A second round game in the NCAA Tournament would be a good start
Mo Wagner of Michigan
- Thread starter nitewing
- Start date
At the very least. Conference title, conference tourney title, final four. Even elite eight. Do something worth talking about.
SA won 2 BTT Titles.
Miller 14-0 BT Championship after his team went 4-10
Lute 1 BT Championship the year following a 5-14 BT
season
1 FF
1 Sweet 16
Davis
1 Elite 8
2 Sweet 16's
9-0 in NCAAT 1st round wins
Fran after taking over a dumpster fire where Iowa went to the NCAAT 3 winning just once in 11 seasons. Fran guided Iowa to 3 straight NCAAT winning twice in the 1st round in 6 seasons. losing to FF team Gonzaga one season then losing to National Champion Villinova the 2nd season.
Iowa has been to the FF 3 Times making it to the Championship game twice.
to me that is doing something.

no just rebuilt a team from scratch and got Fans to come back and made Iowa BB fun and exciting to watch again, avg'ing 80+ ppg the last 2 season is better than watching paint dry offenses.
take this pissing contest to the OO Season BB thread and stop hijacking a thread about a Michigan player.
I guarantee u the vast majority of Iowa fans would be just fine with watching iowa average in the 60s if it means more wins and actual runs in the NCAAs. It is all about W and Ls. Va fans may not love their style but they sure like their wins and seasons under Bennett, their tourney struggles notwithstanding.
Was or wasn’t Fran the coach that has been there 8 years and built this years 4-14 roster?
I was referring to your comparison ofMichigan and Iowa both using 9-10 man rosters. I’m saying that’s okay if your team improves as the season goes on.
It also makes replacing players easier for next year. Which gets back to the Wagner question.
this year 2 SR's to be left to play elsewhere 1 a GT will play BB at another school Wagner who has 40 starts is going to play FB.
these have left to play BB elsewhere
2012 class Guard Ingram left and as not been heard from again F/C Meyer went to Houston and did pretty good one was replaced by Transfer Uthoff
the other was a JUCO AA PG in Dickerson and he quit just before the 1st game of the NCAAT
he was replaced by a JUCO F in Jones who only played in 11 games because of injuries and he received a medical Hardship giving him a 6th Year and he transferred to one of the schools in the Dakota's
2013 Jok was the lone recruit
2014 Uhl, Dickerson and Ellingson
Uhl was the lone SR who just graduated, Dickerson who would have beeb a SR in the 2015 quit and finally graduated after going to 5 different schools. Ellingson RS and just left as a GT and would have been a SR in the 19 class
2015 JUCO Jones who would have been a SR in the 16-17 season, Williams quit just before the season began, Moss who RS'd, Hutton known as a lock down defender out Chicago RS'd who transferred to a JUCO after his RSFR year, Fleming who played as a FR then transferred out to be closer to home.
Wagner who has now flipped to FB
OUT of 6 in the class only Moss remains.
2016 Bohannon, Pemsl, Cook, Dailey and Kriener made up the class and Moss made it a 6 man class. nobody has left yet. Williams scholarship went to Fredrick who also was going to walkon,
2017 Nunge, Garza with McCaffery walking on
2018 Weiskamp, Fredrick and now Connor who was just put on scholarship makes this a 3 man class.
Fran does not go the Transfer route so when a player leaves he fills that spot with a HS player and a occasional JUCO player.
with the way kids transfer out for what ever reason its hard to balance the classes right now the breakdown going forward should look like this
2018 Class 3 scholarships
2019 class 2 scholarships or 3 depending on Cook leaving or as the rumors swirling if Cook returns Pemsl might leave but his scholarship will be banked for the 2019 class,
2020 6 and as low as 4 scholarships
2020 4 minimum and 6 at the max.
excuse the length as it was to show how the recruiting has gone and how transfers or quitters affect the balance.

this is also what helps in preparing players to step into bigger roles as they advance, Iowa had a total of 6 players suffer injuries during the 17-18 season along with their youth,
Iowa was the 16th Youngest team out of 350 D1 teams. this group got a baptism in BT BB by fire.
only because you hijacked this thread to make it about Iowa, all you had to do was post in the Out Of season thread.
This is where the thread starts to go off the rails. Well before any of my posts started. All 4 of them.
but it was meant to turn this into a pissing match with you. most in this thread knew that.
