Keno, Pastner, Barbee

[ibahawkeye]

I'm OK with Keano. Although there are concerns I think he would be a good fit, relate well to players and bring some excitement back into the program. He would not cost the pile of money that Pearl, Dixon and possibly Pastner would.

Sorry... you must be "special"

I don't want to be a grammar nazi but when you post your support for "Keano" and you can't even spell his name correctly.... I get worried.

As far as the post you responded to I was referring to the fact that you spelled Barbee like Barbie the doll. I was talking about the Ken doll... not Keno

I guess spelling is more important to our fan base than running a winning program.

You might want to spell check nazi before calling someone out for spelling

It doesnt hurt that maybe he could get one of his recruits to tag along to Iowa City with him

No doubt.

Nice excuse

clearly a joke... I'm not pushing for coaches that I'm not able to spell the names of correctly.

Slightly on topic...anybody watching Memphis/St John's in the NIT? It's 71-all with 10 seconds left...both these teams are ridiculously athletic!

And, equally ridiculous shot by Memphis to win at the buzzer!!!

Boy you are my hero

Memphis wins at the buzzer against St. John's. Does that help anyone? I am just looking for a reaction.

I could tell by the look on Pastners face that he is coming to Iowa!

When I hire the right coach I'll put you in charge of spelling his name on the plate above his door.

Barbee is my number 1 right now after reading Jon's write up.

I agree that Barbee is my top choice after Pearl. Pearl should be the given #1 for everyone. But Barbee is just as good, if not better, recruiter as Pastner and has a little more head coaching experience. His team also beat Memphis at Memphis, which ended a 64 game winning streak.

I think Barbee or Pastner would be able to change the dynamic of the Iowa program, even if they are only here for a few years. The fanbase should be very excited if we can get either one of these guys.
