Lots in here want him gone, but others disagree. I’m betting he stays and todays win shows where the program is headed.
I’m betting Fran stays
- Thread starter ketelmeister
- Start date
And where is that?
So base it on one game today. Makes sense.
Yeah, fun win today, but Iowa beat a team that was crumbling late in the season. I don't read anything into it in terms of program trajectory.
The Rutgers road win earlier in the season didn't really propel this team to any new heights, either. Lost by 26 at Maryland the very next game.

I am guessing team is headed east toward Iowa City
but not where Ketelmissed it thinks.
Well alrighty then, thanks for starting a whole new thread so we could discuss the subject that hasn't been discussed before. ever never ever.
People are calling for Fran to be gone. If that doesn't happen people will be calling for Beth to go. I don't think Beth wants that. I hope the Hawks continue to make a deep run in the tournament. But it's way past time for a new coach.
I agree with you......IF they somehow win the Big Ten Tournament.
so your final analysis evaluated where iowa is as a program relative to nebraska?
Iowa needs a better system not better players. We've had 15 years of focus on offense only, ignore defense and rebounding.
Once the rumors start that McCollum's agent has been contacted by Iowa, then we'll really be cooking with gas.

Yeah, this team is "headed" toward being able to beat bad teams that are playing their worst basketball of the season.
Enjoy the win, but JFC, it is time to move on from Fran and EVERYONE knows it.
My favorite - people who click on threads and then post in them to let everyone know how they disapprove of the thread.Well alrighty then, thanks for starting a whole new thread so we could discuss the subject that hasn't been discussed before. ever never ever.
They aren’t going to want to pay Fran’s and Darian’s buyout. It would likely be close to 10 mil
So overbearing this Fran talk is.
I think they want him to stay just a bit longer, get a little better before the transition.
But maybe the fan base and the media will bully Goetz into finally calling it off. Like the NFL fans and media bullied the league to not give the Chiefs gift flags in the Super Bowl. The vibe is strong. Fans are who make the whole thing go.

When the threes are falling, Iowa looks decent. It’s the games where they aren’t, and there is no defense or rebounding to fall back on, that is my problem with Franball.
Oh, for the love of God. It’s bad enough that so many fans think that KF is the only human on earth who could possibly lead the football program to any success. Now we have fans questioning if there’s anyone who could possibly elevate the basketball program above where Fran has it now? GMAFB!
I love these quotes. So many bitch about Fran and no defense and then the some ones bitch about the football team has no offense and good defense? Hard to please everyone....I know, we're Iowa and should have both on every team.
Nebrasska has a terrible basketball team, they were on a 4 game losing streak before we extended it to 5. I'd hardly use it as an example of where the program is heading. The program needs fresh blood, it feels stale and unexciting. It's time for Fran to take a bow and leave.
