Man...when they’re on, they’re good. Makes one wonder how they’ll fuck it up. My guess is they'll have the typical Franian February slide. And if they don't, they'll get a 4 seed and shit the bed against the 5 in round 2 of the tourney after I foolishly pick them to go really far. Fran February comes earlier every year

Fran February comes earlier every year In 2014, the lugnuts on the bus got loosened against Michigan on January 22 and loosened further with another loss to Sparty on January 28, so this year will be the same (but with the teams flipped) and will set us up for a horrific February. That team lost 9 out 14 in conference play starting on January 22 and ultimately lost 7 of its last 8 games, culminating with a loss to Tennessee in a play-in game between powerful 11 seeds, a mighty drop after being ranked 10th in the country in the week 12 polls. I would be interested to know if a team that was ranked in the top 10 in week 12 has ever failed to make the round of 64. That has to be near record pant-shitting territory.

I ain't a FranFan, but at the end of the day in basketball unless you have a coach who gets all the calls (Bo Ryan/Izzo) and gets absolutely lucky with a class or two in a row (Bo Ryan) or likely engages in some questionable recruiting tactics you simply ain't gonna have a legit team. Fran will trip over his dick one of these years and get lucky. Look at how fucking shitty Indiana, Iowa and Illinois have gotten over the past few decades. Illinois got lucky as fuck with the Self hire and getting Deron Williams, which got them to the final, but once Williams was gone, that program went to shit. Indiana has been fucked 6 ways from Sunday for years. They had some talented teams under Crean, but shit the bed. The fucking mid majors have diluted the shit out of the talent pool because all those schools have realized that a good basketball program is great marketing and isn't a never ending monetary arms race like football. And even if Iowa were to get lucky on a good coach, the guy would bounce to a legit program after a year or two of success. As long as you don't have a total choad like Lickliter, there's probably no reason to put the basketball coach on a game of musical chairs because the '80's and '90's simply ain't coming back for a program like Iowa and Fran has put us at a point where we are probably at peak talent level possible. I don't think the admin will tolerate an ISU style program where they take damaged goods from other programs.

I think the reconstructed Big East is doing some serious damage to a lot of non-elite big conference programs. It’s big time basketball, it’s the only show on campus, it’s got a national tv contract, and the schools are decent enough academically. Shit, Villanova sent three guys to the NBA last year, and they weren’t one and done fake students.

Marquette also has been pretty decent and brought a certain level of grease to the recruiting game in Chicago. The conference added Butler and Creighton - those are the sorts of teams that are getting better. Those caliber of teams were always well behind the likes of Illinois, Iowa or Indiana, but now teams like that, and across several conferences, are just as good or better than many of the P5 programs.

My brother's old husband was a big Villy fan and he has been to all of their title games. Talk about a program that has lucked into two moderately greasy coaches who are both good x and o guys. Holy shit. It's fucking 68 outside and I'm making flashcards for the bar. Did we ever cover wrongful conception and wrongful birth at Iowa? I ain't ever heard of them, but allegedly they are torts.

We (Iowa) had a wrongful birth case here I think in the last year or two. Pretty recently. IA Supremes ruled that there is a cause of action for it, at least in the case of a severely disabled child. Big damage award, over 14 million IIRC. www.radioiowa.com/2017/06/02/supreme-court-rules-on-a-case-involving-birth-defects-and-abortion/
