DeVries NOT a candidate for Iowa job. Ben McCollum the next Iowa Head Coach?

[Franisdaman]

That always sounds good with a new hire.

i wonder if Beth will continue the tradition of being patient with coaches

There’s a difference between being patient and being lazy.

the large buy outs didn't help, either

The large buyouts happened because of laziness by Barta.

My wife, Margaret, says HELL NO!!!!

Drake needed a Margaret to help with yelling at the refs tonight.

Would they have T'd up Izzo if Izzo did what Ben did?

I think you already know the answer to that.

Izzo could shoot someone on 5th Ave., and he wouldn’t get T’d up.

just another example of the horse shit officiating

Welcome to the B1G, Ben!

 

[Franisdaman]

I’ve stopped looking at any WV posts - they seem desperately overconfident.

i wonder who they'll end up with

 

[Franisdaman]

Hopefully Stirtz comes with Ben

 

[Franisdaman]

Apparently the Utah State coach.

the coaching carousel, man....

Texas Tech's GM:

 

[Franisdaman]

Lots of mixed opinions and speculation both ways. No different than here.

I think a lot of things will shake out on Monday.

I wonder if they will have the announcement tomorrow?

 

[Franisdaman]

Yeah I mean no one really has any effing clue, despite the “inside information.” That goes for both fanbases. Everyone’s just desperate.

i think we will be happy tomorrow

 

[Franisdaman]

 

[TampaHawkfan]

Yep - can I at least just see 1 decent tourney run in my life? I'm in my 30s lol

Im 48 so I remember the Elite 8 run in 1987. How great it was. Sorry you missed it!

 

[DougFHawkeye]

What's she been here like a year...she's moved out Brian and Fran...I'd say probably not a lot

 

[TheTruthTheWholeTruth]

No inside of my info but I’m starting to think Ben McCollum is our guy.

Oh?

 

[Underscore2]

Good article, but no new insight - except why he chose Drake is interesting, more fuel for the fire.

 

[Franisdaman]

Imagine what those Iowa players would cost now!!!!!

How much would BJ, Roy, Ed, etc have made if the portal existed back then and they entered after Raveling left?

 

[Franisdaman]

Woke up, no change.

 

[Franisdaman]

The large buyouts happened because of laziness by Barta.

Unfortunately, most major coaches will get a HUGE buyout as part of their contract.

Now, we need to add:

Bennet Stirtz
Josh Dix
Pryce Sandfort
Cooper Koch

Will be even better if his best player comes, too

Rumor is Stirtz, Howard and Trevin Jirak (UNI signee, Iowa player of the year)

 

[Franisdaman]

Rumor is Stirtz, Howard and Trevin Jirak

the transfer portal is gonna get crazy

 

[AEG82]

Bring them all! Immediate culture change. Immediate chance at winning too. B1G is tough but BM has the right attitude IMO.

Nope

I think he needs to be sure he constructs a roster that can win in the B1G
