And neither was the ISU extension of Rhoads which was widely celebrated by ISU fans.
I mean at that time there were a lot of ISU fans that thought Rhoads was a better coach than KF.
Do you hate the Campbell extension?

On this site every dogged him for be a project all the time while he was playing. Now in this conversation he was a top 50 recruit that somehow the mightly ISU missed out on to lowly Iowa........
I like to come to this site, but the narrative around here is we are better than Iowa, and no Iowa fan can be right about anything because they like Iowa. Pretty low class. I would be mad about it, but I am hopeful that Iowa will be better next year. ISU fans think that can not happen because of a down year. Just like McD could not coach at another school in a big conference at a high level.....
Fran had a bad year last year. NO hawk fan would say otherwise. But I think the roster is more well rounded now. Sure we could use more slashers at the guard spot, but compared to last season next year looks better with the personnel.
5 guards compared to 3
3 SF compared to 2
and a bunch of 4/5 guys
I like the direction we are taking and look forward to seeing improvement.
Nope
ISU 2017-2018 13-18 overall 4-14 in conference 0-10 in away games
Iowa 2017-2018 14-19 overall 4-14 in conference 1-10 in away games
Pretty comparable finishes IMO
No clue.
Also Thinker is a dumb azz. Good god.
He plays that “I don’t know, or I don’t remember” card too much for someone that posts on boards more than all of us.He hasn't, but you knew that already.
For some reason I think it's a bit.

No, I don’t. KF owns him on the recruiting trail and on the field.
If only we could be so lucky to have CMC become the HC at Wisconsin.
I'm confident. Do you think Pollard was smart to extend CMC?
Im happy with it, I will let you evaluate the job JP is doing.
Seriously? You want CMC at ISU long term?

What ISU does besides 1 game per season does not concern me.
KF owns CMC on the recruiting trail and on the field.
How does that make me dumb? I am trusting the process with Fran at the helm.
Dang it, so close again!
Even if you throw aside that ToE schedule was much easier than ISU's, the expectations for the season were completely different.
This was the Hoks year to return to the Dance, probably do some 2nd round damage.
ISU ended up right where everyone expected. Bottom of the conference and watching the tourney from the Soukup Center.
Ergo, ISU's worst year = Hoks best year.
That has to hurt. Think of this place as therapy to get you through the hurt.
Why?
Iowa can improve next year is my tag line
Iowa wont if Cook leaves
ISU was as bad as Iowa last year
ISU will be a good team next year that could make the tourney
Iowa supports its sports like ISU does for football, even when we are bad we want to believe we can be good.
Fran has been bad in some areas of coaching but has done good in others
Woody was a project big man that improved the team and his game in 4 years. Helped Iowa get out of the abyss.

That makes you dumb
