Next Year

Re: Next Year

I hope Lohaus can become more consistent with his level of play that he showed toward the end of this season, most notably at Wichita State. While his overall play was better at the end of the season, he was still kind of streaky game to game. He has shown he can shoot 3s, jump shots and even cut to the basket, just needs to work on bringing those skills to every game.

I always wonder how much of that "streakiness" comes from playing behind good senior players. Lohaus seemed to be similar to Frankamp in the fact that they both had great flashes of play, but then would disappear. I always though it was because Frankamp was deferring to Fred and Ron and I wonder if it is the same with Lohaus. Will be interesting to see how they both do when more of the load is expected of them.

Re: Next Year

More 1-2-2 press with 2-3 half court zone next season. Seth Greenberg did a nice job today breaking down the Syracuse 2-3 zone. The post guards the rim, wings guard the 3 point line and help the post in the lane, and the point guard stops the ball out front. The 1-2-2 press would further delay opponents from attacking the 2-3 zone with high post touches.

Re: Next Year

ROFL if you think Jake is going zone and full court press.

Re: Next Year

We have the depth to press next season...

Re: Next Year

We're likely adding one rotation player without a transfer, and the depth is more in the frontcourt....

Re: Next Year

I'm assuming McCloud and Brown are ready... That would be a solid 8 man rotation with 4 extras...

Re: Next Year

Does anyone ever listen to coach Jake on his show and press conferences? we do have some nice players that will impact this team next season that red shirted. What makes some think McCloud is ready to play? I hope he is ready to contribute. He will be a great player but needs weight and muscle and he may be 6 feet now I am not sure. The red shirters have been putting on weight and muscle on all year and will continue this summer and the rest of their time at UNI. Jake has talked very highly of Haldeman all season and says we have a special one. Along with the other redshirters that have progressed in a positive way. They guarded and played against the MVC champs and a NCAA tournament team all year. That's pretty good quality playing time and great preparation for the season. I thnk some of these guys will surprise a lot of people. Maybe it is a color thing that their our doubters out there but that is why we have Panther Nation to make comments. How lucky these boys are to be part of this team and learn from the seniors and the other players what it takes to be a true player on and off the court. Go panthers!

Coach Jake just recently compared him to Deon Mitchell coming in. Baring injury, I can't imagine him not getting good mins, probably starting.

Re: Next Year

Outside of a transfer, I expect:
PG: McCloud (20+)/Haldeman(15+)
SG: Lohaus (25+)/Haldeman (15+)
WG: Morgan (30)/Brown (15ish)
PF: Carlson (25)/McDonnell (15ish)
C: Koch (20-25)/Not sure who gets more between Friedman and Dahl)

This still leaves minutes for Conrey/Knar to get decent, spot minutes consistently.

Lots of unknowns in that second group, in the sense that none of them have yet to play a college minute. On the flip side, great way way for Jake to figure exactly what he has, and coach up those that need it (they all will in certain ways).

It would be nice if Dahl was far enough along that he could contribute meaningful minutes. That said, there's definitely a spot for Ted to contribute. He's already proven he can play really solid D at this level, and be an inside presence and disruptor. We don't beat NC without him, because he did a great job against Kennedy Meeks. Meeks totally schooled Koch. Watch Meeks this weekend, he's a bada$$.

I agree with this except for I think Jeremy will get at least 35 minutes. I also think that Lohaus and Carlson will get at least 30 minutes each. Will be very interesting to see how the minutes pan out for everyone. I'm really hoping we get the albrecht kid (I think he'd fit right in at UNI) to be our point guard to let mccloud put some weight on.

Would love to get the New Mexico coaches kid. 2 years left and he is familiar with Iowa.

Re: Next Year

No question Morgan has to take the lead. The other 8 need to be the supporting cast. Quite a lot to think about in the off season as would the other 350 DI programs...
