[Herky] Takeaways: Auburn Ends Iowa Season

[SRINIVAS REDDY Chirra]

Just saw a chyron that Jack Nunge helped Xavier to the next round.
Good for him.  Some Iowa connection is in the next round of March Madness 🙂
Wish he was playing at Iowa 🙁

True
That has pretty much been how Fran's teams have performed, exciting victories against top teams followed by losses to nobodies.
Not sure of Kris has proven himself to be NBA material just yet considering the number of games he had gone missing from action.  He just does not appear to have the game enough to impose his will.
Rebraca was the only consistent player on the team and like you said was playing at a position that he just did not have the physique for.
Tony Perkins' and Payton Sandfort's were world beaters one day and liabilities the next.  Their consistency or the lack of is what hurt the team the most.  If the threes do not fall we were in trouble.
Whatever happened to Josh Oglesby?

Hope we get some real performers from the portal for next year.
Fingers crossed.

Go Lady Hawks

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?
