Is the end goal to field a lineup made up of guys from the stretch of I80 from Iowa City to Bettendorf?

 

[hawkeyealum]

What a fucking dork

My first reaction when I saw the picture of them together before reading the tweet was that Baer must have been doing some work with special needs kids.

 

[douglasbader]

Maybe L. Wade was right, they took it down.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Maybe @nolookpass was right and fran loves white dudes?

Maybe Sherm, Speraw, and the boys like balling lot lizards at the Iowa 80 Truckstop in Walcott as much as the rest of us.

oh no not a walk on

The original tweet from Iowa Barstool is gone.

It’s still up on their Instagram account.

Good for Tyler. They made up a bunch of shit that made life complicated for him.

 

[Geese]

If

 

[CurdMan]

Against his will

 

[CurdMan]

But really, this makes a lot of sense and I’m glad Moss is doing it

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Well, those comments from moss were very positive.

[Hawkstrat]

I can't recall a player so open to talking about a potential transfer.

 

[Wanderer]

What’s Kakert’s latest over/under?

 

[CurdMan]

I can't recall a player so open to talking about a potential transfer.

Me either. And it seems pretty obvious he’s going to wait and see what Cook does. Pretty much exactly what @douglasbader has said guys would do. And it’s ok for Iowa. Ideally, you want Pemsl to stick around either way, but it’s not a big deal if he’s gone and Cook stays, because I think it would really benefit Nunges development.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

What's best for him includes gaining 30 pounds back

 

[Billy Butters]

Lol, at least he's consistent at being douche and an attention whore on and off the court. Just move on, if this means I don't have to watch Nunge or Baer play another minute at SF I'm good with it.

 

[douglasbader]

He's waiting to see if Cook comes back. Not that hard to figure out.

 

[douglasbader]

Scooped!

[L. Wade Childress]

His comments were fine. I would rather have someone speak their mind.

It’s no secret that he wants more playing time and the staff knows it.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Also I think Kriener is staying. There was a scenario where he ended up at Drake but it didn’t play out.

 

[douglasbader]

From the sound of everything, I wouldn't expect any grad transfers. Most of the best ones have decided or are deciding soon and Iowa hasn't been mentioned. Maybe they get a JUCO, but nothing yet and signing day starts tomorrow.

They are most likely going to have what we see right now with either Cook coming back and Pemsl leaving or Cook leaving and Pemsl staying.

 

[Hawkstrat]

If an assistant were to leave, would it have happened by now? I guess what I'm asking is when is the Final Four being held, we'll know more then.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Completely unrelated but I’m not starting a 2021 girls thread. From what I can gather the McCaffery girl must be a really good athlete. She played varsity softball as an 8th grader and appears to be a varsity golfer as a freshman. So, that’s cool I guess.

I thought he wasn’t going to class, L Wade...

 

[CamelTones]

Why would Pemsl just leave if Cook comes back for another year instead of just using his redshirt year at Iowa?

I guess he did mention Garza, Kriener and Nunge so could be he just wants to go somewhere where he is guaranteed 25-30 minutes.

There isn't a player in college basketball that wants to redshirt their junior year at the same school.

What if Cook comes back again?

Also completely unrelated but I gave her a ride home the other night. My wifes sister is friends with her and their house is stupid nice. They have a 6 car garage and 4 stalls is just used as a basketball court instead

How tall is she?

Let's think about the timeline for when things need to happen. The deadline for Cook to withdraw his name is May 30th. He'll most likely withdraw (assuming he does) mid-May would be my guess. The number of teams that Pemsl would have to choose from dwindles daily.

I just wonder how much of it has to do with Cook. Maybe he's just thinking of quitting altogether?

 

[hawkeyealum]

If Cook withdraws I assume there is still a fairly decent chance he doesn't come back so I'm not sure what Pemsl is contemplating.

Reading way too much into Pemsls comments I think his frustration is more with Cook than Iowa. It seems no one knows if Cook will be back regardless of his NBA evaluation. The whole situation is kinda odd.

Yeah I get the feeling Cook wants to be done with college basketball

Well yeah because he entered his name in the draft. All this other stuff came from guys like Harty, Dochterman, Kakert. It makes people think that it's more involved than it needs to be.

 

[Revolver]

I love everyone's take on what Moss and Cook are feeling.

 

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

I think Cook and Moss will both be back and greatly improved/motivated and the Hawks will win the fuckin I am a giant douche next season. That’s my motha fuckin take, @Revolver!
