The Fran fade

[Gonzo]

Agree, people need to get a grip. My oldest is only in 1st grade so I haven't seen it yet, but it will come. My bil was guilty of this with his girls in AAU softball, it was embarrassing.

Grandparents can be just as bad. My daughters both have been in the club volleyball and school volleyball scene in DSM area and it can get beyond obnoxious. We've run into grandparents who act as childish as any of the dumb shouting parents, don't want to mention the school <coughJohnstoncough> but it's embarrassing.

You think ISU's AD has mental issues?

Yes, do you think it is normal to get kicked out of a game from the stands?

 

[GT25Ump]

Tough to watch this Minny-Iowa game, it's ridiculously physical and very few fouls, they're just beating each other up, but Garza on the bench with two fouls makes it more enjoyable.

 

[JP4CY]

Mad Fran, of course. That wasn't the issue. I thought the issue was Fran's wife getting kicked out of their kid's game. She's a psycho, but JP gets a pass for doing the same thing? It's an embarrassment no matter who does it.

Gary Barta says "hi!"

Fran with lots of naughty words to the refs after Luka throwing around some elbows.

No. Just refreshing to see the same standard applied to ISU's AD as to Fran's wife.

 

[jsb]

Getting upset at a kids game is unacceptable. But sometimes people screw up. Pollard screwed up and it doesn't appear it is a trend. Mad Fran and his wife have had more than one time where they've done things like that.

Always refreshing to see Hawkeye fans continuously prove themselves to be worthless arrogant pieces of **** by coming over to a rival's board to talk smack. Go !@#$ yourself right back over the HN message board.

They've been kicked out of more than one game?

He said "screwed up" correct?

I don't post on HN, but I like your fire.

Yeah he said JP screwed up by being kicked out and that Fran and wife have had more than one time where they've done that. Just curious how many times it's happened. Maybe it has happened more than once, I just don't know. If it hasn't, it sounds a little bit like "Yeah but with our guy, it's different."

Wow, on a rivals board you dont say?

 

[JP4CY]

Does 3 seconds in the paint exist in the B1G conference? Minny and Iowa have both gone past that number a lot.

 

[Jacktronic]

Garza, what a piece of ****. Constantly throwing elbows.

 

[mharder]

Garza, what a piece of ****. Constantly throwing elbows.

About time they called it. He does that darn near every time he gets a post touch.

 

[JP4CY]

Did the announcer just say Fran's had remarkable teams at Iowa? A decade and never seeing the second weekend in the NCAA?

 

[awd4cy]

That probable tourney Hoosier team is getting destroyed at Ann Arbor.

 

[JP4CY]

LOL announcers making fun of the Francon system.

Related: A decade and this is the first time he's had a team clearly better than Iowa State.
