Seemingly never ending Iowa MBB thread (still going.....)

They aren't good, at all. Four players fouled out....they don't play together, either. Crean can recruit, but I don't think he's much of a coach. Hard to believe that bunch beat both KU and UNC earlier in the season.

How do you have 4 players foul out? Lol
 
I didn't get to watch the game but is Indiana that bad? Like worse than Illinois?

Their offense looked like the whole design was to run down the court as fast as they could with no plan on what to do when they got there. In the half court, it was pass it around really fast and hope a defender moved out of position. Anyone talking NCAA tournament about them should have their basketball credentials removed. It looks like the players want more heat put on their coach.
 


Not only was that horrible defense, but, he had two plays down the stretch that just make you scratch your head like - huh....

When he reached out in front of him and jok swung his arms through, foul. He hadn't even dribbled yet and wasn't moving....no need to reach.... then the reach foul on Bohanan - thats like giving them 4 points because those guys don't miss free throws.

But, i watch a lot of basketball games and I've never seen a team shoot 45 free throws... thats just crazy!

Bohannon only misses free throws when they need them *cough (Saturday) cough*
 
I want Fran to coach and recruit at Iowa FOREVER.

Its like a never ending supply of dorky, geeky, iowa kids. Just when you think uthoff, mcabe, gesell, woody will never be topped they get a walk on from betterndorf, a miniature PG, a some more random white big guys! I can't get enough of it, oddly. and to think next year they add a coaches son, another geeky indiana kid, and some big ogre - its going to be great!

Weiskamp is going to be awesome, but everyone else should keep iowa firmly in the NIT/bubble range, just enough for Fran to not get fired.
 
LOL, you clearly don't understand what their roles where on those teams...
So I understand the ramifications of this, but looking back, Crean earned this IU job on the backs of DWade and Wesley Matthews. He had some elite talent at Marquette, and he hasn't proven himself as a coach.

Calling my shot here. Crean gets **** canned and Scott Drew takes the IU job.

If anyone is interested in some pure comedy this morning, head over to Hawkeyenation and read the "Jok Shouldnt Start" thread.

Yeah, because most leading scorers of an entire Power 5 conference usually get benched with 5 games left in their senior seasons. Would probably help him spend some time on the bench so he can get acclimated to Division 1 basketball since hes in a slump.

That can't be real
 
"After tonight's 35-point performance, Peter Jok regains the lead in scoring average (Big Ten games only), averaging 19.3 points in 13 games."

"He won't be missed" - Hawk fan

And it started off as 6 fouls against Iowa and 0 against Indiana until Iowa started to boo and Fran starting to *****. Quite the turn around on fouls
The guys sitting in the front row opposite of the team benches were quite hilarious to watch. That fan base sure booed a lot for a group who likes to poke fun at the Hilton crowd....
