why?

 

[BSpringsteen]

Besides being a former player and a color analyst, exactly how is Bobby Hansen any more qualified than the Athletic Director at hiring a coach?

 

[clicheusername3]

the 1991 Chicago Bulls???

 

[loyalhawk]

just saying Hansen being an ex-player and being a bigger Hawk fan then us, he would be able to tell Barta what to look for in a coach.

Boy, I'll bet that was a regular Algonquin round table.

They should have included Carfino, Gannon, Lohaus, Horton, etc on the selection committee.

Yea they were big time players.

 

[HAWKEYESTATE4ever]

We should have just hired Bobby to coach the team. BJ as his top assistant!

 

[ScottinWDM]

I think Carfino lives in Austraila these days.

This is what Bobby had to say about the hire:

"Iowa has hired a class act. Respected by his coaching peers, Coach McCaffery is a proven winner who rebuilt the Sienna Saints program in quick fashion by being a relentless recruiter who instilled an up tempo style that fans loved and players embraced. During the search process he expressed his vision for the future of the Hawkeye program while understanding the proud tradition of University of Iowa Basketball." Bobby Hansen
