Leistikow had an article in the paper the other day talking about Uthoff training in Vegas and Uthoff basically said that his personality leads him to be a role player (i.e. because of the late game crap). Nothing wrong with being a role player, but I'm not sure that should be an attitude that one strives for.
Speaking of Leistikow, it's embarrassing how in the bag he is for Iowa. It's like what I would write about Iowa State if I was 12 and writing my own blog. I don't know that I've read an article that he's written that isn't an unnecessary love fest about Iowa. Frankly, it is like Iowa has their own PR person writing articles for the Register.
Some of his articles over the past few years are hilariously wrong in hindsight, he probably should be writing for The Onion.
