Thanks to Gary Barta....

[QuadCityHawkeye]

We are stuck with Fran. Let’s celebrate extensions!

Barta is a freaking joke and so is Fran. Both should be fired but for reasons being the Iowa Athletic Departemnt is a bumbling mess, they both will survive like cockroaches after a nuclear bomb.

 

[Stanzi]

Neither one deserves their job. Blowing that big of a lead to a terrible Nebraska team with 7 freaking players should be an instant firing. Unbelievable. Fran is the worst fucking coach ever.

From the real stanzi to a fan of stanzi: I AGREE

Trust the process.

We can't all see the master plan.

The sun always shines after the storm.

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

Why can't our coach sign these types of players? (SUSPENDED)

(I didn't get to watch the game, shucks)

Does Fran get a bonus for finishing in the top half of the conference ? Thought I read that somewhere

I'm hearing from friends in Iowa City now that the Toussant kid is re-thinking his decision. See Fran your miscues DO cost us kids.

 

[SpiderRico]

Not only did Barta’s contract decision hamstring us...but his inept handling of everything that transpired a few weeks back totally derailed this season. Everything that motherfucker touches turns to shit!

Barta twice this year has butt fucked the basketball team in his decision making process. Both occasions on a Game Day.

This Athletic Department will not succeed (Compete at a high level) with this dip shit at the helm.

I hope he does. I hope he goes elsewhere and Iowa only wins 6 games all year. If that is what it takes to get Barta and Fran fired, I am all for it,

No truer words have been uttered. Remember Barta's rationale, in part, was that Fran came to him and said he was getting other offers and he felt like he absolutely needed to keep him. If Barta wasn't smart enough to ask WHO was offering he's a bigger idiot than he outwardly has become. Where's the UI Prez with all this? I guess blissfully happy they get BTT money otherwise this place would be a TOTAL dumpster fire.

time to clean house. Time for a coed to #MeToo Ballsless Barta, use this PC culture shit to our advantage for once

Was it King Kong or disgraceful cheating motherfuckers?

 

[The Big LeHAWKski]

This team needs an enema.

 

[Hawk90]

Time for the alumni to put a little pressure on President Harreld. Barta won't fire him. Harreld needs to fire them both.

I'm hearing the Pat McCaffery is re-thinking his choice too.

When your head coach says average/mediocrity is “tremendous” that’s a systematic issue. Participation trophies for Iowa are rewarded. Fran isn’t going anywhere unless he leaves on his terms. This is the ceiling for him at Iowa. He’s a chump. Apathy is going to set in beginning next year. The last time that happened wasn’t good. Apathy is worse than anger.

oh, look. another thread that's never been created before

Smart move by Fran to set the bar low.

Does he not have s Boss?

The President. He acknowledged Barta’s decision on Dolphin as well. He’s a dipshit as well.
