So they are not getting a increase, and not getting a decrease. Many of the administrators in the district make close to 100,000. A pay cut by them, could save a program or a few staff members. But do they take a cut?? OF COURSE NOT!

Half true. The cuts at the High School include a Science teacher, English teacher and the entire French programs. I hope for the sake of the kids the school board wins the arbitration, so 9 great teachers are NOT cut!

(with mad meaning March Madness) With the video and promise to make Iowa a national contender. If you have not seen it yet, check it out. It all sounds great, hope it actually happens. Does anyone know, will season ticket prices decrease again this year?

Neither was Kirk Ferentz. But he can coach, and has a nice style of play. Plus, sounds like is wife has been kicked out of a game or two, she will add some excitement to carver!!

But it isn't a name that we were discussing. So this isn't going to make the fans jump for joy, because he isn't a huge name.

Sounds like he knew we needed a change too.

The kid gets into more trouble, who knows what would have happened to him if he were to stay. And after he was benched earlier this season the team started playing as 1. I think we will move on nicely after he is gone. I believe the kids from Iowa that grew up wanting to be a Hawkeye will not leave the program.

I still believe he is the reason we are in a mess. He turned fans and probably some plays away from the hawks. Much rather watch Lickliter, because I know he is no a egotistical jerk like alford was.

Iowa up by 1. Arena actually had life, it was fun being there. Even though i think a few calls were questionable. But great first half hawks!!

"pull a Alford" as I like to say. sure Iowa wont make it to the dance, but our conference is defiantly not the Mountain West Mon, 14 Dec 2009 21:59:27 +0000 http://gazetteonline.com/blogs/docs-office/2009/12/13/iowa-fans-turn-your-heads-alford-has-new-mexico-rolling#IDComment47161551 http://gazetteonline.com/blogs/docs-office/2009/12/08/iowas-lickliter-had-torn-artery-at-home-resting#IDComment46393827 Happy to hear all is well!!

Cole was one rebound away from a double-double. 24 points. good game. Hopefully this will calm people down for a day or two.

Lickliter was national coach of year. got to the sweet 16. Now think of Cully Payne and Eric May after they have a year or too of experience, we WILL have a basketball team. Think of Kirk Ferentz, in his first 3 years he went 11-24! Look at him now! We have to give the program some time.
