This is the lesson that Alfraud never bothered to learn. He reacts completely opposite to this saying. That makes him insufferable to almost everyone.

Very true but I also can't recall Fran ever taking the blame when things have gone wrong. Maybe he has, I just don't remember any times.
Things went wrong?

Many times. In many games. You didn't think Fran was undefeated, did you? Undefeated in his contract negotiations...maybe. But against the Gutless Wonder, who isn't?

Good question.
Manchester--no.
SW Mo State--no.
Iowa--not officially, but he saw the writing and bolted.
NM St--no.
UCLA--yes.
I lived approximately 15 miles from his home town of New Castle when he was a high school senior and his first two years at Indiana. The Chrysler arena held 9300 fans, astounding considering the town is only 17.3K in population. He owned the town, the state, the game and pretty much anything he wanted.
He truly wanted to use Iowa as a stepping stone to go back to Indiana. I don't think he even got an interview.
