Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster
- Thread starter CyTwins
- Start date
Yeah I personally would rather us not be in the top-15 or rated higher than Iowa when we go into Kinnick for that matter. I'm not going to complain if we are but I would rather us prove we are one of the top-15 teams instead of being voted that way coming into the season.
He changed the subject to football because he knows there is absolutely no argument to support the claim we will have a better starting 5 next year.
You don't like my opinion. I got it. I'm sorry I can't give you details about a transfer we haven't even landed yet. Lol geez
Maybe he thinks Garza will grad transfer to ISU or something. That's about what it would take.
The fact that 7-6 was disappointing for us shows how things have changed though. We were very close to being very good and very close to missing a bowl game, so we were probably right where we deserved to be.
Next year there will be hype but we have to live up to that hype from day 1. Hopefully we clean some of the things up that were our achilles heel and can possibly have a special season.
So you think our starting 5 will be better than Iowa's like Top 15 starting 5 based on some nameless, faceless transfer that we do not yet have?

"8. Iowa State (21): Our third sleeper pick — more because of the Cyclones’ top-10 position than their ballot inclusion. They won eight games last year, return 16 starters (including quarterback Brock Purdy) and have one of the top coaches in the country (Matt Campbell)."
So yep, just like last summer.
You said ISU was more talented this year as well, how did that turn out?
noted. Correct me if I'm mistaken (I know you will) but that would be the Clones highest finish ever. You are predicting a historic season?
Yes, Twins is on record saying ISU will win a minimum of 9 games and make the Big12 championship game. Although he was on record last year saying a minimum of 8 wins, so he track record isn't very good.
