Connor McCaffery fucking sucks in every single way and can't wait to see him get the fuck out of Iowa City for a long time.
At least have the balls to tag @L. Wade ChildressThe narrative that makes me want to put my face through my monitor is the one that states Iowa's ineptitude on defense is a natural and unavoidable consequence of how awesome they are at offense.
What is your opinion on what we should expect out of Patrick next year? Because fuck me, but I have a really hard time being excited about the 23-24 team knowing Fran is going to “showcase” PatrickConnor McCaffery fucking sucks in every single way and can't wait to see him get the fuck out of Iowa City for a long time.
I would expect that he is exactly the same player he has always been. 5 games a year he will give you 24 points, the rest will be a mix of barely anything and high teens and all points in between. Zero defense. Zero rebounding.What is your opinion on what we should expect out of Patrick next year?

Don't forget about horrible defense.I would expect that he is exactly the same player he has always been. 5 games a year he will give you 24 points, the rest will be a mix of barely anything and high teens and all points in between. Zero defense. Zero rebounding.
Really? I always thought you were a Conor advocate.Connor McCaffery fucking sucks in every single way and can't wait to see him get the fuck out of Iowa City for a long time.
but it is, given our talent level. Iowa state is no different, just opposite.The narrative that makes me want to put my face through my monitor is the one that states Iowa's ineptitude on defense is a natural and unavoidable consequence of how awesome they are at offense.

and uncommitted and endless baseline jogging.Don't forget about horrible defense.
"Fran said the f word once in front of my grandson!"Swarm guy tempering portal expectations and alludes to fundraising for basketball not being anywhere close to football. I imagine Fran being so polarizing makes it a lot more difficult
I believe that is why I put "zero defense".Don't forget about horrible defense.
I think Stink said that for emphasis. It was worth repeating.I believe that is why I put "zero defense".
People just like football more than basketball, which is fine. But I can't imagine buying chef Brian better ingredients.Swarm guy tempering portal expectations and alludes to fundraising for basketball not being anywhere close to football.

fifyI believe that is why I put "less than zero defense".
ok. I guess our mediocre players should just try harder.It is not.
Correct.ok. I guess our mediocre players should just try harder.
*not run to the incorrect places on the floorok. I guess our mediocre players should justtry harder.
My god you're a stupid cocksucking faggot.ok. I guess our mediocre players should just try harder.
Since this social media site is fueled by anger and resentment, I don't expect you to understand this. After all, an overactive amygdala will often override the frontal lobes, as is so often the case on social media. But here goes............again:The narrative that makes me want to put my face through my monitor is the one that states Iowa's ineptitude on defense is a natural and unavoidable consequence of how awesome they are at offense.
You basically just typed out the dumb thing again in longer words that you thought sounded smart.Since this social media site is fueled by anger and resentment, I don't expect you to understand this. After all, an overactive amygdala will often override the frontal lobes, as is so often the case on social media. But here goes............again:
If you want to be great on offense with marginal talent/athleticism like Iowa has, you need to run all kinds of motion, cutting, etc.
If you want to be great on defense with marginal talent/athleticism like Iowa has (like ISU, for instance), you're going to be as physical as possible on that end.
Now this is the part you really need to focus on:
If you're going to be as physical as possible on defense, you simply won't be able to be able run the aforementioned type of action on offense that it takes to be great with marginal talent. This is because -and I know this is the hard part to accept because it doesn't allow you to get all ragey at the players for not trying hard -the energy required to be as physical as it takes to be great on defense simply doesn't allow for that type of offensive action. In terms of energy expenditure, you can't have your cake and eat it too. I understand that you don't want this to be true. Many people can't accept facts that get in the way of their feelings.
This also explains Fran's statement early in his tenure about how he was an offensive-minded coach. Now why would he say something like that if one end has nothing to do with the other?
I just want his Siena team. I was hoodwinked. Assumed we’d eventually get that with better players. Similarly, a young Will assumed if Fuckface could take SWMS to the S16 then Iowa had elite 8 and final 4 potential.Fran’s system is too reliant on hot shooting and a fairly tight whistle for an NCAA run, imo. It can generate really fun moments, but that’s its ceiling. He’ll never adapt.

I’m an idiot and Iowa is where dreams go to die.

You assumed Mikey was saying that one end has nothing to do with the other, something he never said.Oh man, when do I get to learn of this mysterious fundamental assumption????

Dude, you moved the goal posts in your long winded post.Well at least goalposts are already being moved. I feel good. I feel noble.
His team profiles are basically the same as what they were at Siena. Play fast, don’t turn it over, don’t foul, shooting defenses not great.I just want his Siena team. I was hoodwinked. Assumed we’d eventually get that with better players. Similarly, a young Will assumed if Fuckface could take SWMS to the S16 then Iowa had elite 8 and final 4 potential.

Fran does have a daughterIf Fran had daughters and not sons Iowa basketball would be in a great position. Unfortunately Fran had 3 boys and we're stuck with his offspring for about 12 years it seems.
He thinks his sons are much much better than they actually are. I'm guessing Marge isn't helping the situation. Connor playing the whole game (only reason he came out was he got a boo boo right before half) is unforgiveable. Fran needs to go. I appreciate what he's done, but it's just time to move on.
You could argue multiple.Fran does have a daughter
The over hedging has to stop. How can Fran not see this is the most retarded thing since @CleteyColgateThey are a rim protector and point guard away from having a good enough defense.
Twice as many as Sandfart.Connor played 30 minutes yesterday, not 38. This keeps showing up that he played the whole game but it is not true. He still sucked however.
He’s not Pat?What positives does Connor currently bring?
Passes the ball wellWhat positives does Connor currently bring?
Far too often too Rebecca, howeverPasses the ball well
He had 20 points on 12 shots.Far too often too Rebecca, however
And?Far too often too Rebecca, however
