Any chance he’ll come back to the college game? If he did, Iowa must throw the checkbook at him.
Brad Stevens
- Thread starter IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life
- Start date
If he did, he wouldn’t crawl headfirst into this dumpster fire.
You don't extend and fire a coach in the same season.
IU tried to pry him out of Boston; looks like he's happy there
Iowa should've hired Altman instead of Lickliter. Gotta think he would have jumped from Omaha to IC.
You have to be raw with how much you are rubbing it to Iowa losing
Oregon is easier to recruit to than Iowa city. Nike headquarters, kids love that stuff. Iowa has nothing like that.
Troll job? Just no.
Only NBA coaches going back down to college would be for a Duke, UNC, or Kansas type job. If somehow Iowa were to get an NBA coach after Fran, it would not be one of the most sought after NBA coaches. It would be a lesser known Kings or Grizzlies type coach. Iowa is not a sought after position. Our tradition isn't that great comparatively, and that impacts historical recruiting too.

Just a big Hawkeye fan tired of seeing the same shit year after year. Tired of having 3-5 players EVERY YEAR that don’t belong on a Big Ten b-ball scholarship. We need a talent upgrade at all positions, except center the past two years. Next year the cupboard is bare boys.
There’s about 10-15 of them. I can only assume it’s some huge circle jerk going on. We’ll probably see another run on toilet paper thanks to these clowns.
No you are not, it is pretty obvious you are a jealous Cyclone fan right now. Iowa has the attention and you are upset you cannot win more than2 games in a year.
Yeah, a guy with ties to the state and town, and he was fired. Great example.
If Stevens wouldn't take the Indiana job, he's not coming back to the college game.
He would need to flame out hard in the NBA, and then take a short break, before coming back to coach college.
That wasn’t the comment. Iowa hired Lickliter in 2007 and Altman didn’t go to Oregon until 2010. The comment made was that Altman likely would have been interested in Iowa in 2007. Iowa was coming off the Alford years, which were not great, but Iowa had not yet become the dumpster fire they would under Lickliter. Altman has always been a good coach and I think he would have been successful at Iowa...he sure as bleep would have been more successful than Lickliter was.
I disagree, especially if Joe W returns. IMO even without Joe W, we'll defend better and run better with PMac, the Murrays, Perkins, CJ (when healthy), Ullis/Joe T (if Joe T learns to play within himself), and Nunge.
Nobody wants to believe that but I honestly think that many here will be shocked at just how average these players look without Garza on the floor.
We’ll see.
Also, if we are finishing in the field of 64 most years with said roster, what does that say about the other big ten teams?
GO back to the cyclone board. They will just need to hope to get back to looking average
Exactly. I'm not comparing Iowa and Oregon but I'd like to see what an Altman-led Iowa program would have looked like.
THE same Week? DO not underestimate Our AD.. Can Brian Coach BB? Pop will HELP.. AM kidding??? 2 of our HC's know how to BARK huh?
Well there are exceptions. Hoiberg already had established success in college, but lost control of his team in Chicago and was an embarrassment. So he went down to Lincoln to a school with no basketball tradition. Quality NBA coaches are not going to college unless it's a blueblood program throwing huge guaranteed money.
