I would be interested to know what Fran thinks about his alma mater and their current situation.

Who the phuque cares, honestly? What difference does it make, one way or another? Why do you think this matters to you...or any one?
Let's take this thread in a different direction...
A lot of people care and should care, what the phuque are you talking about. You just showed the kind of person you are
Why should it matter what a university president says about the acceptability of calling for Jewish genocide? What “context-dependent” angle are we missing?
Why should he even comment?
I don't normally even respond to these types of posts, but I really don't care what Fran or some university has to say about it. I'll form my own opinions. Others are free to form theirs.
If Fran doesn't share your opinion on it... What then? Gonna demand he be canceled?
This board is getting more political than I like all of the sudden. I come here for sports, but, it seems there's no escape from this crap. Pfffft.

I heard that Fran is a huge proponent of Modern Monetary Theory. This alone should lead to his dismissal, given the pain we are all feeling right now from high inflation.
His alma mater as I'd guess he donates, grew up in the area, and Fran is an intelligent guy.
I honestly like listening to him when he's not talking hoops, he's insightful and well spoken.
My favorite part about the geniuses calling for Jewish genocide is that they also call everyone else nazis.
That’s a direction I can get behind.Let's take this thread in a different direction...
No, you’re just stirring the political crap on a sports board. Go away.
Based on how worked up it got you, it appears to matter to you quite a bit.
I thought you wanted moderation? The board is what it is my friend. Sports mixed with politics. Kind of like the real world, huh? You can hang on or jump off.
I gotta jump off. My bad. Edit: The middle fingers were for doing this on a sports board. But I did go too far.
I’m not sure of the original question, what does Fran think about what ? Israel genocide of the Palestinian women and children ? Why is the question?
Dumbest post of the year. Congratulations.
Fran doesnt condemn the condemnation of Israel genocide of Palestinian children ? What is the question here ?
Belongs in the OFF thread. Also why don't you write him instead of asking on here.?
Some of you might want to pick up a newspaper at some point. Or at the very least, be a little more aware of what is happening outside of your little bubble.
Here, I'll help you out. Below is a link to an article in yesterdays NYT.
Many universities/colleges are struggling with how to react to their students reaction to the "conflict" in Gaza. The response from the president at Penn has now forced her to resign, as well as at least one member of the Board of Trustees.
Since Fran is an alum of Penn, as well as a high profile member of a university community, his perspective might be enlightening.
Penn president resigns

Regardless, his opinion of that situation has no relevance to the Iowa men’s basketball team, or to the university of Iowa athletics in general. Since it is purely a political topic, he should have posted the question in off-topic as has been mentioned above several times.
