You have to keep in mind the people I went to high school with that went into teaching are coming up on retirement. My anecdote is from 30 years ago.
I’m getting a weird feeling. If JBo sits this season out, it may be the last time we see JBo in an Iowa uniform. With the guys we have now and what we have coming in, and his best bud Kreiner graduating, I think JBo enters his name in the transfer portal for his last year in college. He may end up playing one last year at a school known for one and dones like Kentucky or Duke. There is absolutely no reason for me to think this way, except I got this weird feeling that came over me. Hope I am wrong, but I learned to not dismiss these weird feelings I get.
That sounds like insanity to me.
Insanity? One time I was sitting at home watching the news. They came on and said the tragedy hit the Iowa b-ball team before going to commercial. Immediately I knew it was Chris Street that had died. I don’t know how or don’t know why, but I knew it was Chris.That sounds like insanity to me.

Another time I had a dream that I was driving westbound on I-80. A fish truck passed me on the outside lane and George Raveling was driving it. The next day the news reported Raveling taking the USC job. So excuse me if I dont listen to the that little voice in my head. Call it what you want, but now I listen. Time will tell if I’m right or not. Talk to me then.

It not widely known, or perhaps it is, the Val Barnes nearly got in that car with Chris, then at the last minute accepted a ride from James Winters.Insanity?

Talk about life altering, or perhaps even life saving decisions! I believe Val, Chris and James all lived in the same apartment complex.
I've never thought of it that way. But I've always believed that when it's your time it's your time. If that plow hadn't collided with him a semi or bus would have.The amount of extra time it takes to get one more person in a car could have been the difference. It's crazy the timing it takes for something like that to happen.
I thought that's what you were getting at when you said "life saving", but I guess you were talking about Val.I've never thought of it that way. But I've always believed that when it's your time it's your time. If that plow hadn't collided with him a semi or bus would have.
Im just glad that I'm not a family member or loved one who has probably had the exact scenario you just mentioned replay through their head about a thousand times and lead to sleepless nights. It was tough enough as a fan to lose him.
