I hope everyone will let this "lateness" go. It gets mentioned on the boards and now everyone is jumping on them about their "issue" with being late all the time. A rumor perpetuated by the internet. And so what if they were late. Fran will take care of things if it really is a problem but...

NO! We play them once a year. Win or lose they are not our whole season. IOWA and ISU are in different conferences. I don't care who they get. Fran will do the job.

Good stories are good, but good players are better. And if KF is better then I prefer him as the walkon. Might help make a better story for the HAWKS.

Dana O'Neil: New Iowa coach Fran McCaffery is looking forward to rebuilding Hawkeyes program - ESPN Hope the link works.

When Iowa was having down times in the past the Iowa State fans I know in my area were bit JERKS with more than a capital J. They were mouthy, nasty, arrogant blow hards. So it comes easy for me to cheer against them in every game they ever play. The best day is sports is when ISU loses and...

I've had seats all over the arena. Not really a terrible seat, some are just closer. Being in the building for my kids was exciting in itself. And actually seeing the team was GREAT for them too.

I got the feeling that Iowa State and some of the others sold their soul to the big guys in order to save the conference. Texas and Okla get richer and they don't gain, but also don't lose it all like they felt was happening.

Really feel from what I have read that Western Michigan didn't think the hiring process was any different that previous assistant coaches. They felt they had a commitment from Jordan, maybe a guys word isn't as much as it used to be. Wouldn't it be ironic if Michigan ended up not doing well...

I never thought he signed to be a backup. So many posters have Cully the automatic starter. I don't think any player worth anything would be content to just come play in the Big 10 and not want to be a starter. I like Cartwright's chances to be a starter at point guard.

I think Cartwright challenges for the starting position and could easily win it. And think no starting position is designated yet. Wide open competition will only help the team develop. Winning is everything right now and the players that give IOWA the best chance to win and play the most...

It might have taken Hayden a couple of years to "put the football team in the wining season category" but it didn't take that long for fans to become excited. I remember being excited about the program the first year. And then the excitement built. I'm not waiting to be excited.

Had to be a strange and difficult year for Matt with his roomie being Tucker. They were teammates on the court and good friends off the court and then whamo Tucker is off the team.

Other posters have written that CoCo can't petition until after his eligibility is used up which would be next spring, and even then it has to be co-sponsored by the team he is with. Don't know if this is true or not, just hearing it.

If Fran doesn't offer Ware then it must mean that he and his assistants feel they are okay for the next year and are concentrating on a dynamite class for 2011. If they feel that Marble and McCarty can help Cully they will concentrate on the future. If they think Ware is the answer then I...

This is not a one year effort for recruiting. They are recruiting two and three even maybe 4 years down the road. Building the foundation this year, not just recruiting for the class of 2010 in isolation. So not failing.

I hadn't read that Ware needed course work this summer but did read that Salter needed a couple of classes this summer.

Just saw this in the internet news. JUCO guard Salter commits to UH basketball team - Breaking - Starbulletin.com

Online article out of Hawaii on Salter visit Sounds like Salter is liking Hawaii. Link Iowa Western guard visiting - Hawaii Warrior Beat - The Honolulu Advertiser

Looked at the roster at U of Hawaii and they have several transfers and several JUCOs. Maybe that way players don't get as homesick if they are over there for only 2 years. But have to admit a trip to Hawaii would be nice right now, and Hawaii is a nice place anyway so if Salter goes there it...

Thought the article said that IOWA interviewed McCaffery in Atlanta on the visit by Barta and Mims. Then phone calls followed.
