The Fran fade

[JP4CY]

Yeah, I actually was editing my post when you quoted it. Basically added I thought the TJ move there was an odd one.

Since his move to Washington as well, I've just assumed he's wanted to try other opportunities.
Personally, I think he could have really rebuilt Marquette better than Shaka.

He shares an IP address with some banned members (hawk fans). He's on a short leash.

Maybe they're all logging in at the same library.

With (what is it?0 7-8 new guys on the roster, I'm not confident we're gonna have a team ready in Dec to beat a line up of: CMcFran, PMcFran, JoBo, KMurray, and the transfer.

Pls convince me otherwise.

Connor will not be 100%. I haven’t heard if jbo has woken up from ice induced nap.

You may have to help me out here but are you being sarcastic or not? Lol

They have a library?

Never know. Basketball programs can be turned around quickly but turning the culture will be quite an uphill deal in December.

Trailer more like it.

The chances of any B1G team being 8-12 and getting a bid are really, really low.

I agree although it did happen just a couple years ago.

I agree although it did happen just a couple years ago.

After the fiasco in the tournament this year I don’t think that will happen again soon.

You should know bad basketball when you see it by now. Are you talking 2 win bad? Or worse than 170 kenpom bad? Or just under .500 bad? There are so many levels of bad!

Yeah...you’re right- ISU was awful this (brilliant observation) BUT...
In Fran’s eleven years at Iowa, ISU also knows what it‘s like to win the conference tournament (multiple times), advance past the first weekend of the NCAA tournament (2x), host Gameday for BB, not get boat raced by a lower seed like Oregon in the NCAA, and have a shot at the conference championship with 3 games left in league play- things Fran has never accomplished at Iowa in eleven years.
As the girl says when she gets to the toga party in Animal House, Iowa’s motto should be “I gotta a lot of catching up to do.”

Serious question for Iowa fans. Fran has been the head coach there since 2010. If he retired at the end of next year what is your best memory of him? What is his biggest accomplishment there after 12 years?

Winning in Hilton that one time

Well TJ walked into as bad of a situation as you can imagine in Ames. I'm curious what your preseason All Iowa/Iowa State team would look like. Mine would look like this:

Hunter
Brockington
Kalscheur
Murray
Foster

The fact no Iowa fans disagreed with this is pretty telling IMO

I asked something similar before the tournament. Team wise there isn't much.

From what I've heard some pretty prominent UNI boosters are ready for a change.

No they arent

12 years and not one snapshot moment or accomplishment the fanbase can point to and hang their hat on. Thats pretty dang sad. The guy is likely to end up being the winningest coach in program history as well.

When does Weiskamp have to decide?
