The Fran fade

Isn't Morehouse supposed to be a journalist of some kind? Seems highly unprofessional. Not that that is shocking, but still, you should at least pretend.
Are any of these talking head tavernhoks going to do some reporting on why everyone wants out of Iowa City?
No, he retired because of the Hawkeye fan Twitter backlash he received for reporting on the racial allegations this summer. He didn’t end every story with “Kirk is leading the nation in becoming inclusive” so he was berated by their fan base (and Jade) until he had to make his Twitter private.
Nah. If you play the victim card, nothing is ever your fault and you won't have to talk about it.
This is all so damn entertaining. I mean I knew it was going to be good but not THIS good. Fran is absolutely burying himself and the Iowa program. The next couple of years are going to be really fun to watch.
Next couple? Fran just signed what basically amounts to a lifetime contract.

Hawk fans are bound and determined to get their pound of flesh out of this whole Frederick transfer deal. They were wronged and someone must pay! They're not going to let go until someone is held accountable.
But that's not going to happen. Even if tampering occurred, nothing is going to happen to Frederick or Kentucky. The Hawks are going to wail and scream and gnash their teeth demanding action, and the only potential outcome is that they will end up hurting themselves.
After seeing how their school and fans reacted to this, would any recruit be MORE likely to choose Iowa? There's no win there. It literally cannot help them with recruits. The very best possible outcome is that it wouldn't change a recruit's opinion. And potentially, it could make them think less of Iowa.
I get that it sucks to get jilted, but they need to realize that the frothing furiousness is not helping at all.

Kinda quiet on HR right now. Probably all getting in their afternoon naps. Most of them are like this with the Iowa Basketball program. Notice the anger though in regards to the CJ tampering story.
They are too busy salivating over their 2025 recruiting class.
Someone let us know if there is embarrassing KXNO outrage today, I have low tolerance for any of them other than C-Willy
