In reply to Alford Bailey. You clearly didn't watch the Iowa/Michigan game then. He was electric, and clearly the best player on the court in that particular game. He wasn't nearly as spectacular when he came to Assembly.

In reply to Outoftheloop. Also likely that 3 of the 4 "M" teams will have something to say about who ends up in positions 2 through 7...

In reply to SCHoosier. Really? I didn't think he lived up to expectations. He was better last season I guess. Liked watching his dad play.

It should be a “Battle Royal” between the 3 I’s: Indiana, IL and IA to get a top 2-3-4-5 finish in the B1G! They each can not have a great year. Let the blood letting begin!

Marble will be a good pro and was a great college scorer. However..seems to me that the rest of the players often stood around while Marble was trying to do his thing. Could have a better TEAM and more balanced scoring this year….defense will also be a key for the Hawks. It killed them a couple of games last season.

Iowa seemed to be less than the sum of it’s parts last season- let’s hope that continues.

In reply to NateMH. I think if they redid the rankings at the end of the season that Troy would be pretty high up there.

The Hawkeyes were fun to watch most of the time with Dr. Tom Davis in charge. Been pretty much crap since then.

Nice article Alex, well done. Only thing I would respectfully disagree with is IMO Troy Williams is the most underrated player in the conference. Unless I overlooked his name, I didn’t see it on the top 25 list ITH recently released. If Troy isn’t one of the best 25 players in the conference I’ll be very surprised.I look for him to be more of a top 10 caliber guy this season for us
