With so many positives, did anyone else like the rotation being 9 only guys? Not looking forward to Pemsel or Nunge taking Garza minutes and more hockey like substitution patterns. Shorter bench is good for cohesion on the floor. JoBo will obviously play more when not in foul trouble, but maybe...

I wonder how much better the players feel on the floor when they are able to break a sweat before getting taken out of game.... The hockey like substitutions had been routine for Coach Fran, but not so much the last few games. Team playing better not a surprise to me. Let’s hope a shorter bench...

Injuries, Purdue's much improved, the crowd..... what will Captian Kirk say today if/when Iowa has yet another disappointing performance against perennial bottom dweller Boilermaker team? Blah, blah, blah.... oh what I would give for an old fashioned beat down of this crappy team.

Going into last possession with game tied MG is 0-7 from the floor including (he passed up numerous open looks) and he is asked to take the last shot? I understand he tries hard and is a great student, but he has zero confidence in his shot and has proven time and again to be a poor choice in...

Press ( full and 3/4 court) all damn game. Iowa has 10 decent guys - run the opponent all game long. Pressure the ball and hope to get easy baskets. Try to never set up a half court offense (because they such at it). Late in the 2nd half, Iowa actually created a couple turnovers doing this to...

Just lost Ed Morrow from mighty Simeon to the frickin' Cornhukers. That's two (Glynn Watson) studs from Chicago area gone. http://highschoolcubenews.com/2014/09/22/simeons-edward-morrow-picks-nebraska/ Don't think Iowa is successfully recruiting better players on the back of improving record.

Any QB playing vs. Purdue, IU, IL, MN and Northwestern should look like a world beater. the same should have been true when playing against NIU, Ball State and ISU. Still can't believe how easy this schedule is. Just need to win games where favored (most or all of them going forward) for a...

Anyone see how this talented former Hawk looked last night with SF? 9 carries is a good look, 24 yes. Not too special

Fran has opened pipeline to Chicago area! hope many more studs to come! De La Salle's Brandon Hutton commits to Iowa | Chicago-Area High School News and Scores | High School Cube News 6'5" stud athlete, he's a slashing 3 that will attack the rim (well above it) and should complement our jump...

Robert Smith, head coach of Simeon ( 4 straight IL state titles (Jabari Parker/D. Rose, etc. grads) tweeted that Iowa coach was in to see Ed Morrow, stud 6'7" Jr. yesterday. I've always dreamed that one day Iowa would get access to the Chicago Public League players. Those of you that want...

vs. B10: first half: Iowa 62 - opponent 27 & only trailed once, (7-6 vs. WI.) 2nd half: Iowa 16 - opponent 78 It's hard to imagine how this can happen with such consistency! How can the team/coaching be good enough to be ahead or right there every game and get beaten EVERY 2nd half? Save...

Iowa's O-Line has looked great for much of this season, but the backs lack the speed and or vision to make huge gains. Many times, the lone is blowing the D-line back and our guys run for 5 yards and falling forward for 7 yard gains. Not bad, but some should go for BIG yards. If Iowa had a...

I can't remember the last time Iowa was 11-2 and it feels good to say that record. Unfortunately, only two of those wins were against pretty good teams. I hope the next step for the program will be to schedule some games against strong non-con.teams as I watch Ohio State playing Kansas after...
