Of course I have a pager. Not to toot my own whistle, but I am a pretty big wheel in the bird feeder industry, so it helps when I can be reached at any time. By virtue of my position, I have many friends and business contacts who are connected to the Iowa program. In fact, for the UNI game, I was invited to sit in Provost P. Barry Butler's private box at Kinnick Stadium buy a prominent donor/bird lover. So I think that speaks for itself that my information is reputable.
Look, I got pretty wound up last night too. Before the game, my wife mixed me up a couple of Arnold Palmer's with caffeinated tea, so I my behavior was less than civilized, and I got steamed and said "heckf!re" a few times, but after sleeping on it, I have a little perspective on what happened.
On a coaching note, since this is a coaching thread, I wonder how difficult it was for Kurt and Brain to coach against Bill O'Brian, a man who was a friend and mentor to Brain while he was in New England. I received a fax this morning from a person close to the coaching staff who were very upset that O'Brien tried to run up the score on the Ferentz', which they viewed as O'Brien taking advantage of their friendship. The three went out for dinner after the game, and my sources told me that the elder Ferentz was very quiet the whole meal, just sitting silently chewing, and staring into space.
I am sure O'Brien learned his lesson when he makes Kurt mad! I can't wait to play those cowardly lions next year!

Everbody knows technology is cyclical.
Soon there will be a pager back on everybody's belt, just like it should be.

I think I actually owned this pager 15 years ago.

Just wait until our 40th nationally ranked recruiting class gets here. We'll show 'em!

Some people who can afford them find diamonds in a glass case. Other people who are hard workers and smart find diamonds in hard stone. Kurt is the latter. The recruiting class is always ranked #40, but at the end of the year, the ranking that counts in in the top 10! This is a young team with a new staff, but you can see in his face how hard Kurt is working to whip these guys into shape. This team has, unarguably, gotten better each week, and will continue to do so. I can't wait to see the spanking we give those Wildcats next week. I am expecting big things, and a road win in the Big 10 is something to celebrate!
GO HAWKS!
