That's fine, and I get it because how well Luka is playing now. But do you think Fran's track record at the time for development was good?

Well he did take 4 guys that were lower ranked recruits than Garza and made them 1st team all conference players.

You just need to pick a team. It's not a difficult question to understand.

You don't think the February fade is coming? It's happened with much better teams than one that starts the back court of Joe Toussaint and Connor McCaffrey

Schedule definitely gets harder in February.

None of those Fran teams had a possible first team All American on it.

So is that a yes or a no? I'm not trolling or arguing, just asking if you think Fran had a good track record at developing players?
Kirk obviously and rightfully so gets a lot of credit for developing football players, haven't heard much about Fran doing it.

I think he has been better at it than he gets credit for. He isn't great but I would call him good at it.

Uthoff was considered a first team All American going into February the year they had the Fran fade

How'd you disagree with this @HawkJRP? I just posted an article from Jan 25th that said Iowa was a projected 1 seed and Uthoff was a potential first team All American
