Tanya Alford must be one of the 2 that act like this in U.S like some idiots on here think...🤣
I'm sorry, but I just can't see Mangino charging anywhere. Waddling, yes. Charging, no.
But I get the point. Just because you're the spouse of a head coach (or head coach) at a major university does not give you the license to act like a jerk [other preferred noun edited for said decorum], in fact the exact opposite is more appropriate. (particularly in a relatively small community where your celebrity is heightened.)
It is also tasteless to issue a public statement that your son running over and killing a guy in a cross walk was totally unavoidable. Just comment on the incident being a tragedy and be done with it.
High school kids are going to behave like High school kids. A couple years back High school kids were chanting "Fire Fran" at one of Jack's games and PMAC and CMAC were there and they both got on Twitter after the game ranting about it. I think This was just before BTT and they went out and laid a 1st game turd in BTT like Fran's team's usually do.
The right thing to do is ignore it, bear it, keep your mouth shut OR quit taking the enormous amount of money for coaching a B-ball team. Let your job performance speak for itself.
Hea, Mark destroyed a few Golden corrals in the KC area in his time in Lawrence...lolol..I'm sorry, but I just can't see Mangino charging anywhere. Waddling, yes. Charging, no.

Jees, if you can't see anything wrong with the coaches wife having to literally be removed from college and high school games because of her behavior, then I don't know what else to say.

I think I’ve shared this before, but I have a friend who has a friend who was a GA or something under Mangino. He said Mangino would take a shit, wipe his ass with a towel and throw it in a ball in the corner. This kids job was to clean/launder those things.
Everyone has a smartphone and a large number of people (especially college age kids) are trying to be the next Zapruder. If anyone of any note (including D level celebs like Ms McCaffery) acts the fool in public it is going to be recorded and put on social media platforms.
Look at the pic of Mangino above. Looks like it would be a tremendous challenge for him to use the conventional method.
What she said in the press conference I referenced is public knowledge. When you make yourself a target, you take what is coming your way. She ain't Lute's wife.
The coach’s wife…………..
I dont think I’ll ever go down that road…..Have your fun….and enjoy your outrage!
Oh, you're so holier the us I guess, huh? Say want you want. Fran and by extension his wife, (especially when she crosses into territory where she doesn't have ANY business being, like berating writers at Frans post game pressers), ARE representing THE University of Iowa when in public, and very handsomely paid to do that. Everybody knows who she is when she has these very public rants, and its an embarrassment to her husbands employer. I'm pretty certain if Fran worked in an upper management position for some fortune 500 company and his wife was "removed" from numerous public functions involved with her husbands work for her outrageous behavior she'd get his ass fired.The coach’s wife…………..

“holier than thou”? Nope…. Just smarter than most, J hope. Keep your eye on the ball here and don’t listen to all the extraneous noise. Fran’s bride has never been the issue.
THE issue? No of course not. An issue, hell yes. A lot of coaches get upset about calls. Thats bad enough. How many school do you see their wives running around like a crazy person insulting people? If you're smarter then most , then that should be obvious. Hell, you don;t need to take the word of anyone here. The guys who cover the team have made their own comments about her behavior, although somewhat veiled because they don't want to get banned from covering the team. This was all known when Fran first came to Iowa 15 years ago. People from Siena were on here saying, watch out for Marge madness..
