Seemingly never ending Iowa MBB thread (still going.....)

[NoCreativity]

Or someone could go back through this thread and collect all the post saying Iowa would raise their fans hopes with a late run at the tourney only to implode crushing those dreams in the opening game of Big 10 tourney. Actually surprised they expected anything different.

Bonus points for also predicting the Mad Fran Meltdown that would inevitably take place.

There was an article in the Des Moines Register a couple days ago where Jok and a couple other players were quoted this year would be different in the Big 10 tourney. They said they are playing their best basketball of the year as opposed to struggling down the stretch the last few years. Then they promptly go out and suffer a complete beatdown at the hands of another NIT team.

Oops!!!

You've got to be shitting me?! I can list 100 teams more dangerous that undisciplined train wreck of a basketball team. Iowa is more dangerous than Indiana, of course most of their danger is to themselves.

Is that from the same genus as Bill Walton?

I was afraid things might be getting a little testy around here.

What would be funny though is if this thread is shared with potential Iowa recruits:

They do that with a lot of their seniors. Uthoff, Woody, Gesell, McCabe, and Basabe just to name a few. Can't wait to run them out of town.

Will be interesting to see who they throw under the bus next year. I don't think they have a junior returning that will be worthy of all-american, first round NBA draft praise early in the season. Bohannon or Cook may have to step up as a sophomore and take one for the team. Wonder if they could run the same player out of town 3 years in a row?

Yeah, that will be a conundrum for the fans. Still, I feel confident that they'll persevere, buckle down, and find a way to blame Lick when they lose games.

Even with this history, I just can't believe the garbage I have heard about Jok. I don't know what his options were when NBA didn't want him last year, but given the way they have treated him and the injuries and playing with injuries, can't help but wonder if he would have been better off playing elsewhere, whether D League or Europe if those were options. Plus the whole four years with Mad Fran.

They started a thread on that, too:

Funny that this is almost identical to how they treated Roy Devyn Marble on his way out.

Jesus Christ. You guys are seriously pathetic. This is why it's embarrassing to be a Hawk fan some days.

I forgot about Marble. Yeah, he got similar treatment. Interesting to see how they handle things versus over here. I don't seem to recall many "Better off without Ejim/Georges/Scotty/etc" threads.

ROTFL

Moss had a better Freshman campaign than Jok's sophomore year. I think he is going to be the wing of the future and the future is bright
