Sad if this is true. I listen while at the game and I really enjoyed his analytical opinions. I think he moved out of state and still came to the games to do these sideline reports
Fran vs Media

That sounds easy to do, but you are forgetting that WHO and the squawks have a long history together and have been broadcasting their games on the radio side forever. No way the station wants to lose those rights to another station in the market. Management would want to back their employee but not at the risk of losing the rights to the games.
What The F Is Wrong With Connor McCaffery?
Geesus, have you ever encountered a more thin-skinned clan than the McCaffery's. Connor played all four years at Iowa, given an opportunity, his dad was able to make generational $$$$ from Iowa and he acts like a little petulant *****. Unreal. He obviously is keeping CC from commenting on the...

I know this isn't related to the "Fran" thread, but this is an amusing read.

Pretty simple to sit on a message board and say that, but there are multiple concerns here, not the least of which is the shadow it casts on a great cause, as has been mentioned.
I am a big fan of principled stands, but often it's not quite as simple as it sounds.
I mean what's it say about Iowa that apparently he was the worst person ever yet they kept him around for 20 years lmao.
This was our OL, correct? He had always sort of danced around the CMC feud on Cyclone Sundays
Campbell was nowhere near the McCafferys’ level, but he could absolutely be thin skinned at times. Think a lot of coaches are to some degree.
Having a beef with Bruns honestly irritated me given Ben is a program alum. I enjoy his Sunday pods during the season for the even-handed analysis, and never felt like he’s taking shots at the program.
Correct. I don't remember the details of what was said but it was about our OL.
I've seen the old UNI AD (Hartzell) do that at a 9U game. My oldest was the ump for a Rec league they run in Waterloo for the travel teams and my son was about ready to toss him. Kind of disappointed he didn't.
Fans will be loyal to their team over their preferred local TV station every time. They'll just flip to KCCI or check the WOI social media instead. Way easier than writing a strongly worded letter to the Sports Info office.
Proper journalism isn't their job.
Their job is to generate clicks and maximize viewership/readership.
Burning a bridge with one of the most popular entities in the state is a poor way to do that.
He’ll need to adjust a bit now.
A bad loss at PSU and there will be 10,000 of those guys yelling at you.
WHO radio and TV haven't been owned by the same company since the mid-90s.
This was all Keith being the bigger person and not making himself the center of attention which is pretty commendable in today's world.
This isn't a new story. It got talked about shortly after it happened and in the years that followed. Andy did a 'What's bugging Andy' segment on it. Keith always tried to take the high road and didn't want it to become a bigger story than it was. This wasn't a case of local media hiding something that happened until now.
Whole family is piect of work. Is CC still part of that family? Tells you all you need to know about her, too.
Just new to Hawk fans that looked the other way or tried to gaslight
