The Fran fade

Two observations. One, in what alternate universe does anyone believe this won't affect future recruiting?
This. It doesn't matter if Iowa is justified in their anger. Other schools will use it against them recruiting. Fran has already given them ammo.

"Don't go to Iowa. Their coach is on record saying he hates the transfer portal, and look at how they reacted when a player decided to transfer closer to home. Here at Southern Illinois, we would never treat you like that. We want you to be here for your entire college career, but if things change in the future, we understand."
 
Funny how Fran has to come to Ames to watch his little boy play ball with a well respected AAU organization such as the All-Iowa Attack, unlike what unraveled with the barnstormer organization. Then he has to see our basketball facilities just across the lot and probably says this.

I agree.

But that’s a weird relationship. I sat near Margaret at one of the Big 4 classic games a few years ago and the crazy intense conversation she and fran had after Iowa won was the oddest thing I’ve ever seen.
Congrats, jsb. You got to witness the rare McCaffery pre-mating ritual. You know for a fact Margaret laid down some pipe that night.
