@ChadLeistikow I’ll bet you a Carver cone that she transfers again next year

@Alex_Drain It's as if in the past two years we all forgot what competence looks like

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@Tyler_T15 Iowa plays hard and is finally a pleasure to watch at both ends of the floor. But effort can only make up for size deficiencies to a limited extent and they are going to struggle against the top third to half of the B1G.

@Johnubacon John, do you think Warde will get fired today?

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@ScottDochterman Agree completely Doc. And just because Indiana hit the coaching carousel lottery doesn't mean it's likely to happen to any other program. Iowa's program is admired by those in the know and disparaged by fans with unrealistic expectations. Go Hawks!

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@PCAGoldGlove Like I said…

[Scott Dochterman @ScottDochterman]

West Virginia made a strong push throughout the day yesterday and Ben McCollum listened like anyone would. He weighed his options and toured Carver last night. He then made his decision.

I haven’t spoken on or refuted anyone’s reporting nor will I. I report the way I report.

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@EricHanneman1 @RobHoweHN @ScottDochterman Gotta hire the right coach. Easier said than done.

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@HawkeyeFederal1 @ChadLeistikow She was prepared to offer increased NIL according to reports. But Indiana simply has resources allocated to men’s basketball that Iowa cannot compete with. Bad luck that IU targeted the same coach as UI.

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@HawkeyeFederal1 @ChadLeistikow Disagree—the fact that CHA was two-thirds empty cost the athletic department millions. Whatever one’s opinion of Fran as a coach he simply had to go.

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@ChadLeistikow @ScottDochterman Microcosm of Fran era: fun O but No D. What’s the over under on # of days until Beth makes an announcement? (I say 5)

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@ChadLeistikow Excellent article Chad. Iowa is a very difficult place to coach--limited D1 talent and hard to get quality out of staters to come with lack of post-season success. On balance I think, despite McCaffrey's relative success, it's time for a change.

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@AmericanAir No deicing is occurring and no announcement has been made

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@AmericanAir flight 2973 from ord to indy has been sitting at the gate for an hour with no explanation. What Is happening???

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@mikevlach @NicoleAuerbach Underrated truth

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@NicoleAuerbach Strong words Nicole. As a fellow Michigan alum we faced a version of this dilemma in 2020 with Harbaugh who looked himself in the mirror and figured it out. Day may be too mentally wrecked to do the same.

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@NicoleAuerbach Too much frustration just like sometimes at Iowa

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@NicoleAuerbach Good article despite the lack of breaking news. She strikes me as sort of a female Bob Knight except...most of his former players love him. Her former players...not so sure.

[Jason B. Lassner @JasonBLassner]

@NicoleAuerbach Nothing like Illinois vs Iowa to stir my chili on a February evening #B1G West Reincarnated
