The Fran fade

If he sucked as you assert. They wouldn’t be winning

I'm not asserting he sucks, that is not the line of a player who should be a four year starter in the Big Ten. It's just a fact.

It's good that he knows to not be a high volume shooter, the idea that they wouldn't be better with a real Big Ten level player as a starting point guard is absurd.

I like you but I think you've brainwashed yourself into not realizing the kid was going to play a ton no matter how bad he sucked and regardless of how the team does.

I'm still trying to figure out why Joe doesn't get more minutes? Do you guys disagree with Gonzo?
I'd love to see what would happen if JoeT knew going into a game he was going to play 25 mins. Lately, I think he gets in and tries to do too much to quickly and it hurts his play. He's trying to make a difference knowing he might only get 5 mins. I think the ability to be a solid pg is there, but he hasn't really deserved more mins based on his play the last 10 games or so. He might calm down and play more under control if he knew he wasn't going to get yanked the first time he makes a mistake. He'll get that opportunity next year if he sticks around.

So you disagree with everything Gonzo posted?

We’ll just have a o agree to disagree on this
 
Clearly you don't know he is capable of playing less because he plays at different times.
You're confusing "less" with not his normal minutes. His normal minutes would have had him playing more in the 2nd half and less in the 1st half. Weiskamp picked up 2 fouls in the 1st half which made Fran put Connor back in. And they like Connor in down the stretch with a large lead to help handle the ball.

I'm not confusing anything.
If you tell someone player X played "less" than their normal minutes (22.8) they are going to assume its 22.7 or under.
You're just trying too damn hard and would call other people names for the same type of post.
But your know it all attitude won't just laugh it off and let it go.
 
If you say so. I didn't read his post.

I said allocated differently. That's exactly what happened. You're triggered.

My "know it all attitude"? Your team is a dumpster fire and you spend more time telling Iowa fans what's wrong with their team than focusing on ISU. You're one of the main reasons this thread is always at the top of recent posts.

After I called you out on your initial lie of less minutes. Here's your post unedited
Connor did not have a good game and didn't play as much as he normally does. Bohannon played a good floor game just didn't shoot well.

Again, you'd call someone a moron.
