I would feel a lot better about landing Woodbury

[okeefe4prez]

If Alford was still coaching. You guys remember when he landed all those good in state players like Horner, Brunner, etc.? I do. The guy locked the state down and we used to field competitive teams that were dangerous in March when the games really mattered.

Plus he really knew how to develop the big man.

 

[BigD]

Huh???? The one team out of eight years that finished in second place in the big ten but then got beat in the first round of the NCAA tourney by a turd team. My memory has Alford averaging in eight place over the eight years. Did I slip into a comma and miss something? Your being sarcastic right?

 

[HawkForce]

And he ran a tight ship....he didnt put up with off the field stuff like ferentz

Dude could flat out recruit, don't forget Haluska another Alford recruit.

 

[Hawkeye11en1]

How do you not recruit with that silky smooth haircut? I mean, what 17 year old kid turns down a salesman like that? None, I tell you....NONE.

 

[DuffMan]

I'd feel better if our football coach was Biels. The kind of excitement Biels generates around the football program definately rubs off on the basketball stuff.

How could you forget Pierre Pierce? One of the greatest players to ever play at Iowa.

+1. think he'd come back with the right offer?

I believe Haluska went to ISU first and transferred. A good move. Unfortunately, we did lose Alex Thompson, which stung. Alex clinched the Big Ten crown for us with a great three pointer. Alford won hardware.

No, because you jackals ran him out of town just like you're trying to do O'Keefe and Ferentz.

Plus SA was such an upbeat guy.

 

[DuffMan]

In addition his wife was a great driver.

top 50 recruit Tyler Smith comes to mind and i don't recall any 8th place finishes ido recall a season where the team went undeated at home the whole season and it was the onlytime that has happened in the history of Carver, outside of him not being prepared to run a BT program and was doing On The Job Training and finally got smart by having Daddy go to the sidelines and hiring Neal, by then it was to late, the Pierce fiasco just helped push it over the edge, with the NW St loss being the last straw

Gotta watch that punctuation. Will trip you, up, every, time, especially when you don't, expect it. By the way, did you hear about those big towers in New York City? They're not there any more. But 'Merika finally elected its first president of color ever.

Glad you're back with us.

 

[BuiltLikeWilt]

His teams always kept turn-overs to a minimum( miss that)

 

[HawkForce]

I always just liked Alford's humble demeanor...

 

[hawkdoctor]

Is this thread for real?

 

[hawktransplant]

Alford was a class act around IC.

 

[HawkForce]

Obviously it's for real....you're a real person posting on a real computer in a real house....or....ARE YOU?
