This team loses some key pieces on both sides of the ball. But, the outlook for this team is good with young players like Nathan Stanley waiting in the wings and 5 star A.J. Epenesa coming in, who could be a huge difference maker.

Fran McCaffery seems to be willing to adjust to the players he has. The team has continued to get better since he was hired when the program had hit rock bottom. Kirk Ferentz does not change anything, he just moves assistants around. The offense has been in a rut for too many years.
ReplyThey are building teams that have talent inside and out. I actually like the 2016-2017 more than any of the prior Fran Mc teams. This group is very athletic and plays like it belongs, even though they are presently starting 4 freshmen. They don't rattle or panic and keep coming after you.
ReplyMuch better head coach-better recruiter- better game day coach- will not settle for slightly above average.
ReplyFreshman class without precedent. Fun team excites recruits.
ReplyAmazing Freshmen/ Sophmore Talent.
ReplyI think it's pretty obvious but with 11 underclassmen on the roster the future looks bright. As long as Greg Davis is in town, I have no hope for the future of the football team.
ReplyFootball success is mostly schedule and loghtening in a bottle situations. Bball steady rise in talent.
ReplyIts simple math really. Fran just has to recruit a couple stars, 3 good players, and the rest role players. Ferentz has to recruit 50+ players on both sides of the ball and develop them. Few football players come into the college game ready to immediately contribute, the same is not true for bb
Replyyoung talent, a coach who's still got something to prove
Replyvery strong young team. Jordan Bohannon is the real deal at point guard
ReplyTalent level
ReplyThis one shouldnt even be close. Until the Iowa football program changes its offense up we are doomed. The defense is going to regress and wont be able to hold us in close games anymore
ReplyMuch younger team with a coach who has proven he and his staff can develop talent. I think the young talent on the basketball team exceeds that of the football team as well. If Cook/Bohannon/Pemsl progress as expected, could be a deep March threat in the next few years. No such aspirations with FB.
