We Need Talent!!

Folks it is truly amazing what Fran has been able to do with the lack of talent he has to work with. I think all 5 incoming recruits will have enough talent to knock down the lay ups and little baby jumpers and floaters. Try to have patience.

Please don't throw the current players under the bus.

Iowa shot almost 50% today. Yes we missed some open shots as well, but it was on the defensive side of the ball we had issues with today.

Crawl in a hole. Iowa has talent, but a shortened roster. Quit throwing players under the bus.

A shortened roster. That's excuse number 96, a new one.

Re: We Need Talent!!

No they need guard talent. two guys are pretty much only perimeter shooters(Oglesby and Gatens) One is unable to shoot but can drive and pass and doesn't even know the meaning of the word defense (cartwright) one is a lanky athlete that can break you down off the dribble and get to the line but doesn't have enough quicks to guard most pg's in the league and is really Swingman (marble) and the other is just a guy wearing a jersey (may) that's why iowa can't make the jump to the top of the league. Between McCabe's post scoring and white's ability to clean up garbage they have the post scoring they need. They need a shot blocker like Archie who can also play offense which Devon can not.

One of the biggest myths in college basketball is that Matt Gatens is a good three point shooter.

Haha good point, change it to pretty much only a FT shooter in my post. Unless of course it's a close game.

Re: We Need Talent!!

Losing to Nebraska this season is understandable. Next season Iowa will have way more talent and Nebraska losses 4 seniors (3 of their best players). Losing to Nebrska next season will be unacceptable!
