Or because he has some interest in it someday. Someday for something very special came really quick though and the special clearly got less special. My guess is 3 things added to that more than anything Pollard did:
1. BDJ situation. Negotiating a truce with neighbors and cops over loud music and temper tantrums not so Fun.
2. Fan Melt Downs Over Outsized Expectations. No explanation needed.
3. Failure to land the big fish recruiting after kissing teenager's ***** for years.

How's he going to feel kissing Rose's *** the coming years? And rose is a shell of his formal self.
 
Can I post my own wild, made up, completely false speculation now?

His dream was to coach any/all of his sons at Iowa State but he's seen that none of them will be high major recruits so it's time to head to the NBA.

If it were any of the three, I would tell him to suck it up and put his big boy pants on. All three of those are part of the job at either level, in one way or another.

That said, I doubt it's any of them, and I never have to back up my big typing.

Here is mine. Fred is the illegitimate father of Clayton Custer and he wants to see him play in person. Additionally, DePaul has intrests in Jack so he can now watch both of his sons play.

It could be all three, though, and while every job has it's annoyances, sometimes they can add up.

I agree. should have added that qualifier, I don't think anything "made him want to go" but some things may have dulled the shine of ISU a bit. Enough to be a major factor? Probably not. Since people were speculating on Pollard making ISU a less desirable place I was more saying 3 other things likely did more to dull that sparkle than Pollard. But who knows, could be a total Jerk to work for as far as I know and if so that stinks. He is a disciple of Barry Alvarez after all who has driven off good coaches and Bo Ryan reportedly barely speaks to him.

I'd give you that. None of those would have convinced any man that they wanted to stay. Maybe enough to go, maybe not, but they all leave a bad taste.
