27.5% shooting...

Yet another 2nd half meltdown...

I'm not mad

I missed the start of the second half. What was the cause of Fran's meltdown a few minutes in?
 
any Fran-tastic facial expressions from the game yesterday?
 
It looked like he was mad at the crowd, but there were so few hawk fans there he wasn't getting much support.

His guys were getting routed once again coming out of Fran's fiery halftime speech, like they do in every game, and Fran was mad and had to take it out on someone.

Iowa is getting just manhandled in every game in the first 5 mins after the half. Really has to make one question the coaching ability or lack thereof.... OR.... whether or not these kids want to put forth the effort for him anymore?

A Fran Cam would solve this problem. Just set one camera on the opposite sideline from Iowa's bench and keep it trained on McCaffrey at all times so we never miss an expression or Frantrum.

Perused the mbb board over on HawkeyeReport.com

Simply hilarious. Some threads with realistic assessments of Hawk mbb. A couple of threads trashing Fred landing another transfer away from Marquette (beat out Alfraud yesterday)

Amazing some have finally realized ISU is a better mbb program. After 5 years of Fran. Some real brainiacs over there

PA Announcer said it was a flagrant foul. UNI was wanting flagrant. Fran was yelling at the UNI bench.

How White didn't get a flagrant at the end for slapping UNI player in the face is beyond me.

Not every game, just every game that matters against every opponent with a pulse.
Give Fran a halftime to make adjustments against SUNY-Buffalo, and you'll see magic, my friend.
 
This season will really hurt Fran's opportunity to take a higher profile job like DePaul or South Dakota State. He might be stuck in Iowa City for a while.
