirting any kind of line at all, well unless mocking bad takes and bad trolls is bannable.

There were people who said they'd rather have Gessell over Monte and Uthoff over Niang.. Lol and that was when all 4 were already playing.

Saying a guy with a KU offer was going to be better than an average post player at the time is not a horrible take lol. It just ended up not being the case.
