The title says "Big 10 Thread" after all, not Iowa.
So you think that I believe that to be Gard's primary goal, to maintain a level that will get him into the NIT about half the years. He's likely to easily pass that benchmark. But I agree he will ultimately fall short and will not be a borderline final four program often. Explain to me how that make staying ahead of a really crappy program mutually exclusive.
You kept bringing up Iowa for some reason in a post that was discussing Wisconsin. Extremely odd at best.

Just about as odd as you continually posting random **** about Iowa. Yet here we are.
Several of us do. Plus as chaser pointed out, this is a big 10 thread, so it makes sense to talk about Wisconsin hereSo what, who cares about Wisconsin.
Last I checked they were a member of the Big 10--the focus of this thread.So what, who cares about Wisconsin.
Not sure Francis has gotten the Hoks out of the hole. Lickliter was 4-14 in the B1G the year he was fired. Fran is at 3-12 right now. 4-14 is the worst B1G record the Hoks have had since the B1G went to 18 games (1974-1975). Francis has a chance to make Barta look really smart.This season wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for the hole Lickliter put them in

The only real discussion that is relevant to this years Iowa bball team is how f'n good was Peter Jok? I thought he was a pretty good player but his ability to prop up this same team up to get to post season play makes me think I was wrong, apparently he was a freakin stud.
He was exactly what Iowa needed/needs. Decent shooter, ball handler, could create his own shot, could penetrate and finish. Iowa sorta looks a little like ISU after Kane graduated. Still had some nice players, but there was no one to make other defenders switch and cover for the penetrators. ISU wasn't as bad as Iowa is now, but generally it is the same situation.
After Kane left ISU only lost 8 games all regular season.
They were an odd team that seemed to have chemistry issues but comparing them to Iowa post-Jok...not so much.
Why are you in this thread? That isn't "Hawk talk", that's Big Ten talk. Wisconsin isn't hawk talk.Big 10 Thread

At this point Frany is doing worse then Lick Woof
Not too surprising really. Lick was a better coach than Fran.
There aren't a ton of us on here, but @stormchaser2014 and I do
