    Pomeroy Nailed It

    Either boorish behavior such as throwing chairs, grabbing players by their jerseys, berating officials in private in the tunnel after the game, dragging players by the helmet in practice, screaming like a spoiled child at officials during the game, grabbing players by the giblets, or forcing a...

    Alford to Nevada

    We will see how long Indiana is patient with Archie Miller. There is still a chance Indiana is his next landing spot although given his mentor doesn't want anything to do with Indiana, Alfraud may not either.

    Best QB in KF era

    Off that list it is Banks by a landslide. He was the heisman runner-up. Stanley will be an all-timer at Iowa stats-wise by the time he is done but unless he is regarded as one of the top 2 or 3 overall QB's or overall players in CFB he can't surpass Banks.

    Alford to Nevada

    It is clear Alford is not a great major conference coach (Iowa and UCLA). But when at Missouri State and New Mexico he has been better so this is probably a good hire for Nevada. Obviously they cleared the first hurdle which is looking past Alford's deep character flaws.

    Auburn got SCREWED

    I think I may have been the only person in the universe that night who thought that was an easy call. Clearly lunged and made contact with a player shooting the ball behind the three point line.

    Is Iowa Better Without Tyler Cook?

    We won't know for sure until next season. I have to say it will be a plus to reduce our turnovers per game by about 3 or 4. I've said before that Cook's athletic gifts will be hard to replace but not his production.

    So if Fran bails who's on shortlist?

    Nate Oates was hired by Alabama a couple weeks ago. Muss can do pretty much whatever he wants at Nevada and he would probably want similar flexibility in his next job should he move on. Not sure Iowa would afford such flexibility. Beard will have his choice of whatever job he wants, Iowa...

    So if Fran bails who's on shortlist?

    Chris Jans-- He would have alot of better offers than Iowa so it would be a long shot. Darian DeVries-- Drake has now had 4 head coaches in 3 years (Giacoletti, Rutter, Medved, DeVries). They will want to keep him around for a little while. His brother played football at UI but like Jans if...

    Fran Looking Around?

    No ex P5 head coach is going to come to Iowa. Iowa gets mid major head coaches who want to get a foot in the door as a head coach at the P5 level. All of Iowa's coaches going back 40 years have fit this mold with the exception of Tom Davis who came to Iowa from Stanford. Lute came from Long...

    Here's My Writeup on the Fran-Arkansas Story

    He would if he was pissed off about Dolphin getting to keep his broadcasting job and can no longer have a working relationship with Dolph moving forward. He would if it meant Connor got to play for one of the best college baseball programs in the country. He would if he wanted to get away from...

    Here's My Writeup on the Fran-Arkansas Story

    In a word, yes. Lots of SEC Network, donor, and Walton Family money. But isn't the buyout for if Iowa fires Fran without cause? This would be Fran choosing to leave on his own, not being fired.

    Here's My Writeup on the Fran-Arkansas Story

    If Rob's source from New Mexico has been good to Rob in the past then there's no reason to believe he isn't reliable now. Add to the flight timeline Doc tweeted and I think this story has some legs to it. Would anyone honestly expect Fran to say "Yes" if asked whether or not he or his agent...

    Fran Looking Around?

    Ole Miss hired Kermit Davis last year. Hardly a splash. Vandy fired Bryce Drew and appears to have Shaka Smart as a dream hire but Jerry Stackhouse appears to be the favorite...meh. Alabama hired Nate Oats from Buffalo. Winning pedigree but hasn't recruited in a P5 conference. Mizzou hired...

    Fran Looking Around?

    All things considered Fran has been a decent recruiter at Iowa, not good enough to be in the top of the conference but at least to keep Iowa around the middle. Arkansas is a better job with a better opportunity to recruit better players, will pay more than Iowa, and Connor can play for a better...

    Lincoln Star Journal says Fred Hoiberg has been hired

    He'll be gone in 4 years. Father Fred is just getting his taste of nostalgia before he bolts for the NBA again. So if what you say is true then it will be temporary. Nebraska basketball isn't even relevant on it's own campus.

    Isn't she Toby Keith's sister in law?

    Time for a New Arena?

    Nebraska is top 10 in attendance every year since moving to PBA and the product is no better than at the Devaney Center. Me thinks fans just wanted some suds to help them deal with the bad basketball. Creighton doesn't need to sell beer to get fans to their games. They have had a good product...

    Time for a New Arena?

    Just tear out the seating bowl inside the arena and replace it with one that is more square to the floor therefore closer. Make capacity around 13,000. Student section courtside on the side of the floor opposite the TV cameras. Blue hair seating on the other side. Concourse would be wider in...

    Hoiberg to Arkansas?

    Which begs the question why Kelvin would leave for Arkansas? As long as Tilman Fertitta is involved Houston can pay Kelvin at least as much as Arkansas perhaps more. He's 62 and has been all over the place. Houston is a great place to set roots for a while for the reasons you mentioned. Side...
