The Fran fade

- Start date
OK well I've obviously proved over the years I have solid sources over there
He is expected to decide soon, sometime in the next week it sounds like.
You have Iowa sources telling you Robbins is heading to Vanderbilt?
You were wrong, or possibly lied, about a SEP source and Proctor the other day so just want to make sure on this one.
There is also the issue of going to a team that kept playing a bunch of guys who apparently needed surgery
Hoping Pemsl has recovered from that 140 pound brute in Cyclone Alley trying not to fall on him. Prayers for Cordell.
He has moved on to sabotaging other basketball teams. See Va Tech's 1st Round NCAA Tourney game where he allows his opponent to hit the game winning shot over him easily. Looks like he brought the Fran defense with him to Blacksburg.

I listened to the interview. It reminded me of the stories you see about school children that go to the statehouse to lobby and come back believing that they made a difference because they were heard. There was a lot of projecting on his part and his swipe at Emmert, whether deserving or not, came across as childish.
For Stansbury to say he didn't pull any punches, while factually correct, is giving Jordan far more credit than he deserves. His ability to articulate the message was not good.
Edit: It was pretty good for a high schooler, but not a college grad/team leader.

JBO is the CBB version of the Qanon shaman. Loves his conspiracies, has a beard, and is an internet troll who acts like a little kid way too often.
I had the exact same reaction. His vocabulary seems very limited for someone who’s spent five years in college.
I now have to look this up. I had no idea where he wound up.

Woof... Iowa better get busy adding transfers if they want to be a top 5-10 team (sarcasm, see tweets from earlier in the thread)
It might be tough to get out of dumbed down level of vocabulary that's needed when taking with tavern hoks.
I think a high schooler could have done better. Not a HS version or Jorbo though. Stansbury can't say anything publicly bad about Jorbo. He has to maintain a working relationship with the guy (unfortunately)
I, for one, appreciate your sources and accurate info FWIW.
That was pretty bad. Looked like they had some guys foul out which is the only reason I can fathom for why he was in at that stage of the game. Slow foot speed plus Fran tutelage not a recipe for end of game defense. Maybe he needs surgery too.
