“First JR Blount and now Kyle Green. Why are TJ Otzelberger’s assistants fleeing Ames?”

By Travis Hines

I mean, between the football program, the wbb program, the MBB assistants potentially, and even the gymnastics program, everyone seems to be fleeing Ames. Maybe people need to be asking the important question: Does Ames water suck now?

Stay tuned for the documentary story:

They are by far the bottom feeder in terms of money in the MVC. I can’t imagine why he’d be interested. Also, Tuttle married into the Deery family.
That's not even close to true from a men's basketball standpoint.

UNI has basically decided to starve football to keep MBB competitive.

Yeah, not familiar at all with that poster, but I knew that was complete BS the moment I read it.

It's falling on deaf ears, but people need to stop the damn silly.

Just curious about that strategy, knowing in tough seasons football puts 8k-10k in the stands and MBB less than 4k. And I’m not an expert in any way shape or form with UNI’s financials and how it all works.

Men's Basketball is the only sport that breaks even due to a small league media distribution (about $300k) and NCAA Tournament distributions. It's also the biggest driver of donations at UNI.

Nobody makes money on FCS football.
 
If KG had to contact UNI (according to Cole Bair) and not vice versa, I don’t think KG is in line to get the HC job.
Should have resolution tomorrow morning. Both of them are still very much in the mix.

There's a very real scenario where they just simply switch employers.

Has KG been successful in previous head coaching positions? Is his wife still practicing in CF? I believe Tuttle came back to UNI to reinvent Jake's offense. Do you consider that a success? Is that still his role? If so, does that fit at ISU (if he doesn't get the UNI HC job)?

As a Panther fan, I'm hopeful this all turns out well for UNI, but losing Green would be a huge loss for TJ and I'm not convinced Tuttle is the answer.

Agree. Hope Kyle stays.

They played extremely slow this past year. Half court offense generally looked competent though, imo.
