[Herky] Takeaways: Auburn Ends Iowa Season

[Patrick ORourke]

 After reflecting on this season, I wonder how good was Iowa.
They were inches away from having 19 losses instead of 19 wins.  The team was not overly athletic, no dominant center ( Rebraca was a very good power forward but not a center ), no consistent 3 pt threat, etc.  They played hard, gave us some exciting games, and did well in the B10.
Concern now is what will Iowa look like next year?  I do not see any of the incoming freshman being replacements for the points / rebounds provided by the players that are leaving.
Fran will need to look to the Transfer Portal for help.

My takeaways.

  

You cannot come into a game flat and nervous.  This is a tournament, like the B1G tournament.  You must be ready to dominate, and this team was not,  IMHO.

  

Your star, Murray has to be the leader.  He needed to score at least 25.  He was covered defensively.  Therefore, we lost.  Stars step up.  Especially to start the game.

  

Iowa was better than they showed the last three games.  Or were they?
