As much as I liked the guy, I am not sure it was a real loss. I thought he and Bowen were of roughly the same quality. Although Iffy was always a "watch this guy, he may be good", he never seemed to take that next step. For every int, there seemed to be a slip somewhere.
As "solid" as he may have been the last couple of years, he certainly hasn't been spectacular. He would flash at times but then disappear. On top of that, he just wasn't getting it under the new regime. He really has stunk up the joint in preseason.
With all that said, he seemed like a decent guy and I wish him the best.
