Fran has lost the team, officially.

So do you play talented guys who don't care or play hard anymore (like Cook and Dailey), or do you make your lineup:
JorBo
Baer
Ellingson
Kreiner
Pemsl

I have to admit, I am a fan of the way Baer wins loose balls. Even yesterday when they were down 20 in the blink of an eye the kid makes plays...it's just that after he gets the ball it's still the rest of his team and Baer that has to score it.

If Cook was playing his hardest yesterday his next level plans are really in trouble. He had more turnovers than points and rebounds combined at the end of the first half. If he's not playing his hardest than Fran's future is really doomed because that disinterest will spread from your best player. I'd love to see a practice these last few weeks to see the attitudes.

Any line-up they come up with is ****** defensively.

So Hoks get the Badgers next.

What will O/U be on this game? 52 I predict, which was total from their football game.

I will give Herky some love and predict a ToE win - 27-25. In 2 OTs

Wisconsin is pretty awful. Iowa will probably struggle to score, but Wisconsin will struggle to get much separation from them. My guess is that Iowa has enough runs that they end up winning by 6 to 8. They had better win at least 2 of the next 3, because then they go into a stretch that passes as tough (for the Big 10).

The results will be the same. There isn't a lot of talent on the team anyway.

I see that some of the hawk faithful have turned on their coach's son, and are tweeting at him telling him his dad should be fired. Patrick can't help but respond angrily.

This is fine. A real recipe for success

Some of the hawks? When a player has said they all suck a fat one, it’s ALL.

I can’t wait to be a grown man and tweet at high school kids about firing their dads! it must be really fun I am so excited!

If Fran somehow ends up not coming back next year or the one after, it's going to be ugly. His kids will transfer out, but I have a feeling they're going to go scorched Earth. And the Hawkeye faithful will not hesitate for a second before they start eating their own. It's going to be damned funny to watch. #Rightway

those (future/present) player/fan exchanges are bad for everyone involved. Pat needs to not bring attention to it, wrong move by him.

Hope the hawk trolls here are defending Patrick from these scum hawk fans on twitter.

This is a business Patrick. Better get a backbone or going to be a long Hawkeye career. Fran is fine, things will get better

Shut the hell up tell your brother to get healthy or quit

Replying to @patrickmccaff22
Literally why would we want to fire your dad, though? It’s a fluke season. Happens to the best of them. So what? Next game.


These are my favs so far.
1. Get a backbone
2. Tell your bro to quit
3. Fluke season for a guy with a career losing Big 10 record in 8 years.
