Pod won't play on my computer. Anybody have some highlights?
It's 90 minutes long. First 20 minutes are about HS track. He was a 9 time state champ.
Talked some about HS basketball and why they never made it to state.
Talked about signing with ISU even though he was a die hard Iowa fan. In HS, had an open invitation from Eustachy to come play/workout at ISU whenever he wanted so played a lot with ISU players.... 60 miles from home, really liked assistants so signed with ISU. Liked playing and going to school there.
After Eustachy's problems he was on committee to search for a new coach. Felt that Morgan was hired to keep recruits and might be gone in 2 years. Didn't like all of the turmoil or the idea of possibly playing for 3 different coaches so looked to transfer. Wanted to stay close to home so considered Creighton but really liked Iowa. Knew a lot of the Iowa players from HS days. Knew it would be rough coming back to Hilton. Not one bad thing to say about the school or even Eustachy.
Alford taught him more about the game, Eustachy taught toughness.
Talked a lot about his years at Iowa.
Talked about getting drafted and how injuries at the worst times derailed his pro career. Played in Israel until injured again. Turned down an offer to play in Czech republic due to young family.
