**2021 Iowa Basketball Offseason Thread**

Zero people saw it before the season. Is a single person saying they did?

It was discussed during the season and especially the end of the season multiple times. A poster on here knows a scout in an NBA front office and he said that they were tracking Keegan more than anyone on Iowa and his numbers were off the charts.

I'm not an expert at all, but I have a yearly obsession with the NBA draft, so I do spend way too much time researching draft prospects. On Dec 8th, after the unc game, I texted my friends saying keegan might be the best NBA draft prospect on this team. His combination of fluidity, explosiveness and anticipation gives him an insanely high ceiling. He just moves differently. If he was a five star prospect instead of an unknown, he'd be a lottery pick this year. His defense is great already; so great he surprised the refs into a ton of bad calls this season. He showed flashes on offense, but if he can improve his shot and tighten up his handle he will be an absolute star next season. Lack of spacing and more attention from defenses will be a challenge for him though. It should be fun to watch.

Shocking stuff

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

I would laugh my fucking ass off if KY decided that CJ wasn't worth the bad PR and told him to look elsewhere.

"Sorry, your uncle fucked this all up."

Dirty stuff happens in college basketball???? Who could have imagined????

Gimme a break with this shit, Dick.

There’s a chance Calipari doesn’t even know CJ is white.

Wasn’t there some massive investigation with federal subpoenas and shit that yielded exactly zero serious penalties for the coaches and schools involved what like 7 weeks ago? And somehow we think anyone is going to give a fuck at all about “tampering?”

I’m concerned that College basketball is fucked as we know it

Will Wade is on tape talking about paying players while at LSU and just coached LSU in the NCAA tournament with no penalty.

 

[Shawneemicks]

College basketball is dead.

Football probably not far behind.

 

[Fletch]

When UNC didn’t get hammered after their academic scandal, it was clear there really aren’t any rules.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

The players, who become fans after they are done playing, want all this freedom and ability to make money and are being total bitches about it, which will slowly cause the money to dry up as fans are less interested in the sport.

Is college sports perfect? No, but it’s nice. And people just can’t have nice things.

 

[cloudhawk]

Seems that college athletes don't want to go pro in something other than sports.

OK, but this transfer portal is just opening up another avenue for more of this BS

I think chane was criticizing Dick for calling this out but not all of the other cheating that goes on all the time.

 

[Shawneemicks]

I hope folks realize there’s a point where athletics are no longer associated with schools. Basically AAU.

The product isn't good enough for that.

The product isn't good enough for that.

No one cares without the school affiliation. G League is the prime example.

Lol, above it all

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

The REAL victim!!!

 

[Pedro]

Lol, above it all

I don't think this message is going to have the reaction Joe is looking for.

 

[CamelTones]

Is CJ transferring or is Joe Fredrick transferring?

 

[26.2]

Someone on twitter should GET HIM!!!

Totally normal for a college kid’s uncle to have all the inside information. What a jackass.

 

[CamelTones]

Just lol at ‘concerns throughout the season’

Fuck off.

 

[Verbal]

I sometimes run into my uncle at Hy-Vee. We say hello and move on. It's never occurred to me to ask him to manage my affairs.

The norm seems to lie somewhere in between CJ/Joe’s and Verbal/UncleVerbal’s relationship.

Not in terms of life management.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Those @The Full Monte posts during the season read just a bit differently now. I can imagine how Uncle Joe‘s clear communication with the staff about his concerns went.

 

[Dr. Zaius]

Fuck that guy

 

[scottsdalehawk]

Suck a fat one Joe you liar.

 

[Dr. Zaius]

Also, lol at him trying to spin this. Clearly there was tampering going on, hopefully UK does pull the chair out from under them

 

[Fletch]

The one that talks the most is usually the person that is in the wrong or has the most to hide.

 

[cloudhawk]

Which is nicer this time of the year...Eastern or Western Kentucky?

 

[The Dad]

“Iowa basketball treated CJ Fredrick so poorly” is fucking insanity.

Did he just admit to tampering in an attempt to say there was no tampering?

 

[SuperHans]

Somebody needs to sign this guy up for this

 

[BngHawk]

Uncles gone wild

 

[KitKatApples]

I totally told the Iowa staff that the rumors I was spreading about CJ weren't true and then they all happened.

 

[BngHawk]

Twitter gold is being mined as we speak.

Make sure he doesn't tell your wife

 

[BngHawk]

Lol

 

[iowa4ever20]

Took a spin through Joe’s public Facebook. Huge fucking douchebag. Found this tweet as well. Yea, I’m sure there was no tampering Joe...
