If we hire a mid major...it better be Jake from UNI (and I'm really not that in favor of this.)...IF we can't get a established head coach to come here from another university...then it better be Forbes...at least he would be exciting! A fresh start...If any of those guys are hired...I'm done with Iowa bball. I pray this rumor is totally false.
Not a chance that what is true?Guys careful what you believe. Not a chance this is true.
Are you going to blindly support this team then? Cause Barta is going to **** up another hire rather quickly here. I have no confidence in his ability to evaluate coaches/sell them.[/QUOTE]
Just wondering what your opinion is based on, exactly?
One of the mods at Cyclone Fanatic is saying that Jon has said Barta has 4 interviews this week.
Anyone else see anything like that posted anywhere on this site?
I would, like I've said before Hewitt is a good recruiter but is possibly the worst major conference coach out there. He wastes so much talent year in and year out.
No...maybe he mentioned that rumor this morning on the show though? I didn't get to listen so I have no idea.
Haven't listened to the podcast yet, so I can't say either way. The mod "Mr. Janny" specifically mentioned this site, and said that Jon said it this week (translation: yesterday or today). I called him on it, lets see what happens.
I have a bad feeling that Barta is going to botch this hire. If this is truly the best that he can come up with, then Iowa Basketball is in deeper trouble than I originally believed.
I'll keep my fingers crossed that there's at least 3 more coming after the next round of NCAA action depending on who moves on & who doesn't.Tom Kakert is the one that said that- 2 yesterday and 2 today.
When one chooses to make those comments notice the reference to I. Not GHOSTOFBTT so just ignore it man. There aren't any 16 year old girls looking your way anyway.Can we stop with this overly dramatic "If that happens, I am done with Iowa basketball"? There are 16 year old girls who desperately need attention rolling their eyes at that line.
