Slightly off topic, but Bruce Pearl of TN is Jim Rome. Listening to this interview, there is absolutely no chance he is leaving TN for Iowa. Not unless Iowa has a alumni that can afford $7-$10 mill per year. Then maybe.

Better look elsewhere.

I was thinking the same thing. He seemed all TN.

Coach Ben did a great job on Rome today.

It also sounded like he was pretty happy at UNI and he gave some examples of coaches who decided to stay at a non-BCS school and turn down the big money. He also said that the UNI job is a lot better job than it was 6 years ago: A nice new arena, more fan support, a more established basketball power etc.

Your athletic dept. needs to give him a big raise. I think you can keep him.

Didn't hear the interview but did dig this up on the site:

I've seen a lot of the things on the hardwood in the last three decades, but I'm not sure I've ever seen anything as reckless, brass, cold-blooded and as awesome as what Northern Iowa's Ali Farokhmanesh did to Kansas Saturday. It's been 48 hours and I still can't believe it. Rock chalk, have some!

This shot is an endless source of fascination for me still. And probably always will be. One of the biggest shots in the history of this planet! Because, while he did drop a dagger on UNLV in the first round…and this is what Ali does…he takes and makes big shots…he had no business taking that, much less knocking it down.

Up one, with 34 seconds left in the game, 30 on the shot clock and with a two on one…I don't need to be Bob Knight to know what your options are. You dribble down the clock, wait to get fouled and try to ice it from the line, where he's 87%. Or, drive to the rack, and dish to teammate Johnny Moran who's there with you. Or step back, jack and make one of the biggest shots ever. This isn't local run at the "Y", where some hair trigger jacks a three in transition with none of his teammates around, they lose, and have sit out a round and wait to get back on.

If Farokhmanesh misses that, and Sherron Collins finishes it on the other end, he's the biggest gunner and goat ever. But since he made that shot, he's still a goat. Just a different kind of goat…the greatest of all time at least for now. We'll see what the kid has in store for Michigan State, I know he has something.

Wish I would have heard that... I'm sure Dannen will do what he can to put together a raise for Ben after the season. I doubt we can do much, but I think it's an easier sell to the upper administration and board of regents than it was a few weeks ago, considering all of the fantastic publicity the team created for the university.

After this I'm both more scared than ever that Jake will get poached as well as more confident than ever that he'll stay.

On one hand he's proven his worth.
On the other hand UNI is a stronger program than it ever has been. We have one of the best recruiting classes coming in. He have better everything than we did five years ago.

Please stay coach Jake!
