His minutes dropped as a sophomore and there was talk of him transferring after that year because he would never see the floor again. He ended up being a decent defender and game manager by his senior season.
Fran has hinted at line-up changes, when you play (now 12) does it really matter?
The new Troy Skinner! Awesome congrats the 2020's are looking bright for hok basketball. Unless he's a one and done of course.

some choice quotes from the article:
"The crown jewel of the Sports Commission is the NAIA Women’s National Basketball Tournament"... said no one ever.
"NAIA officials will tell you no one does it better than Sioux City..." eww.
I will go on record that Jim Wharton is a pretty good dude. I wont bash on him. It probably was a bit of a slap in the face that they didnt hit up the hordes of Hawk fans in the Siouxland area. I have no doubt Fran was trying to ride the coattails of the other teams that have played in Sioux Falls as of late. However, youd think that Fran would want to stay away from Sioux Falls, thats where Augustana is.
"Siouxland has been fertile recruiting grounds for Iowa. Just recently, there were Adam Woodbury, Zach McCabe and Mike Gesell"

Huh, you would think if he was so good that his High school basketball team would be a lot better than 84th in the state.
People, please remember who we are. All articles referencing Sioux City and Hokeye basketball should refer to Sioux City as the Siouxer.
To be fair, Iowa gains NOTHING by playing a game in Sioux City. The game against Colorado will most likely be a nationally televised game on one of the ESPN's and if the game is played in Sioux City BTN plus is probably best case scenario. Why would Iowa take a home game away from their fans when the benefit would be minimal?
With how bad Iowa is they might be better off not playing on national television
Iowa's attendance isn't that bad. Yeah, we like to poke fun because we sell out every game but they are still getting pretty decent attendance. Their student section/attendance is pretty bad but they are filling a lot of seats with donors/season ticket holders. No, they aren't selling out but it's not any worse than what you are seeing at OU, OSU, Baylor, Tech, or even UT.
