LOL we're going to be left with whoever Iowa doesn't want, despite effectively having gotten rid of our coach a month ago.

Anyone but Brownell and McDermott.  Hopefully these are all smokescreens.  They struck out on Brad.  Now float out dumpster fire hires like BB and GM so when they announce McCollum or Otz or whoever we are all elated.

If this is all smokescreens to hide a TJ Otzelberger hire I will be besides myself with joy.

I realize plenty don’t want to address the truth of what happened, but that’s what happened. And he didn’t forgo anything. 

Since you’re the grammar expert, is it appropriate to begin a sentence with “and”.  Furthermore, should the period be within the quotations or outside?  I’m asking for a friend.  
 

Appreciate your contributions to the board, btw :)

What question haven’t I answered? I don’t post everything I know, but I haven’t dodged any questions.

I thought I saw where someone asked you 'who do you think the next coach will be?'. If not - I'll ask - who's IUs next coach?

DeVries definitively has more D1 experience. But to note, McCollum is from Iowa City, raised in Storm Lake. I read that his mom has a degree from Iowa, he grew up a Hawkeye fan and it has been reported that's the job he wants.  

Will be interested to see what Iowa does here, and if they can pull DeVries from WVU.

IMO I'm very skeptical there is legitimate interest from Iowa in DeVries. I think his agent likes his name tagged to open roles so he can get more out of WVU. Maybe he really does want to come home though, despite the financial struggles. Even if that is the case, I don't see Iowa making that kind of investment in men's basketball. They are in a great position to take a bet on a high upside, low cost coach who could be there for 20+ years. IMO he is their #1 choice and he will be officially announced shortly after their tournament ends.

It's pretty sad that they probably have more immediate options than we do. 

We could hire Fran and give him 6 mil in NIL lol

Isaac said it's all smokescreens for Brad .... let's at least shoot for that first!

So they paid him to retire? Bullllllshiiiiiiit. Oh, you want to retire? Say goodbye to the rest of your salary….

No, he wasn’t. He probably would’ve been in the next week, but he wasn’t then. 

So if he quit, why is the university paying him $8.4M? You have to pick a side.

Kathy is such a drag on this board. Makes my day worse when I see the username post without even reading whatever non-sense jargon side-speak he/she slops down

no coach is talking to any other school right now so there's no possible way of knowing

- Kathy (probably)

Brownell would be equal to hiring Alford. We don't need that

To me those two would be like UK having to hire someone like Mark Pope, damn that is who they hired

It’s why it didn’t happen. We knew there wasn’t any advantage to an early termination. It gave us nothing in terms of the next coach.

He was forced to resign and he tried to quit. They agreed to finish season and he would move on.
