I do like the potential of a Bowen/Dix/Lil Sandfart benchmob

Best case scenario: one of those guys takes a hike and we get a transfer or two

It's early. Fran will have another big time transfer by June. Iowa has NIL now.

Hoping that’s not it. This team will need Bowen or Harding to be solid

Have we predicted someone that will start the season coming off the bench but will be starting once big ten season starts? That’s always a good one.

I wonder if Margaret McCaffery would be a guest HALO poster to tell us?

Is this going to be the worst rebounding and defensive team in Fran history? The portal guy they got is unathletic and can't play defense or rebound, but can score. The returning roster is all part of one of the worst defensive Iowa teams in a long time. Freeman is a freshman, and like all big men he likely needs a couple years until he is up to speed. Maybe the kid from New Jersey can rebound, but he is also a Freshman.

The defense will be noticeably worse, which is almost impossible, but here we are.

I hadn't really looked at the final roster until today. Yeah, holy shit that looks like a fucking atrocious rebounding and defensive team. Also, a grand total of 3 scholarship black athletes playing basketball in the year 2023.

Our defense and rebounding would be drastically improved if Fran didn't insist on starting Patrick and playing him 25-30 mpg.

But that's what is going to happen
Patrick is going to be ready for his junior year, and Fran is going to make sure he has him play 30+ minutes this year so he can finish off his illustrious career as a senior in 2024-2025.

I'm hoping Pat gets stronger and better over the off-season and comes back next year as an ass kicker. It could happen!

It isn’t in doubt.

On countless occasions Patrick would watch others compete for a rebound and not even try on defense yet not a fucking peep out of Fran. Nothing.

The team is going to suck big ol donkey balls next year.
