    Fran and Alfraud

    With the exception of about 5 years, Fran gave me what Iowa basketball has been the last 47 years. That is like 90% of my life. I just shrug my shoulders at the OP. The Fran era had run its course, and it is/was time to move in a different direction. WE ALL ACKNOWLEDGE THAT. I guess I don’t...

    Yep. There wasn’t a Pierre Pierce on Fran’s watch.

    Iowa 6th Seed

    Ask me at the beginning of the year, and I would have told you, Sweet 16 was probably the ceiling for this team. I don’t watch a ton of women’s basketball outside of Iowa, so take it FWIW. Teams 5-30 all seem pretty close to me. Translation: Assuming they beat Murray St. it isn’t a stretch...

    Iowa 6th Seed

    Not going to lie, that 5 game losing streak was rough. They were all close games, but you started to wonder, if it was going to be one of those years.

    If DeVries ends being the guy, he is going to bring Tucker with him. Brock would have to factor that in as part of his decision to stay or not.

    How long until Beth takes decisive action

    Fran says he coming back. He wants his 4 million. BG just can’t make Fran acquiesce the way Indiana did with Woodson.

    Beth needs to pull the trigger

    That is the blueprint Otzelberger used to get ISU going. That ugly grind-it-out style is hard to watch, but they won games. Now they are at the stage where they can be more offensive minded and in position to bring in more bucket getters. I don’t exactly know what ISU(s) NIL situation is/was...

    How long until Beth takes decisive action

    Woodson decided he was stepping away at the end of the year. Last time I checked Fran has said he is coming back. My man wants his money…I don’t blame him.

    One down!

    NIT: March 18th - April 3rd Crown: March 31st- April 6th So you give Fran his 4 million, let Courtney or Gatens be the temp HC and hope guys stick around. I hope they keep playing, but man I dunno.

    If you have 4 or 5 guys opt out is it worth playing?

    So do you turn down the invite to the Crown or maybe the NIT?

    One down!

    If they are going to make a run it has to be now. They are going to need buckets on about every possession.
