I didn't notice that.. Incredible.Anyone else notice Austin Ash in the game on the final play? Bizarre lol
Never happenedCan we revisit it if you're wrong? lol
@ NCST - 121Never happened
If Iowa wins the games they're supposed to, they likely get 8 more wins which will be 21. With no Q1 wins or possibly 1, you're looking at a play in game at the 11 seed line.
I didn't notice that.. Incredible.
Yeah I didn't think of that. Iowa will get in unless they completely flop against the bad teams they play. I think their season could be predicated on the home game vs. Northwestern and @ Michigan.Nah, they will be firmly in, the bubble is going to be incredibly weak this year. The ACC looks like a 2 bid league which is insane.
If Iowa gets a 6 seed the system is completely flawed lol. They have one single decent win.Not if their NET stays in the top 30 or even top 25. I feel they would be a 6-9 seed at that point.
Jordan being the only other true shooter on the team hurt him tremendously too. Keegan is obviously a solid shooter but he's not floating around the 3 point line because that's not his game. When Iowa has multiple shooters on the floor, like last year with CJ, JW and Jordan, now all of a sudden the defense has to account for three threats and must scramble when helping off on Garza. Jordan was able to get a lot of easy looks the last couple of years because of that.
Iowa's going to have a shooting problem again next year too and it'll probably even worse. Sandfort will be better but how much better is the question. Right now he doesn't belong on a P5 court. Then you have Ulis and Perkins who both aren't shooters. Chris Murray is effective from out there but next year he's going to have to play the Keegan role of being around the basket to clean up shots. Having him stand at the 3 point line would be dumb. And then Toussaint just isn't good from out there. So you have Josh Dix and Dasonte Bowen, both freshman who likely won't be ready.
Well he does to an extent, but there's no one else on the Iowa roster that's a true threat from the 3 point line other than Jordan. Kris Murray to an extent, but against good defensive teams he's struggled. So Keegan kicks it out and then what?Isn’t one of the twins supposed to be a lottery pick? One would think a player of that ability would draw extra defensive attention.

Gotta play your most talented guards in crunch time.Anyone else notice Austin Ash in the game on the final play? Bizarre lol

The fact that Iowa is currently #25 in Net despite not having a single Q1 win shows that the formula is putting way too much weight into offensive efficiency. In all 4 of their Q4 losses Iowa basically got their lunch handed to them. Ironically offensive efficiency is what has held Iowa States ranking too low.
He sure as #### can't pass it to the Mac boys.And for God sakes Jordan get the damn ball out of your hands when the shot clock is running down. Get it to Keegan or someone who can do something. I've watched damn near every Iowa game this year and there is at least 1 time per game he takes a terrible 3 with an expiring shot clock. Idk if he's trying to be the hero or if he no one else is calling for the ball or what. Figure it out lol
I agree, I think the importance of Garza to his success is under appreciated. I saw some discussion on JBo's woes this year on HR and people were trying to justify his playing time saying that having him on the court is still helpful because the other team has to guard him so it opens up the middle. That really didn't make sense, yes they have to guard him but it basically now shuts him down without Garza getting double or triple-teamed and other 3 point shooters to get him open looks. Maybe also the hips are bothering him or he is just in a slump but he shouldn't play nearly as much as he does. Offers little if he isn't hitting 3s (I know Captain Obvious). Be interesting to see if Fran cuts his time substantially, he should but it is Fran.I don't think Jordan will ever play competitive basketball after this year. He is really seeing how hard it is to get a clean look without Garza and Wieskamp demanding all the attention. When he does get a clean look, I think he is too anxious and then misses the few attempts he gets.
Yeah their NET ranking is completely inflated. Iowa should realistically be in the 50's or 60's.The fact that Iowa is currently #25 in Net despite not having a single Q1 win shows that the formula is putting way too much weight into offensive efficiency. In all 4 of their Q4 losses Iowa basically got their lunch handed to them. Ironically offensive efficiency is what has held Iowa States ranking too low.
and we all know who the better team is this year after we spanked them so badThe fact that Iowa is currently #25 in Net despite not having a single Q1 win shows that the formula is putting way too much weight into offensive efficiency.

Well we are currently rated higher than them in the NET but it's not even about that. It's the fact that their resume is no better than most teams in the 40's, 50's and 60's yet they're 25 because of how the system is calculated. Compare them to say Creighton right? I'd say they're very similar and equal teams. Creighton is 50th and has 3 Q1 wins.and we all know who the better team is this year after we spanked them so bad
