Iowa should have hired Dana Altman!!!

His longtime assistant at Drake would be an immediate upgrade. Young, hungry staff the plays exciting basketball, and recruits athletes to run the system.

He was available before iowa hired Fran

The time for Iowa to make a run at Altman would have been after Alford left and Iowa hired Lickliter. By 2010, Iowa hoops was a dumpster fire and Altman had many better suitors.
 
Altman will probably never see a court room but his schools have been linked to being dirty.

On Wednesday, during a playback of a of a secret recording, Oregon was mentioned again. On the recording, Dawkins and Code both described Oregon's offer to five-star recruit Brian Bowen as "astronomical" but provided no further details. Bowen was set to go to Oregon, but Code said, "let me work the phones and get something done."
 
Remember when Dana Altman went to Arkansas ... and then he didn't. :)

If I remember right, the Arkansas fan base was less than thrilled about the hire - or so I thought I heard. Than Altman backed out. Not sure if it was because of the backlash or some other reason, though.
 
BJ Armstrong with assistants to help him run the program so he could go out and recruit Chicago as well as other hotbeds of players like George Raveling brought players to Iowa.
