Kingsbury was a hell of a talent. Wasted potential. Could stretch a defense with his uncanny range like no other in the Big Ten for his time.

But, he flamed out and never returned for his senior year. Give Mr. Davis credit there having him hit the road.

Are you telling me you wouldn't have enjoyed seeing Kingsbury's 1:00 AM instagram pics of him double fisting pitchers with a cigarette in his mouth the night before a game?

I'll give this to Mr. Davis, he never had problems with his players spouting off on twitter. He knew how to keep them in check there.

yeah, all his players did was **** in the fake plants in the walk way of the sheraton....

believe me, the player ship wasn't tight in the davis era

I would not enjoy it anymore than McCabe making a fool of himself on twitter or any other hawkeye player embarrassing themselves on the internet.

Or have players sent to drug rehab during the early part of his tenure.

No. I stand by statement.

For those saying he is not Tom Davis, take a look at Davis first four years:

14-4 30-5
12-6 24-10
10-8 23-10
4-14 12-16

Imagine how much he would have been destroyed on message boards back then, a coach whose team has gotten worse each of his four years here? Would he even have gotten a fifth year in today's climate?

No, he wouldn't have. And I don't think he deserved to. Good coach - Poor recruiter.

There must have been something building throughout the game that finally drew the T. That's the only thing I can think of.

He was probably so tired of getting yelled at by izzo that by the time Fran said something he had had enough.
