You're stretching a bit.
Women's bball- Bluder was the coach when he was hired. He gets zero credit for that
Men's bball- break even. He destroyed the program with his first hire and looks like he found a guy to bring it back. I like Fran, but objectively...we've got 1 NCAA win in 5 years. Not there yet.
Wrestling- made a good coaching change,(guided by Gable) but IOWA wrestling was never in "bad" shape, like basketball (or like football is now) they finished 2nd, 7th and 4th Nationally the last 3 years before Brands' hire. We have NCTitle expectations at IOWA, yes. But wrestling wasn't exactly in the dumper.
Baseball, Great hire
The rest...who cares. Football is more important in the big picture than all below wrestling put together.
I'll grant you that he hasn't been a complete failure. But where it counts most, on the biggest stage (football and PR) he's fallen on his face, more than once. The game day experience at Kinnick has been neutered by the trifecta of Barta/Ferentz/Mason. IOWA football is what 95% of the country identifies as IOWA athletics and it's the cash cow. Screwing that part up, overshadows almost everything else. When outsiders are laughing at you and making fun of your program...you're failing.
