Pretty sure this has been an issue longer than just break

Maybe he has the course load available to reclassify too!

but maybe this is what is needed to bring more students into carver lol. The crowd was decent for ucla but not sure it was too heavy on students. Where even is the evidence of the new student section any ways.

I’m not sure why this is news. This is the current status of things in the new era. It would happen if Kirk left too. They’ll have no issue getting a roster filled, just obviously the quality is going to suffer first year. Maybe a tough ask to get kids from Washington state area to follow their...

Any of you have podcast rec for road trip? Eye on college basketball was discussing basketball blue bloods and who is officially still valid, one of them joked they wanted to select a coach alone , and that he thinks Ben McCollum should be selected. The co host was a bit annoyed because it was...

Yeah I don’t get it. He acts like his dad has the resume of tom Izzo. Iowa could hit 30 years without a men’s sweet 16 game. Fran also had some negatives including random odd behavior that looked borderline psychotic at times. Most fans appreciate effort Connor put in as well as some of the...

Iowa has looked good against some quality teams, but non conference was a pretty sparse slate due to how loaded some power conferences are anymore. I dont know that finishing in bottom of big ten would be a melt down as not enough has been accomplished yet. Just saying, nothing is easy in yet...

Not just defense, but specifically 3pt defense has been such a weakness to fran. Did Penn do some full court press?

Turns out there is an explanation. The game was last scheduled vs St. Louis with Fran, but Ben McCollum is close friends with their head coach and preferred not playing him. So I guess there was few options to find to replace them when they did.

Iowa needs to test the refs on defensive contact on pass coverage, something tells me the refs aren’t going to be eager to throw flags that will aid Pavia.

Anyone know why they decided on this matchup for neutral site game? You think if they weren’t playing at carver they would find a matchup that had a bit more draw than Bucknell. Either way, I have one spare ticket for this if someone is in Dsm and needs a solo ticket.

With the current bowl system completely not mattering any longer, it only makes sense to increase at minimum to 16 but maybe even 18-22 teams and potentially utilize double byes for top teams. If we want to have any connection with bowl games still, just reward the invited program with the...

The good news is redshirting doesn't really hurt his professional outlook since he graduated early. So maybe if he has a good relationship with Ben he'll be happy doing what is best for the team. But good way to lose games is to play the higher regarded recruits rather than best players.

lol Michigan State isn't good now because they had a close lost to another top ten team? Purdue is still very much good despite getting handled by State, it just goes to show how good state is, at this point in the season. It was just 2024 that Purdue was in the national title game. And...

Really? With the 7 blocks and the way they were able to execute three point plays, I thought it was obvious they were good. They have four seniors in their lineup. They just made too many turnovers and probably didn’t excel enough on mismatches after screen switches.
