This thread actually confirmed a couple things to me, the least of which is how banal these message boards really are. I know it’s a forum for free thought but seriously I already new this one chacrter was all wet but yowza………………..
Couple things here………….
Monty literally is a a crap spiiner plain and simple. As soon as you realise that he actually has a certain level of novelty considering he only beives about 20 % of what he even says and this thread shows that.
Erik is a great guy who thinks KF, who for all intents and purposes appears to be an upstanding human being, can’t run a tighter ship. He also seems to feel that he is inconsistent. But having “employees†that I have retained and fired over the years, I know I have let some things go were others have been dismissed because what seemed plain wasn’t. We honestly don’t know anything and if we think we do we prove our bias. I have no doubt KF has made mistakes, but for all intent and purposes I think he is doing about as good as can be expected and a similar job to 99% of all major D-1 programs.
As for a couple others in this thread they have routinely proved fickle if not out and out ill-informed and convenient. They have major bias and bitterness to the “other†university and can not be taken seriously.
When the more reasonable amongst your peers come in calling you out it is typically quite telling.
Honestly there is still a pretty significant difference between the average D11 b-ball team and a very good high school b-ball team. Furthermore there have been some outstanding high school b-ball teams in Iowa over the last 25 years so I am far from crowning Ames high anything. Finally anyone who knows this guy who did this and that and worked in the athletic department and aw this or played here there and everywhere……………..can never be trusted.
The people who really do know these types typically never use them in such a fashion and the others are boorish and grand exaggerators.
