And even if he makes that leap and puts up Keegan numbers, what about his numbers from this year? Who's going to make those up? He's not going to put up Keegan + Kris numbers from this year. Essentially, they're going to need one of their guys that could barely see the floor this year to suddenly become a huge contributor next year. And that's only to be as good as they were this year.

Kris Murray had to have benefited from all the attention on his brother. It's a TALL task to repeat 39% from 3 when the scouting report is to stop you from shooting
As much as Jbo is hated.. He did bring a dangerous shooting presence. Having Cmac, Patrick and Rebraca on the court at the same time will allow defenses to cheat over on Sandfort, Kris Murray and whomever else Fran is playing.
Best case scenario for Iowa is another bad year for the Big 10 and racking up wins against Minnesota, Northwestern and Nebraska

And to be honest I think Minnesota is going to be salty + Fred’s in a make or break season.
Funnelnut, everything Hawkeye, and ballwasher Quinn Douglas still bitter about Luka not getting POY and then on the rag about Clark not getting women's POY award. Dude needs a social life!
I could see him at one of the ISU scrimmages at Ames or Gilbert just so he can talk crap about ISU.

Keegan's defense/shot blocking and offensive rebounding flew very under the radar this past season. He scored a ton of points with quick put backs. Dude is like a spring board.

Kris doesn't play with his back to the basket like his brother and he doesn't have the same handle either. I'm not saying he isn't a good player but he won't get down hill to the rim at will like Keegan did. Then again if the B1G defends like they did this year then anything is possible.
I’d hate to see what cold looks like."Connor got pretty hot at the end of the year."

He does know he can keep quiet right? Like, the options aren't "heap praise they are unworthy of" or "bash a player". He can just be quiet."Connor got pretty hot at the end of the year."

He wasn't that far off. From Jan. 31 to Feb. 28 he went 16-26 from three point range. He was hot for about the whole month of February."Connor got pretty hot at the end of the year."

NW and Nebby are pretty good though.
Lol a 10 day stretch where he couldn't miss and that's it.
Hey man once you get thru Northwestern you'd be spent for the year too.
He also didn't score a point in 18 games this year..
If the starting line up for them next year is Connor, Perkins, PMac, Kris, and Rebraca, that's the senior citizen lineup of the NCAA. It would be 24, 22, 22, 22, 25. Like BYU but not as good.
If they capped his minutes at 8-10 and just said, hey be a pain in the ass and make a couple shots. Seems like he could be a serviceable bench guy for 4-6 pts, but if he's looked to be more than that, think it stretches him and exposes the weakness in his game.
Can't figure out why they'd be trying to turn him into a starter getting 20+ mins a game though...
I have to ask though.. using your logic and capping his minutes, how would he score 4-6 ppg? He averaged 2.5 ppg at 17 mpg lol.If they capped his minutes at 8-10 and just said, hey be a pain in the ass and make a couple shots.
