Anybody follow Keno on Twitter by chance? I tell you what, that guy busts it. He has got to be one of the harder working coaches out there. He is always updating twitter and has a pretty nice website with regular blog updates.

pretty impressive.

Any chance he'd come back to the state of Iowa if one of the two top coaching positions were to open up?

Wait, Todd Lickliter is getting fired?

This might sound like a ridiculous question here, but how do the words "he must be one of the harder-working coaches out there" and "He is always updating Twitter" go together?

Yes, I would say a good chance. And from what I hear, there would be a much greater chance he would end up in Ames ahead of Iowa City.

Just saying.

Also, from a friend I hear he is very down to Earth, and really enjoyed living in Iowa.

Hes selling the program, to recruits and fans... His Tweets are generally statistical updates and stuff like that, not just random crap.

Just wondered where that was going.

I love the guy as a coach. It sounded like a strange combination of words. Maybe throw that point in there the first time...

Way to early to get on this bandwagon. He won at Drake with his dad's players and has yet to get Providence into the tourney and it doesn't look like it will happen this year either. Just wondering how people here would react if he came here and we lost to Iona, which is exactly what happened at Providence this year. I am not saying he isn't a good coach, I am sure he probably is, they had a nice win over Pitt and beat Syracuse last year. Track record just isn't there yet, it may be at some point, but it isn't yet.

I think he's making $1mil/year at Providence, so someone will have to pay big bucks to draw him away from there (assuming he has some success at Providence).

The question was whether Keno would be interested in one of the top two basketball coaching positions in the state. That has nothing to do with Todd Lickliter.
