You can make BANK over seas. People don't realize that. Far more money than you can make playing as an end of the bench guy in the NBA.This is such an underrated part of the whole Luka saga. As a first generation American on his mother’s side he isn’t counted against the American player cap in Eurobasket. So he will get tremendous offers from the highest level European teams. Guys who fit that category are really valuable.

I selfishly hope he stays put and is able to play this season. No matter what the outcome of the season is for the Hawks, I just want to watch him play because I enjoy the hell out of it. It made watching Hawkeye basketball games must see TV at my house for the first time in a long while.Garza played in it his sophomore year but yes, it would certainly be incredibly unlucky that he didn't get a shot to play in the tournament the two years he was playing at his highest level. If Iowa would've made a little run on the back of Luka last year, that would've helped his exposure too.
Might want to double check your stuff here.
We know how you feel.. We've gone through this many times, including this year with Tyrese. My mindset has always been go get paid young man.I selfishly hope he stays put and is able to play this season.

Wow. Big swing and a miss here.Would be a real shame if Fran lucked* into recruiting a legitimate NPOY, and he never plays in the NCAA Tournament.

Oh stop, crazy things have happened in the tournament.Lol stop it

Garza is not someone you forget. If he leaves, his legacy will always be "what could've been". That sucks but seems like it'll be the reality of it.Not really. Garza was a nice young player, but completely forgettable. Clearly. You have to admit it would sting if you have a 1st team AA caliber player, and he never plays at that level in the tourney.

I'm sure he's going to be remembered more for his tremendous junior year and not his first two years.Unless you're an Iowa fan, Luka Garza was a forgettable player as a freshman and sophomore. A nice player, but forgettable.

That's not how you stated it to begin with. Fran also didn't "luck" into him. He was in on him early. Fran also thinks every player he recruits could be an AA. He just happened to be right this time. If you want to question anything it would be how much credit Fran deserves for his development.Not really. Garza was a nice young player, but completely forgettable. Clearly.
