Iowa Football Recruiting

[YeahBuddy]

Yes. I think they'll make the tourney next year though. Do you think Iowa will?

At this point, probably on the outside looking in.

Who is getting axed?

Toks’ football future is in jeopardy because of a brain issue a few months back. If he cannot continue playing he can still finish school on scholly and not count against the 85.

Other than that, always seems to be a couple upperclassmen that aren’t cracking the 2 deeps that decide to hang them up or move on to another program.

So next year will be Fran's last?

I didnt say that. I would want him gone but I dont think it would happen.

 

[GTO]

Played one year of high school football and was able to land an SEC offer and had some interest from Urb. Not bad at all.

I'm glad he was finally able to figure out he sucks at basketball.

You think Fran can miss 3 straight tournaments and keep his job? Lol what?

 

[YeahBuddy]

That is what I said.

 

[CyTwins]

That is what I said.

I don't understand that. Why would your AD, an AD you like and respect, keep him if he misses the tourney 3 straight years?

 

[Brandon]

That is what I said.

Do you think Barta is doing a good job?

 

[YeahBuddy]

Do you think Barta is doing a good job?

As far as what?

As far as his job. You know extensions, hiring?

Bump for @YeahBuddy

I have already said several times that I am not a fan of the extension for Fran. Who has he hired lately? Thats all an AD does is hire people and work on extensions?

 

[YeahBuddy]

How would I know?

How hard is it to understand that I would want him gone but dont think Barta would pull the trigger?

I don't understand why you think Barta, an AD you like and respect, wouldn't pull the trigger on a coach who missed 3 straight tourneys. That makes no sense

Just dont see it happening. I will be thrilled if I am wrong though if Iowa misses the tourney next season.

So assuming the situation you predicted plays out (Iowa misses the tourney and Fran is retained) you will still like Barta?

@CyTwins, is ISU still after him or did they move on?
