Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster

  • After Iowa State won the Big 12, a Cyclone made a wonderful offer to We Will that now increases our match. Now all gifts up to $400,000 between now and the Final 4 will be matched. Please consider giving at We Will Collective.

Don't most feel that he probably won't ever really play PG at ISU? Weiler Babb will be there next year and most ISU fans feel that Wigginton will go pro after next year right?
I don't know what you consider "most" but I don't see it yet.

I don't know what to think about Wigginton playing PG. I guess i'd consider him more of a "combo" guard that is more of a 2 guard that can play the 1 if needed.

Just so happens that he's kind of forced to play PG right now.

Can get back to Tyler Cook & the Mid-Major.
Are they playing at a Honky-tonk or tavern anytime soon?

I think they are playing here soon:

NBAdraft.net which isn't always reliable as Wigginton as a late first round pick next year.

I'm really curious about that. Someone posted a stat that Garza was one of the worst defensive players in all of college basketball and those included all the bottom tier conferences and mid majors

We all know all-conference awards are only based on offense no matter how poor a player is on defense.

"...Tyler Cook and a mid-major roster."

That's the most accurate description of that team I've read.
I think it's far too kind. Some of those guys certainly aren't mid-major talent, they are much lower.

My guess is (ideally) Babb will play less point next year, where he could slide back into a 3-4 role.

But....for that to happen, Wigginton needs to develop into the PG role...

His rating is 105.7, which is pretty bad. Niang's senior year he posted a 104.7, which was also really bad just for a point of reference.
