Kind of like when Alford left. And then the entirety of Hawkeye Nation rejoiced as Todd Lickliter became the head coach of Iowa basketball.

No, Jon, Hawkeye fans want to pay someone less than 1 million a year, demand that they win 10 games/compete for national titles and expect to keep said coach in Iowa for a decade.

Goes? It's already straddling the line.


This fan base will turn me apathetic far quicker than a couple of losing seasons ever will.

Scooby it was way deeper than that. This is just my opinion but the Soup hire was (IMO) the biggest mistake KF has made in his 15 yrs at Iowa

Flame out, in how the WR corps performed in 2012.
Prior to that, I thought he was a very solid position coach.
Odd that he was let go after one bad year.
