I also don’t think AAU is the devil like some but it’s pretty garbage basketball all things considered.

AAU is defense is optional and only showcases the stars on certain teams that these evaluators pay attention to ignoring 90% of the other players, after the 1st 25, the next are hard to judge out of the 1000's of players as to who is a 2*, 3* and 4*'s its why teams like WSU, Butler and even Illinois-Chicago reach the FF,

ITS the coaches that spend countless hours watching and evaluating players that FIT THEIR SYSTEM whose opinions that matter, not some biased over rated evaluators opinion.

coaches like Painter and Bielien that recruit players that fit their system and have the success that they had, even Fran recruits player that fit his system.
his 1st 3 seasons he was in rebuild mode, in the last 6 seasons he has quided Iowa to 4 NCAAT and a 3-4 record and 3 more NIT's with a NIT Championship appearance. the future is getting brighter with the improved talent level in Iowa getting more of them instate.

the last couple years, before that the defenses were anywhere as high as 33rd to as low as 75th, get the defense back to those levels and that will be just fine, the only time the defense was better was under Lick and he won 15 BT games in 3 seasons,

now if your team lost like that but had a low adjusted Defense or would you rather have a winning record and was fun to watch a high scoring game. which would you prefer?

sadley the defense has been a joke the last few years, but with Fran hiring a coach that stresses defense and recruiting and getting comnmitments from defensive minded players, getting the top 50 or higher is a strong and realistic out come,

put Fran's offensive mindset with a defensive mind set Coach with better recruits will = better success,

sometimes a staff change can improve the team, AC Sprewell will be the next to leave thru retirement, I expect to be replaced by a young coach just getting started. like Wisconsin did with Oliver,
 
*drunk post warning*

Duncan Robinson might have the best NBA storyline going right now. D3 scrub turned "just a 3-point college shooter" turned legit NBA rotation player with real upside.

ahhh the great I know who others are. how can I post on a site I have been banned from? answer that one for me.

when a person gets banned they can't post, at least as far as I know, any mod reading this care to explain how anyone can post when their name has been banned?

He made the list of top performers from Day 1 at the Peach Jam from the 247 guys. Would guess he has a good chance to make the top 100 next time they update rankings.

The rivals guys make it seem like he’ll be around top 50 over there when they update again.

Wouldn’t surprise me. He picked a good time to elevate his game. He averaged 16.6 ppg, shot 40% from 3, and 50% from the field.
 
question on Kiyron Powell from Benjamin Bosse. is he a Center or a PF? any info or opinions welcome.

ps keep your BS about he's not going to Iowa to yourselves.

very skinny and raw center. Loads of potential. Indiana and Purdue have been waiting to watch him develop a little bit more and just hasn't happened enough for either team to offer.

He might end up at Iowa because the other big time programs surrounding him have decided to pass to this point.

And we’ll hear all about how Purdue and IU missed out on him a la Jack Nunge lol.

careful of that Big Time Program Bull shit. if Iowa gets Foster, Fran can afford to take him. have yet to see any film on him to make any kind of opinion. he could be another Olaseni in the making who can play the 4 or 5.

6'9 and athletic would fit in as when he would step foot onto campus these would be around him on the team
7' Nunge
6'11 Garza
6'8 Pemsyl
6'8 Patrick
plus whoever Fran gets
maybe 7' Foster

so he can ease into rotation and not have to put pressure on himself

Nunge was just a FR and RS'd last season, these were his main stats as a FR
25 Blocks and 21 steals,

as for scoring he did finish in a T-5th behind these as DBL Digit scorers
SO Cook
FR Garza
SO Jordan
RSSO Moss

not much need for him to be a scorer, which seems to be the only thing you look at.

Oh calm down that wasn’t a shot just a fact.

If Powell could play the four more programs would be in on him currently. The chance to develop is there and I would certainly take a chance on him if the scholarships are available.

I’d rather he didn’t go to Iowa though as I like to see Indiana kids who go elsewhere succeed. (This is a shot)

It’s simple. He’s an average player who wasn’t good enough for IU or Purdue.

he is listed as #149 by Rivals JFYI.

not much into Rival but a top 150 is good enough for your 2 programs. also 247 shows him warm to Iowa and cool to everyone else.

now if some one can come up with a video to show so I can form my own opinion.
oh 1 note on Nunge when Fran started to recruit him he was a 6'7/8 SF and now he is a 7'0+ player,

I actually like Nadal. I don’t hate any of the big 3. The only tennis player I don’t really like is Serena after her temper tantrum last year.

I appreciate Nadal coming back from his injuries to get back to top form.

I just have a buddy who actively roots for Nadal and doesn’t like Federer, so that shifted my feeling haha
