    iowa will be on the lower end of the in-conference SOS though because they only get MSU, OSU and michigan once.

    if they finish tied at 9-9 or 10-8 with teams like purdue or minnesota then they will be in big trouble as their weak OOC SOS will bite them.

      man its funny how people's memories only go back 10 years or so.
      Dr Tom scheduled well frosted cupcakes too...but found room for UNI and Drake and a big time game like Duke or UNC.

      Man...how could I remember that far back?

          he got fired because Iowa and its fans are delusional to the point that they think they should be considered along with Duke, Kansas, North Carolina, UCLA and Kentucky in the college basketball world.

            The insubordination of recruiting Joey Range got Dr Tom fired...

              Dr. Tom wasn't fired.

                    Isn't not having your contract renewed getting fired?

                    Also, if scheduling cupcakes got Dr Tom fired...how is it going to help Fran?

                    The state of Iowa had a pretty cool thing going. It was good for basketball fans in the state. I think it was good for the basketball programs in the state as well.

                    Now, I think it's cool to play SUI or ISU every other year...but it's just not as good as getting either Iowa or ISU on your home schedule every other year.

                    I understand that Fran has a young team that he wants to build confidence with some easy wins at home...but I think it will not prepare his team to win on the road in conference play. Having to play Drake and UNI on the road would help prepare Iowa for road tests later in the season...with only a 90 minute bus ride.

                    Plus...it's bad for basketball fans in Iowa. SC State and Texas Pan American should never get Iowa fans excited.

                    Just one man's opinion.

                      he was in essence...fired. He also played crap schedules. Only time he played a schedule was when he had great teams & the schedule was already set before he could weaken it.

                        actually, not playing UNI anymore gets most iowa fans excited. not me, but most others.

                            I have only heard the opposite.

                              you must not venture to any of the iowa message boards.

                              the casual fan may wonder why iowa made their decision, or more likely not even care, but these people arent donating money or going to the games. the iowa board are much, much more in favor of not traveling to CF and perhaps even dropping UNI entirely.

                                This is correct

                                I would imagine this is also correct
