**2018-2019 Iowa Hawkeyes Basketball Season Thread**

[Swingin' Dick Stanzi]

My only legitimate concern with Weiskamp at this point is that his his shooting percentage and misses on open shots is higher than it should be. One of his FTs attempts looked funky too. Would hate for there to be a mental/confidence issue which is harder to bounce back from than just having to get adjusted to the athleticism/speed of the game at the college level.

I'm quasi with doug except that its hard to predict he'll better this year than Garza, Cook, and bohannon.

Joe tried to dunk on Bol Bol. I’m pretty sure it’s not a mental/confidence issue.

 

[KingJames]

It's fun how poorly Wieskamp has looked so far. That makes me perversely excited.

During chat during the first game of the year Doug claimed he was the second best player on the team. During the second game he said he was the best player on the team. At this point he's consensus All-American

He will end up being the second or third best player on the team.

Also, he played poorly in NYC. The first 2 games he was the best player on the court.

Shocking that a Freshman would struggle in his first big road trip.

 

[WCFHawkeye]

8 BD teams in Top 28.

9

Seriously deep league

No Illinois on that list warms the heart.

SIAP, but this is fantastic.

Jordan bohannon will end up being the Drew Tate of Iowa Basketball.

Eats all kind of shit during his four years; everybody's all-time favorite player thereafter.

 

[The Incredible Hawk]

35 years old is pretty ancient for an arena with no real character. I look at an arena that shitty Missouri State has and I would much rather go there.

Move the arena, make parking plentiful, and I think it makes a big difference.

JQH is a very nice arena. It’s embarassing that they played in the old one for so long.

Fuck no unless he suddenly leads Iowa to some huge tournament victories.

 

[The Dad]

Drew Tate ate shit for 4 years?

I loved that fucker and thought we had a chance to win every game he started for us.

 

[Tugboat]

Anyone want to buy my NCAA basketball tics for Des Moines? I completely forgot about spring break travel and now have 2 tics to unload. Hawks might be there with a top 4 seed.

 

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

Is it still an alcohol-free event?

 

[Hawk4Life25]

Is it still an alcohol-free event?

Yes (unless you are in suite/NCAA Hospitality areas)

 

[nolookpass]

Not if you wear a big coat

I will about an hour from tip-off

I’m sure someone does.

Jk. I might be interested

Agree to disagree

Anyone that talks shit about bohannon is either a tremendous faggot or has a horrible fucking memory.

I love JBo. Always have. NH

Are they 300-level?

I think Iowa is better than the 300s

 

[Mo T]

The fact bohannon has only attempted 20 3's so far, and Iowa has been dominating, is a great thing. Teams will relax on him and he will go off for 30.

One thing about this Hawkeye team, we can hurt you in so many different ways. We legitimately have five guys who can put 25 on the board any given night.

Assuming we continue to play defense, there are going to be plenty of the "death by a thousand papercut" wins that we saw in the garden.

We might need to pin something answering that question somewhere

Connor may finish grad school before he’s done playing basketball.

Initial rankings for NET, the god awful new NCAA RPI replacement

https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/basketball-men/d1/ncaa-mens-basketball-net-rankings

 

[WCFHawkeye]

Iowa is #15, seems like NET is well-researched to me.

 

[CurdMan]

Iowa is #15, seems like NET is well-researched to me.

And 12 of 14 big ten teams are in the top 83. That’s good

 

[WCFHawkeye]

Pittsburgh 23rd.

 

[CurdMan]

If you would’ve told me after the UMKC and Green Bay games...

 

[PipeDaddy]

If you would’ve told me after the UMKC and Green Bay games...

Yep. Oregon only beat Green Bay by 11 as well, so maybe GB is better than expected.

 

[The Dad]

This week will say a lot about what kind of team we’re looking at, faggots. If they come out playing as hard as they did in NYC then I think we’ll all be watching them just as hard.

I will either way.

 

[Geese]

Have you seen Riley Till?? Exactly.

 

[The Dad]

Equally as likely that they all come out strutting their shit like a bunch of Pappa We Made Its.

By all I mean everyone with the exception of Luka Garza. That fucker has dna loaded with grit.

 

[Revolver]

Get a couple of wins this week and the ragers are going to be uncontrollable.

 

[Revolver]

Seems like you may be able to put Connor McCaffery into that category, too.

That has to be counterproductive to the reproductive process.

Hopefully. Still need more proof.

So are his eyebrows and that thing he does with his tongue while shooting FTs.

Kenpom actually still has Oregon (21) above Iowa (32).

Green Bay is 194.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

When does KenPom transition off the preseason formula?
