Fran vs Media

[Gonzo]

You’re a strange dude.

It's just funny how much she bothers you.

 

[Cyched]

Been mentioned upthread, but I can't fathom TJ, Jimmy (hell even Campbell), or Bill trying to get Walters or Heft fired.

How dopey do you have to be as a high level coach to go after the PxP guy?

 

[Gonzo]

Well, except for allowing it to happen. You can't tell me she didn't know upon taking the job. Fran in particular wasn't exactly fired for "off the court behavior."

Granted, pretty much any AD going into that situation would've likely gone about all of it the same way, but still. It festered a little bit after Barta. Doing better than Barta was a subterranean bar to clear, but the new AD did finally get there.

Barta extended him over and over for 15 years. BG fired him barely a year after taking over as full-time AD. I'd say she did better. But I do agree that Barta is a very low bar.

I can see some extreme cases where it could happen, but the magnitude that the McCafferys did? Not a chance. They are hilariously terrible levels of petty.

All you have to do is know he is a hawk fan living on a Cyclone message board to prove he's a strange dude.

Did you have to retake math in school? Divide 209 by 27 and then tell me what you get.

They pretty much win 10 games a year. I realize they had some bad seasons when he first got there. Whatever you need to tell yourself to feel better.

They haven’t won 10 games in a season since 2021 and have won 10 games twice in the last decade.

 

[deadeyededric]

Ummm. you are still far off from 10.

Jfc 8-10 wins a year. He's done a hell of a job.

 

[CyCity]

Jfc 8-10 wins a year. He's done a hell of a job.

He’s only won 10 or more games in 6 of his 27 years. If you mean he wins 10 games pretty much every year that works if pretty much in your world = 22%

He's done better since the additions of USCLAOUW than I thought he'd do. With our schedule getting so much tougher I figured we'd be 6-7 wins at most. Much of that is due to losing BF and KF loosening his reins on the offense and giving Lester more control.

 

[cyputz]

Is "she" wearing a turtleneck to hide her adams apple, or whats the deal here?

Does have that “T” vibe.

 

[cyputz]

I did color for KPGY when Donnie Duncan was coach and I sang turn out the lights after an Oklahoma punt return for TD and you would have thought I started world war 3. And I was a peon for a student radio station whose range was very small. I can only imagine the grief Ben got.

Duncan was a F’in disaster

I thought it was 10 wins on average. Now it’s 8 to 10. Try seven.

Omfg is your inferiority complex that bad? They win 8-10 games almost every year. Or have for the last 20 years. Thank God for you they went like 1-10 his first year to drove down the average I guess.

Let me guess, you got the crap beat out of you in third grade by all of the boys in your class.

22% of the time is damn good. Especially in 27 years. Let's be real it's happened 1 time in ISU history. If he isn't winning 10 he's winning 8 or 9 usually anyway.

No I have always been the one beating ass. The proof is in the ******* pudding dude. He wins. What is there to argue about? Hate them all you want, but he wins.

Wait a minute. First it was an average of 10. Now it’s only 22 percent. You failed math, didn’t you and you are trying to hide it. It’s okay.

 

[KnappShack]

Don't know a thing about this woman other than she seems feisty and is 6'1

I'll put her up there on the list of coaches wives I'd rather not scrap with.

Close, 7.
