An article in SI a couple weeks back called Seattle THE HS hoops hotbed. Very fertile recruiting. Would he leave that for Iowa?

As a Dayton alum (Class of '82 - UD! VD! Clap, Clap, Clap!!) I have to agree with Cyclones 17. I have the chance to follow them closely and Gregory had a very good team returning this year. In fact, along with Xavier, co-favorites to win the Atlantic 10 . Remarkably inconsistant. Lost to Alford...

I've been fortunate to call it home for the last 15 years. I've lived in a lot of places. Iowa City has been a dream. Great people. Much to do. Love it.

No. You said the other night, too much emphasis was put on the results of performances in the Big Dance. I agree. This is just one year. Do it over a number of years. OK.

That's a ridiculous comparison, Battman. That was a Holiday tournament. This is The Dance. No comparison.

I expressed to him that I might be able to get him an interview with Barta. He got the humor.

In all seriousness, Shane. I was astonished that he got right back. Within hours. I don't wan't to get into a whole lot, but he was very flattered. He's just a class guy. Always has been.

That's his quote, Jon. He did e-mail me back.

Jay Wright's out, Jon. Kid's in the 10th and 11th grades. Wants to see them finish in Philly. However, down the road. You never know.

Man. The Big Beast is none too impressive. Goes to show you. 13 guys can play anywhere. By the way. The Jay Wright talk can cease. He is not interested.

Cannonball. Cannonball comin'.

This is what we've come to? We need a coach with Hawkeye connections? With absolutely NO experience. C'mon, Jon. We can do better than that.

Well, Tmac. If I was offered the Sixers job, I'd pass, too. I grew up with Jay. He ain't too Philly. The suburbs never were.

The package has been delivered, Shane.

For the life of me, Shane. I can't think of any other reason Jay Wright would come here. LOL!! I'm Irish and tomorrows St. Paddy's Day. Godspeed, speedy e-mail!

Caught in a reflective mood, oifdeserthawk. I saw that movie 'Signs' again, the other night. What if I was put on this earth for just this reason? To get Jay Wright to Iowa City? Like the kid having asthma and not swallowing the poison gas. And by the way. 'Signs' was filmed in Newtown, PA...

Think fate, Bossman. What if Clarence never walked into that seedy joint in Asbury Park, one stormy night? McCartney never went to the Quarrymen show at Woolton to meet Lennon? Saul never took that road too Damascus? This could be a history-making, earth shaking event. I, at the very least, have...

iowa. It's been 30 years. My sister stays in touch and attends 'Nova games. He's pretty dug in, for the whole" Massimino family deal". Almost went to the 76er's this past summer. Yeah. It's worth a e-mail, at least. Done. Just don't hold me to it. LOL!

Look it up, Cyclones. I was Class of '78. Council Rock High School. Newtown, PA. Jay Wright Class of '79. Then Bucknell. Lost track. Then he coached Hofstra. Anything else??

Fellow Hawks. We were buds in high school. Do I even try to e-mail him as 'Nova prepares for the tourney? A Philly boy from the word 'yo'. You know...time for a new challenge. A real conference.. ya' never know!!! Anyone?
