Name the field 'Fry Field' while we can still honor the Man!! Each year that passes makes what Hayden accomplished and started more incredible.

That statue is really freaking cool. Did they state where they are going to place it? Will it be in the south entrance like Kinnick?

No, it's going to be on Hayden Fry Way out in Coralville. It needs to be by the stadium.

Wucking Fhat?? Not by the stadium. Way to select a chunk of real-estate in Coralville to designate to him. I agree, Get it around the stadium.

 

[judzeehawk]

Why in the HE!! isn't it going to be at the STADIUM? Are you kidding me?

 

[RobHowe]

Yes. It's going to be in Coralville. The city commissioned it so they've putting in the road it named in his honor.

There should be one at the stadium, though.

Iowa has had many great coaches. Hayden and Gable are my two all time favorites.

It's 2016 and I dare say 75% of the posters on HN really can't grasp how low Iowa had fallen. In 1979 Iowa was last in the conf. when it came to recency of winning seasons.

It would be kind of neat if it were Fry with his arm around Chuck telling him what play to run. Since they both had a huge hand in resurrecting this program. You could kill to birds with one stone that way.

I would have had HF put one leg in and one leg out then shake it all about.

Absofrickinlutely it needs to be by the stadium! It's a head scratcher that it is even thought of to be anywhere else.
