**2021 Iowa Basketball Offseason Thread**

[Hawkstrat]

Is Connor just going to be the security blanket emergency PG? I just have no clue as to where he fits.

 

[Hawkstrat]

Rebracca is essentially Nunge

Nunge is a better defender and athlete.

 

[HawkLax6]

At least we don't have to wait until October to find out who next year's online whipping boy by the fans will be.

 

[Revolver]

Ahron Ulis should log more minutes than anyone at PG next year. If that is the priority for the team like I hope it is, then I’ll welcome bohannon back with open arms. The roster is devoid of shooting as it stood before today.

 

[26.2]

Jesus Christ. This entire post is bad, Brad! BAD BRAD!!!!

Take it easy on Brad. I don't want him changing his user name yet again to hide from the shame.

@Bubba Sparxxx talkin’ shit

Discussing HALO off HALO should get you kicked out

In the outfield.

 

[Greg Obrecht]

I would guess that Connor is going to back up multiple positions.

 

[Verbal]

Connor is going to start at the 4 and people are going to hate it.

Joe T/Ulis
bohannon/Perkins/Sandfort
Keegan/Patrick
Connor/Kris
Filip/Josh O/Mulvey

 

[Bob Sanders]

Connor is going to start at the 4 and people are going to hate it.

Joe T/Ulis
bohannon/Perkins/Sandfort
Keegan/Patrick
Connor/Kris
Filip/Josh O/Mulvey

I wonder when people are going to figure out that Kris is more of a guard than Keegan is?

 

[26.2]

Nunge is a better defender and athlete.

That's not what I'm hearing.

 

[The Tin Man]

Toussaint / Ulis / Connor
bohannon / Perkins / Sandfort
Keegan / Patrick
Rebraca / Kris
Ogundele / Mulvey

Flip flop Mulvey and Ogundele and I think it is a highly likely starting lineup. I could also see them go small, ideally with Ulis beating out Joe T:

Ulis / Toussaint / Connor
bohannon / Perkins / Sandfort
Sandfort / Patrick / Keegan
Keegan / Kris / Patrick / Rebracha
Rebraca / Mulvey / Ogundele

 

[CamelTones]

CJ Fredrick can suck a fat one.

Iowa's offense is pretty flexible in terms of the traditional spots. If Kris is similar to to Keegan, just have those two spell each other and then have the McCaffery boys spell each other.

 

[CamelTones]

bohannon had stopped going to class because he had already graduated and now has to catch up to make sure he passes his classes in 2 weeks so he can be eligible for next year.

That’s about as COVID year as it gets.

Win.
Graduate.
Do things the right way.
Skip a semester of classes.
Work for three weeks and pass a semester's worth of classes.

Josh O and Joe T are probably the 2 guys without any positional flexibility. The rest of the roster can play at least 2 positions.

Connor continues to be an odd fit for the current roster. He could play a couple spots but it mostly feels like he’s blocking someone else with higher upside from seeing the floor and is coming off of double hip surgery. You’d like to think he would be the heady player to close out games but he’s also a terrible free throw shooter.

I do think they have enough shooting now assuming Sandfort is ready and Kris Murray is at least close to as good as they’ve said he is from the outside.

I didn't realize JBo was in law school.

When we see him play enough to have an opinion about that.

I’m always curious what players like him have for a class load.

Covid super senior year doesn't count against scholarship limits.

NCAA Extra Year of Eligibility

Learn more about the NCAA decision to grant an extra year of eligibility relief to Division 1, 2 and 3 athletes due to COVID-19.

This shouldn’t be allowed for kids who played entire seasons

corks to quasars??? is it a wine tasting class?

 

[BBK]

Joe T is the 🗝

 

[Brad Wesley]

Wait, aren’t you the guy that is an ardent defender of a habitual drunk driver, thief, and grifter?

Glad you found time to remove Levi’s cock from your mouth to participate in this discussion.

Is Sandfort that good?

Is Sandfort that good?

 

[Shawneemicks]

No

 

[Debit One]

Sandfort is not going to start over Patrick.

 

[Kerky]

I know it won't be the "starters", but I could see the lineup of:

Ulis
Perkins
Patrick
Keegan
Rebraca

being the most successful eventually next year.

Changing your user name multiple times is a way bigger sin than anything Levi has done.

Wut

 

[BBK]

Connor gon start.

 

[BBK]

Ulis/The Key
bohannon
Connor
Keegan
Chewbacca

Thats your starting 5.

 

[The Tin Man]

Is Sandfort that good?

I’ve seen Patrick and Connor and shoot, it’s not a high bar to clear. With Joe W gone this team will need a shooter.

 

[Hawkstrat]

Patrick is good.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Connor gon start.

nah

 

[Brad Wesley]

The Iowa basketball team is going to rival the east wing of the Shady Acres retirement home for most hip surgeries in the Midwest.

Have people been saying that Kris Murray is supposed to be a really good shooter or something? He shot 31% from three and 76% from the free throw line in his one year of prep school. Maybe he has improved drastically since, but I always thought Kris was billed as more of a slasher, rebounder and defender.

Quotes from their aau coach. Fwiw FYI

I love all the “I still hate it, but hope it works out” posts now. Lol.

 

[cloudhawk]

You dont hope it works out?

 

[Lee Beevers]

Maybe @The Incredible Hawk would know, but can Connor even have both his hips done at once? He would be legitimately an invalid for like 8 weeks if they did that right? I don’t see how Connor is really ready to play at the start of the season.

 

[CurdMan]

Joe T/Ulis
J Bo/Perkins
Patrick/Kris
Keegan/Connor
Rebraca/Mulvey

 

[CurdMan]

Does Fran try and get one more big? Only other guy I’ve heard anything about is Onu.

 

[HawkLax6]

Let's figure out the minutes for each player now.
