I'm the first to admit I've been ready to part with Fran a couple years ago. Mainly because of his embarrassing behavior many times but his in game coaching left lots to be desired some times too. I can definitely give him props this year, good coaching job and his sideline demeanor has been...

I would like to see a more free flowing game myself. I love basketball, but it can get hard to watch when it turns in to a football game. I like football for what it is and love to see athletes on the basketball court do their thing too.

They have any good players we can poach from their recruiting class?

Sure helps when you have a guy putting up 25 pts consistently. Garza was good we all knew that, but right now he has single handedly taken the team to another level with his consistency and All American Play.

Yep Carton is the one that hurts, not Foster. Especially if our core all comes back next year... Carton on that team could make it one of the best ever at Iowa.

I had planned to go to the last two friday night games and the weather just made it too difficult. I live 2.5 hours away and just didn't want to battle that and turn it in to a 3.5 hour white knuckle ride. Sucks for the Team.

100% agree. I was expecting another Ogelsby as we've all heard Fran hype guys before so I had my expectations low. What is great is he has a knack for not only hitting shots but also key shots at big moments and also consistency. I would agree he is an upgrade over Moss. He will end up being...

Hoping the Injuries stay away this year! Looking for another solid season of Hellerball!

Depending on the Staff's confidence in Petras, this seems like it could be a great year to bring in a proven and experienced Grad Transfer QB to help lead an offense with most of its weapons back no?

If you justify the behavior, like following referees through tunnels etc then we'll just agree to disagree. Most of the times we have lost is because of horrible defense, lack of using timeouts, lack of a point guard etc.... not the referees. VA just won a national title with a Coach that...

Who woulda thunk.... Iowa vs PSU early in the season would be a huge game in the BIG LOL. I will say, I've been critical of Fran's antics and have worn tired of them and ready to just be done with him. Been embarrassed honestly and feel like the team melts down in the clutch like he does. Is it...

I think when most on here mention an Elite Program Changing recruit we all assume they mean a PG ha ha. :)

Yep would agree with all of that! Bottom line is some guys just didn't pan out like we thought after the WS. Russell a huge one, Schwarb had a couple really down years, Bryant has been injured a lot. And of course we haven't developed any pitching and maybe the biggest struggle has been...

Man its been a slow offseason for the Cubs so far. Getting concerned we are going to try and stick the same team out there with an iffy rotation and bullpen.

Fun team to watch, great Chemistry it appears and some hard working kids on both ends of the floor. I am going my best to not think about Carton being on this team with Garza, Weiskamp and CJ on the floor at once.

Health is gonna be the key. Garza plays so physical hoping his body holds up all year. I was skeptical on CJ before the year started as I've heard the Fran hyperbole before with similar players, but the kid can play and has some of that JBo swagger. Really liking Tousaint, where have guys...

Nice get, but won't matter much until we get that top tier PG recruit to go with.

Thanks guys appreciate it.

Taking a buddy's son to his first game at Kinnick. He wants to see the team arrive, anyone know what time they'll get there for the 3pm kick? Thanks!

Was thinking about this same thing. Who would even want it? I feel like the program is at the point where we would have to make a high risk high reward type of hire. Kind of like ISU did with Fred, where we hire maybe a younger coach or someone without Head Coaching experience but could make...
