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

[The Full Monte]

I’m kind of wondering what Nunge’s career arc looks like at Iowa...wondering where he fits in, or how good he can be as he develops

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I feel like Nunge has a chance to be like one of those annoying Michigan State white guys they always have. Solid on the block, get some boards, make threes, look goofy and out of place.

 

[Talkin' Goat]

I think Nunge’s upside is top 5 on this team. He’ll end up being really good IMO.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I thought he looked very comfortable at either of the two post positions last year and totally out of it at SF. He has a nice looking shot and can jump.

 

[Billy Butters]

Didn't Nunge originally start ahead of Garza? He had to impress someone. He's obviously not a SF but I still think he will be good.

Maybe I'm thinking too much into it but Fran has said in the past that he's not really a fan of the redshirt. I don't think he would redshirt an average player in his 2nd year. I think he sees the potential and didn't want to waste a year behind cook.

 

[BBK]

Nunge was lifting weights the morning of the NW game. Pretty sure he didn't travel because they chose Pemsl and Frederick for that game.

Was it hawt?

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Nunge is going to be a good one. He will hopefully get his body where it needs to be so he can play as he should as a stretch 4 next year. Fran playing him on the wing was dumb but he started a good deal of games his first year.

This is a long term play by Fran

This is kind of my question. He seems best as a stretch 4....but totally out of position as a wing or a 5

I’m wondering how that effects his ability to be used in different lineups

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Not good news on Cook likely coming.

 

[Geese]

Lol

Nothing Wade loves more than telling people he knows something that he can't tell them.

Somebody just earned an admission to the burn unit

 

[AZmessDAWG]

FTR I’m hearing the same thing.

 

[Will McCoy]

FTR I’m hearing the same thing.

Which is?

 

[Jimmie Dimmick]

Hearing what, you ass clowns?!

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I am told that Tyler needs surgery. I checked with two separate people before posting. I don’t know details but doesn’t sound good.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Amputation?

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Amputation?

Probably not @Hawk&Balls

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Fuck

 

[Hawkstrat]

I read it online.

Maybe he's getting his wisdom teeth out?

 

[Hawkstrat]

Evidently Kakert confirms bad news. Shitty.

 

[Kerky]

I am told that Tyler needs surgery. I checked with two separate people before posting. I don’t know details but doesn’t sound good.

Didn't he have x-rays at the game ruling out a fracture? If surgery is needed it would be for ligament or tendon damage?

 

[ivan_drago]

It’s going to be fine. Lots of slapdicks said Iowa is better without him.

Bring it in!

Sure, but those people are stupid.

That was my understanding.

I had something called a Brostrom procedure to reattach my ATL and it was several months of rehab.

It would seem odd to hurt tendons on an ankle roll but who knows. The biggest thing for me was that the injury tore off cartilage that they had to scope into addition to the ligament reattachment.

 

[Geese]

Has Tom said any more than this?

Tyler's going to be out for a while. Tough news. Those questioning his toughness and saying he's being overly dramatic in this thread, incorrect.

 

[Geese]

Also is Tyler still a pussy or does this news change that? Got spreadsheets that need updating.

He's right though. You post about the Hawks like a 50 year old lady trying to let all the other ladies at church know that she's heard some gossip.

Sounds like you run in some pretty wild circles

Pillow talk with your mother.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

8 weeks from today is the last regular season game. Kakert is saying it will be an extended absence. Hope for 4-6 weeks somehow I guess.

Went from having too many bigs to relying on Kriener for 20-25 minutes and needing Till to contribute.

The things that would require surgery would most likely be a complete ATFL tear (he wouldn’t be walking on that), a syndesmosis injury, or a midfoot injury (Lis Franc). Highly unlikely this would just be a scope.

What? I will basically give as much detail as I am comfortable giving. While this board requires registration enough people know me on this board that I don’t think it’s right to repeat unsubstantiated stuff.


You always have the option to use the ignore feature.

So gossip.

He’s not coming back this season if it’s a lisfranc injury. L Wade played softball on an alvused ATFL, but maybe he’s tougher than TC. High ankle sprain would be the most hopeful for a return later in the year.

No, I don’t post gossip.

This really fucking sucks. Take the redshirt off Numge.

He’s also hurt.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

This really fucking sucks. Take the redshirt off Numge.

Fran said the other day that he has a stress fracture and is out 6 weeks so that's not an option.

 

[Dr. Zaius]

Well, fuck

 

[Billy Butters]

This really fucking sucks. Take the redshirt off Numge.

Isn't he out 6 weeks? Scooped.

 

[douglasbader]

Riley fuckin Till. Fuck.

Just say "this is unsubstantiated" and then tell us the thing.

There are like fifty people on this whole fucking board and all of us know what "unsubstantiated" means.

 

[Billy Butters]

My only hope is that with more minutes Kriener becomes less of a spaz and maybe lets the game come to him a bit. He has spurts where he looks capable but this sucks.
