Today stinks?!?!! The last 35 years have stunk. We haven’t been a good team since ‘ 86-‘87 with very few exceptions. Our recruiting continues to be pathetic. Outside of Keegan, none of our scholarship players would have started for Richmond.
All you fair-weather “fans” need to get a life!
I see a diminished interest in Iowa BB next year and attendance at-home games perhaps reaching the Lickliter era. But nothing will change because of the huge buyout of Frans contract. A sad mess for a once proud program.
Neither has delivered much in the postseason.
Without Keegan, there’s maybe one or two Big Ten caliber players on the roster. This team would struggle in the MAC. Not worth the price of parking, much less the ticket!
So you enjoy 1 Sweet 16 in 34 years?!? Maybe complacency like yours and many in this fan base has played a role in this 3 decade shit show. Expect more than 10 losses per year.
Your online bitching after every loss has definitely made a difference, keep it up.
So the team that tied for fourth and won the BTT would struggle in the MAC? 🤔
"...attendance at-home games perhaps reaching the Lickliter era." You can't be serious. I went to games during the Lackluster era. Could hear a pin drop. We just won the BTT and went 12-8, far above anyone's predictions. Todd never came CLOSE to that. Stop with the hyperbole.
While I typically never refer to another human as garbage, I'm tempted to do so in your case, Roy.
Funny how teams like Richmond can have a point guard 4-5x better than Fran has ever had at Iowa.
Somehow you absolutely know what the atmosphere will be like at Iowa next year? I'm impressed.
I, for one, choose not to participate in such sophomoric exchanges. In fact, tonight, along with my good lady friend, I will be enjoying a splash of Blanton’s bourbon along with a Monte Cristo White Series cigar. Cheerio.
Well, you predicted attendance similar to the Lackluster era. I'm predicting otherwise based on the team's consistent upper division finish in the B10 and frequent NCAA berths, things that never happened under Todd.
Actually, it’s been very acceptable that’s why every year has been the same. No one really gives a shit.
You’re right, teams losing to F’n Richmond in the tourney always have out of control demand for tickets the following season. They may have to build another level on top of Carver to fill the demand!
Pretty hard to argue that! Until expectations change results won’t either.
And where might you be drinking in this fine bourbon while smoking such a wonderful tasting cigar? I prefer the patio at the Cracked Conch restaurant on Grand Cayman for such a feat after a wonderful meal. It is nice to see them serve you the gold labeled International bottle of Blanton’s and a fresh from the humidor Cuban cigar - Cohiba, Romeo & Juliette, or another selection.
UI administration has never really wanted a winner. Just a “nice” program similar to a 1950’s high school team. A place for families to gather, but winning is secondary.
Roy…of course true fans give a shit. The difference is fans like you that go overboard when their team loses. Heads up… this won’t be the last Iowa loss that will upset you.
