What about Brody Boyd?

[storminspank]

He's still in the area already teaching kids basketball....

Just thinking about the former players that might fill the spot.

 

[HawkKing81]

Good April Fools. How about Greg Helmers?

 

[hawkeye2188]

I liked Brody as a player if he has experience why not. He would be familiar with indiana.

Dismissing the Greg Helmers talk: looks like he's in the film business Greg Helmers - Trailer - Showtimes - Cast - Movies & TV - NYTimes.com

Don't dismiss the Brody Boyd talk.

I'm being serious, though.

Anyone know if Rod Thompson is in the area? He was unselfish and might just be the type to make it as a coach.

It seems like the guys who didn't play a lot in their days end up making the better coaches

I'd like to see B.J. Armstrong.

Are you suggesting Rose would be interested in an assistant position? I imagine he could recruit Chicago well.

I think he could recruit quite a lot of places well, hes pretty much a household name.

Rod Thompson

Search over

I'd be down with boyd.

I saw him and JR at a West Lin Mar game a few weeks back. That has nothing to do with this conversation, I just thought I'd name drop.

He could teach the kids how to foul within 20 seconds of coming into the game! Actually, last I heard he was living in Des Moines. Not sure what he was doing for work though.

Stop doing a storminspank impression.

How is Brody qualified to be an assistant for Iowa?

It should take more than just playing for Iowa to be qualified for this position. You should either have some assistant experience somewhere or have contacts.

Ahh good ol "Bucket"!!!

Chris Kingsbury

 

[BirdVito]

Matt Bullard? He does color for Houston Rockets, has a basketball camp, and he once told some NBA refs that they are terrible. That gets him ready for Hightower and Valentine.

Chris Kingsbury

Isn't he banking in Nebraska somewhere??
