The Fran fade

Yeah they're like a car crash, you can't take your eyes off of them lol. Which is common for walk-ons. There aren't many that are able to be in games that matter. And Till did better in the second half because Iowa went zone almost the entire time. In the first half, Till got absolutely shredded but he was also going up against a very good player. They didn't want to put Garza on him because they didn't want Garza to get into foul trouble. Till was put into a very tough spot last night.
Giving Till a scholarship when you knew Bohannon and Patrick would sit for the year was real dumb
agree with that. Till overplayed the passing lanes a couple times and was caught way out of position as well. Have to get minutes out of him or Ash and for me it's Till. Steal some minutes and go zone with him on the floor.
We may never know if Iowa was going to fade down the stretch with CJ. If they fade down the stretch without him though, it's not going to hold as much weight now.
Agreed. Ash just isn't athletic enough nor is he physically capable of playing at this level. Till is athletic and semi-strong, but he's not skilled at all. Has their been a time frame on Pemsl's suspension? He's not very good either, but he's better than Till.
Thanks bro - and I mean bro because you love the 'Clones.
I'm just concerned of our current program status and because they've pounded Prohm 3-times by double-digs and next year ain't looking confident for me as well.
I didn't care much about losing to Iowa by double digits when we were winning the Big 12 Tournament and making the NCAA tournament, but when we lose AND suck the rest of the year there's really no silver lining lol.
Who else could Fran get? I think he was out of options and thus rewarded a hard working player with a one year schollie. It wouldn't have mattered a whole lot if Nunge wouldn't have torn his ACL and Pemsl wasn't an idiot.
At about the 1:50 mark there is a run of play which pretty well described why Till doesn't much belong out there. Got his shot rejected halfway to South Bend and got just completely blown by on the ensuring Indiana possession.
Yeah I don't think Fran gave the scholarship to Till because he was now going to get minutes. There was a scholarship burning a hole in his pocket and he gave it to Till because he put in the time. Doubtful that Fran believed Till was going to have to play significant minutes.
If he was a good recruiter, he could have maybe gotten a grad transfer, but that is doubtful with his track record.
The guy that was abusing Till was Trayce Jackson-Davis, the #30 player in the class of 2019.
Pemsl only got a 1 game suspension. He will be back on Sunday.
The bigger worry with Pemsl is the fact he was driving to McDonalds at 1 AM when he got pulled over.
While that's true, we still will never know what they could've done with CJ out there. They're losing statistically their best 3 point shooter and that's been Iowa's game all year long outside of giving it to Garza.
