Media Butthurt over CPR and Lazard

This is foolish. They would have skewered him even worse if he had taken those visits under the cover of darkness!
John Sears is a dbag, and the more M&A defend him, the more credibility they lose. Simple as that. Yes ISU underachieved last year. But there are gonna be years like that. We aren't Alabama. KF would be fired 4 times now if we fired someone every year they underachieved. I am one for giving the coach time. The best programs are the ones that stick with their guys in good times and bad. Rhoads is our guy. Maybe firing DMac was a mistake, but that's why you don't go and make the same mistake twice.
I agree on Sears and M&A. The local media is too much of a frat here. No competition will do that.
yep got it! I'd like to see the interview if it's out somewhere though. Is their a transcript or video of the interview anywhere?
I think most of us thought Mess knew at least a little bit about what he was doing. That was expecting too much... We would've won six games with an average OC.
Hawk fans love Danny Mac and continue to defend him and they are the first to say it was wrong to let him go. This alone proves to me it was the right thing to do.
I think the media is still in shock that we were able to land Campos last year and then turn around and get Lazard this year. Both kids are from Des Moines backyard media play area. I think that really sticks out as Iowa got the kid from Indianola, but not the 4 star player we got the last couple years. The WHO boys can sit and spin!!

I think we just found the producer/director of the miller and Brinson show!!
Dead on.
I see some of this whole deal as CPR defending his guy. And as others said, because not "coach speak" people get uncomfortable.
Lol

@jwoody32 Would love to read your thoughts on the whole Paul Rhoads/Allen Lazard/Media topic that blew up today. New blog post coming soon?

I think the thing that bothers me the most is while he said he was only 97% sure he was about as committed as you can be. He recruited for us which isn't uncommon but why would you do that if you were questioning. He recruited for completely different sports when Vaughn came.
If you look at it from a objective stance (not looking for a story, waiting for a nut-shot, or a rival fan base) it was fairly clear 12 months ago he wasn't going to change.

I don't understand why M&A feel the need to defend John Sears so much on their radio show. He's no Hassel, so stop comparing the two. I love the show and won't quit listening, but the defensive stance is out of character for them and it's really annoying to listen to.
