I well remember sitting at home listening to WHO radio when I was 15 years old listening to Hawkeye basketball games before Hayden Fry became the football coach. Lute had us rocking in the Field House most nights with a victory. The football program was insignificant as many fans went to watch the band play at halftime. Tickets were fairly cheap to watch the football games and were a hot item for the basketball games. if the football team won it was just a bonus that made the tailgating more enjoyable. If the basketball team won it was just expected even when the really good teams came to town. Could we be heading down a similar road again? As far as the football program is concerned I certainly hope not but as far as the basketball program is concerned I certainly hope so.
