    A. Has made Iowa State the premiere in state program and a national power
    B. Is mildly successful - ISU has been to the dance 3 out of 5 years
    C. Is on the hot seat - no improvement has been made
    D. Is no longer at ISU
    E. Is no longer a head coach

    Thoughts...opinions
    ...by Odeon. It's illegal in nine countries. Yep, it's made with bits of real panther. So you know it's good."

      My guess is B.

              I'm also guessing B, but an A- (premiere state program and annual Top 25 program) has a good chance to happen. Iowa State has not really been a national power at any time even during the Marcus Fizer-Jamal Tinsley years.

              Bruce Pearl played a style at UW-Milwaukee that is attractive in recruiting blue chip players to Tennessee. I'm not so sure McDermott's style will translate as well. He also will need to hire assistants with recruiting contacts so that he can recruit areas other than Iowa and the Twin Cities.
              "Lot of people talked about Ohio State or Georgetown or Michigan State or whoever, [or] Maryland in our bracket. When the brackets came out, the first team I looked at was Northern Iowa," Kansas Coach Bill Self.

                D. He's taken the Iowa job.
                "And immediately, (P'Allen Stinnett's) Facebook status was spouting vulgarities towards the university."

                  Hope so, just so I can hear the "dream job" speech one more time.

                    LOL, good one SP.

                    My answer is the same as for coach J, most likely D no matter how it goes. If it goes badly, as I hope, have to believe they would not keep him 5 years since they fired Morgan in 3. If it goes well he will jump at the chance to move up to a big time program, he has no loyalty.

                      You work best within your comfort zone. Coach Allen found out that bigger school, more pay = bigger headaches and not as much success. Coach Farley, Coach Salmon and others have taken the return route. Let's hope that Mac will find success and happiness at ISU. This will be one more thing we can hold over the Clones. For them to be successful, they had to hire a graduate of The University of Northern Iowa!
