    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    I agree that Fran will be there beyond this season...but if he is not...it will because he chose to walk away.

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    I don't think we know what Iowa wants...it is a new administration. Iowa is an attractive job for more than a few reasons...even though I despise the their programs. A great hire will compete in that league...might not win a title but there is no reason a great hire couldn't get that program...

    Friday OT - You’re The Best Around (Iowa)

    One of the reasons I put Bob Feller is due to his military service DURING his career. I get that many professional athletes put their careers on hold during WWII...but it amazes me that so many did! Feller missed out on the magical 300 when it comes to wins...likely due to his military...

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    Yeah...I get that...I enjoy the lack of support the UI MBB program receives...it is so funny to me! And I hope it continues for decades! That said...Iowa needs a reset and that is a chance things could improve for them...but I hope not!

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    I have no idea why...but I never even thought of this opportunity. Would GMac leave a good situation to attempt a rebuild at Iowa? He leads THE program on his campus now...at either OSU or UI he would clearly be the second most important program on campus no matter how successful he was!

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    THIS! Iowa has the money to spend to try to rebuild the fanbase...hiring the right type of coach would be the first step in doing so. Iowa fans would kill to have a TJ clone...and it doesn't matter if he has ties to Iowa or this region. Goetz best not hire the obvious choice solely becuase the...

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    Is DeVries really the best coach out there for Iowa to get? I mean...it is a subjective question but geography is certainly playing a role in our projections in this situation, right? He might be a great hire...or he might be another successful mid-major coach that flames out when given a shot...

    Here comes the doomsday thread, sorry

    It is heading toward the inevitable "what can our two leagues do to ensure that our two leagues get every dollar possible that exists in the world of college athletics"! We all know that is what was going to happen...will it work? Different story...

    B12 Unbalanced Schedules (from the Williams & Blum conversation)

    Why not just invite all 18 and figure out byes at that point? 15 out of 18 seems like they must have some sort of strong reason for doing so?
