Fran McCaffery and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Transfer Portal

[iahawks]

Not sure THAT was the biggest problem here…..

Just trying to ease the pain is all. Congrats on the pickup.

Fran's really running out of time and options. I know they were pushing for a visit from the St Bonaventure big we're also interested in.

Another miss for Fran in the portal. This one really stings.

Iowa fans should have prepped themselves for this when Connor said he was coming back.

This thread really needs the Fran "f**k!" gif right now.

They must not see value in his body of work.

JLH is pretty fired up about ISU's get from the portal today.

They are desperate for Kris to come back to keep them from sucking. Normally a coach would tell a kid like that to go get his and not risk watching his stock fall if he doesn’t duplicate his brother’s production next year. Fran can’t afford to do that because he can’t land a decent transfer to save his life.

Well, my twin brother was All-State runner in high school. I quit the team after two weeks. I was All-Conf in basketball, he couldn't make a layup. So, you know, Kris will for sure duplicate Keegan's improvement and game since twins are exact copies.

Not to bag on you, but do you have an identical twin? If not, you're no more closely related than two non-twin sibs.

I don't remember Iowa only being down 10 at any point in the second half.

The transfer portal doesn't mix with recruiting family legacies and kids whose families grew up worshiping Iowa football.

Well this was only :57 in. I believe 2-3 minutes later the slaughter was in full bloom.

I have blocked this game out of my memory so thanks for the reminder.

 

[Rural]

what does Iowa's lineup look like if Kris stays in the draft?

4A consolation game.

Here we go...

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I am honestly thinking that if Ogundele can work himself back into shape and Mulvey takes a substantial step forward, that Iowa doesn’t necessarily need another 5 in addition to the two of them and Rebraca… and would be shocked if there is somebody out there still that will provide significant value beyond what we have. Maybe if somebody enters the portal later on then that could change
