I was stopped short of the Sweet 16 today as well.
I hope other Big10 schools make Wilson Ball signs next year.
"Listen, I'm far above complaining about the ball. My players didn't like it, and it didn't produce good results. The other team used it. I don't think it's a good ball."
I want Fran to stay at Iowa for a thousand forevers.
Fran will be their for life, unless Kirk fires him.
As you can see, my image game is strong. I may do a Fran/Wilson/Castaway image.
No wonder you have players and a coach feel entitled and thinking they're always a victim when you have a media pumping them up as being better than they actually are like that.
This is exactly how Fran operates.... and it's total BS.... and a thing losers do.
"I don't want to say the ball cost us the game, but the ball cost us the game".... is basically what he said.
Did the same thing with the officiating..... by basically saying.... "I don't want to say the refs cost us the game, but they allowed the game to be too physical for us, and we didn't get to the FT line enough, so they did cost us the game".
Keith Murphy on the Channel 13 news talked about Iowa trying to make it back to the Sweet 16 as if they were there recently. Iowa hasn't been to the Sweet 16 this century.
Chad and Fran’s relationship is like an emotionally abusive marriage where the wife won’t leave. Fran constantly treats him like garbage in public but Chad just keeps on talking him up to any one who will listen.
I'm not saying it was the ball, but... I'm not saying it wasn't the ball either.
Here is a hint, Chad.
When you say something like "McCaffery does not want to use the Wilson ball as an excuse and won't after Iowa went 6-of-29 from 3" and then quote McCaffery saying the players didn't like the Wilson ball, that actually means McCaffery is using the Wilson ball as an excuse
I heard theres a wilson ball embargo and theyre impossible to get in iowa.
