    Thanks for sharing that article. Do I sense a Chris Street type of player coming aboard?

    Jeff Horner to BVU

    I am surprised how much more mild Utah compared to the Midwest. I usually think of snow and cold being associated with the mountains. I bought a nice snow blower five years ago and I think I used it maybe six times. I am south of Salt Lake City about 60 miles. Over all it’s pretty dry here.

    I am some what surprised. Sure the coach that recruited you was let go, but didn’t these kids make friends and other connection that would at least influence them to stick around? The apartments you rent, favorite restaurants to eat at, classes that you have registered to attend. I mean I get...

    People in general are very active outdoors here in Utah. Most people come from all over the world to ski in the winter time. During the summer time we went up to one of the local ski slopes and they let you ride the ski lifts up to the top to get spectacular views of the mountains. There is a...

    Colorada is a very beautiful state, much more so than Utah. I lived in Colorado for two years. Denver can be a little rough with crime but out away from Denver there are some spectacular areas. The Estes Park area is a beautiful scenic area. Colorado Springs is a nice area also. Pike's Peak is...

    Leave it to Illinois to bring European pro-ballers to college basketball

    I heard that there were over 2000 players that entered the portal recently before it closed. As much as I would like to see the second group you mentioned I can't help that the only way that is going to happen is if fans just stop attending the games (especially basketball) and then the...

    That is awesome, thanks for sharing those thoughts. In 1990 I moved from Iowa out to the South Salt Lake area around 4500 South on the East side of the interstate. Met my wife there and we were married shortly after. I remember driving over into the area a little further south where the old...

    Well if Fran want's him then he likely isn't making playing defense a top priority. In that case I wish him luck at Penn a nothing team. Seriously???? Penn over any BIg Ten team......... think about it. No shit with this younger generation. A bunch of spoiled brats. (I could have used another...

    Penn swimming in hot water???

    NCAA considering significant rule changes in 2025-2025

    Ben missed out on a player

    Ben is going to have to find success right out of the gate. If we struggle too much then people are going to start thinking Lickliter 2.0 and patience will go out the door. I don’t expect Lickliter 2.0 as Ben has gained the respect of his peers. That says a lot about his character and knowledge...

    Nice interview with Ben

    Over the years Iowa has had different coaches with different personalities. You can tell Ben is not an Indiana guy. He seems like the kind of guy you would run into at a convenience store or grocery store and just strike up a conversation with. Nice interview...

    BJ Armstrong to Kings

    Yep, that was very disappointing, but understandable from Ulis's position.

    BJ Armstrong to Kings

    BJ is King. One of the best all-around point guards to ever wear an Iowa uniform. If Fran could have recruited point guards like BJ he would still be coaching at Iowa and have several sweet-16's under his belt.
