This conference is there for the taking in the next few years. It’s down even bringing in the PAC 12 teams. Iowa is one coach away from being a contender. Would this be a difficult decision if Barta didn’t extend Fran’s contract. Holtmans buyout is the same and I know Ohio St has big pockets but a coaching change is needed in order for the program to take advantage of this window of mediocrity in the conference!
