Jamie must have wanted to lock up TJ quick. Guessing he was a wanted man.
whoaWhat can we believe then that Pollard says? Seems he has been lying a lot. Saying he will have a quality coaching search when the deal with Otz was done a month ago. We all know how you feel about liars.
Jamie Pollard expects coaching search to move 'pretty quickly'
"I anticipate the search will go pretty quickly," Pollard said.247sports.com
He continued.
"But I want to assure you, we will not sacrifice the quality of the search just to expedite the search," Pollard said. "Now we all have to understand, we've got limited resources.
Got cuts last year but Campbell made up a big chunk of the 10% pay cuts out of his own salary so the assistants didn’t get much of a cut.
It is almost as bad as cutting programs in an athletic department while giving the football program raises. Imagine how bad the look would be if Jaime had cancelled women's programs in violation of Title 9 regulations and then got sued for it. That would be a terrible look. It would almost give the appearance that Jaime favors men over women. Yikes.

Chad defending Bohannon hoping to get another invite to his family Thanksgiving dinner
Personally, I am pissed that Iowa cut the programs it cut. Having said that most of the programs that got got were Mens teams (Mens Swimming and Diving, Women's Swimming and Diving, Men's Tennis, and Men's Gymnastics). So "women's programs" did not get cut, a single women's program got cut and, as you pointed out, because of Title 9 they may be reinstated. The problem alleged in the lawsuit (which merely requires a $195 filing fee) was that by cutting the Women's Swimming Program, the number of male athletes outnumbered the number of women's athletes (conceptually that doesn't make sense to me, because you would think that, at least, the two swimming teams would cancel each other out, but I will admit that I do not have the numbers to question the Women's Swimming Program's case. Even still, I hope they win).
Moreover, ISU has 16 varsity sports. Iowa will have 21 after this year (assuming the Women's Swimming and Diving team wins their case). So it really is not apples and oranges. Jaime does not have to worry about having to cut the Men's Swimming team, Men's Tennis team, and Men's Gymnastics, because those programs do not exist in the first place. That is not a dig at ISU. The point is just that their athletic department is much smaller (and still is) and therefore they do not have the same overhead.
JFC.
You really don't know the facts. For example the bond the athletes had to put up in the event they lost the case. STFU moron.
I mean you claimed that he cut "womens programs" and then took a comment I made, in passing, about the filing fee to assert "You really dont know the facts". Chill out buddy okay? Everything is going to be fine.
Having said that, I did not know about the bond. It is not the area I practice. Wasn't really the main point tho was it?
Minimizing the veracity of their claim to to a de minimis filing filing fee is garbage. Carry on.
So a couple things on this. First, I do not believe I minimized anything. I was merely pointing out that anyone can file a lawsuit. However, you are right that they did post a bond. So you can disregard that aside. Secondly, I stated that I hope they won.
Moreover, you should learn to address people in a more civilized manner lest others think you let your emotions control yourself. Sweetie, it is a message board. Clam down.
I would say I am the biggest Iowa State fan in all of the land. You can trace my lineage back to Adonijah Welch (or as we refer to him in our family "Papa Adonijah"). My father and his father before him attended the all Cyclone athletic events since the beginning of the program. Ole S.W. Beyer lived next door to my grand papi and the two used to crack wise and tell stories of Iowa State athletics until their final days. In Hilton Coliseum you can see my family's name hanging from the rafters as we have been honored as the greatest Iowa State fans of all time. So ya bro... I'm an Iowa State fan.
