I wonder how the boys will react when they play meaningful minutes for him? Sometimes kids see a different side when they are grouped with other kids and feel the heat that others have.

Honest question, do any of the Hawkeye fans here know what the scholarship distribution for next year is supposed to be? I see 14 guys with scholarships and that doesn't even include Connor McCaffrey. Is the plan for the McCaffrey boys to stay off scholarship? (understandable since Dad is a millionaire and it frees up openings for more guys). So at least one guy has to go, I just wondered if it was common knowledge to those who follow the team who will be leaving after this year, or is it just unknown but one of those things you trust the staff to get worked out? Thanks.
EDIT: Nevermind, the chart I saw still had Christian Williams on it and he transferred.

Let's play a game. If you can fill in the blanks in this anonymous quote, you can figure out the answer to your question.
"I saw him play on the circuit and he is a better player now than the last time I saw him. I think you have to give Coach _______ and his coaching staff a lot of credit for that. Players get better here at ______. He’s a good coach.”
Who do you think it is about?
I thought they'd do better with close attention Fran provided:
This would have to be an easy picture for other coaches to recruit against Iowa with. What parent in their right mind would say this is a good look?
He's an easy scout. No range and pet moves on offense. He's also short for his position.
Other than that he's a beast.
Not at all, just have never heard of a grown man using the term raisin face. Not to mention you didnt even spell raisin correctly.
But you are also leaving off Marble, White, Uthoff and Jok who all became first team all league players under Fran. 3 of those 4 were very lightly recruited players in terms of P5 offers.

The Hawkeyes have been vulnerable on defense, ranking 223rd in Ken Pomeroy’s adjusted statistical measurements. That is the lowest of any major-college team. Big Ten opponents are making 50 percent of their shots against Iowa and are averaging 84.5 points per game.

THT needs to be 57 or higher on 247 rating to jump JW current composite ranking. Any decrease in JW or add'l increase in THT other ratings closes that gap. I think they will end up within 10 spots of each other so it really doesn't matter. Both are good players but I would rather have THT. He is younger with more future growth potential. JW is a very good player now but I am not sure how much better he can get. What you get his freshman year may be what you have his senior year too (which is still better than Iowa currently has). Or I could be completely wrong . . . .
I even held a coaching seminar in Carroll going over all the ways that Fran can't coach.
It's like talking to a brick wall.

I'm pretty sure I said he was spotty. Fran seems to be good for about 1 guy a year that he actually develops. The rest of the guys seem to be on their own.
I know I'll never forget where I was at on 12/7/17 when the Cyclone Alley Massacre went down.

Step #1: Yell at your players.
Step #2: Yell louder.
Step #3: Buy an eggplant.
Step #4: Use your bathroom mirror to practice tantrums until your face can achieve the same color as the eggplant.
Step #5: Repeat, buying additional eggplants as needed.
Step #6: Make sure eggplants average at least 15 minutes/game.
Step #7: ?
Step #8: Profit
