They haven't been, at least for awhile. First picture is women's, second men's.

Bluder is retiring.

 

[ivan_drago]

That is the most out of left field retirement I can remember.

[Herbie2]

Bluder is retiring.

 

[Shpadoinkle]

Wow.

 

[thrawn]

Do they go internal with Jensen or hire Baranzyck?

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Get the Oklahoma coach

 

[gable_guy]

So Baranczyk?

 

[gable_guy]

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Get the Oklahoma coach

And bring beers

 

[thrawn]

If you didn’t like Iowa’s defense under Bluder you’ll love Baranczyk. Good coach. Defense optional.

Beth Goetz asking if it’s too early to ask for a raise

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Holy shit

 

[gable_guy]

Must have been a hell of a vacation

 

[ivan_drago]

I think they’ve got the money to get Jenny back but wouldn’t surprise me if they let Jan Jensen get her shot either.

 

[rodg12]

Holy shit.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Wasn't bluder top-10 paid? of course they have the money.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Ferentz, Fran, and Brands along with Bluder have been around forever. She got out before people tired of her like they did with the other three. Maybe she just has fantastic timing

 

[Stu Beagle]

Good for her

 

[BuffettHawk]

Jensen seems like the obvious choice, IMO.

 

[thrawn]

I liked Bluder because she reminded me of every other 60ish woman in Iowa.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Jensen seems like the obvious choice, IMO.

which you would think having waited this long into the spring

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Jensen seems like the obvious choice, IMO.

Does she want a head job or is this a scenario like Phil Parker where he wants to be left alone and coach?

 

[Soda Popinski]

Pretty random. Hope it's not health related.

 

[BuffettHawk]

which you would think having waited this long into the spring

Or she could have had something happen in her personal life recently (e.g., health) that required the sudden announcement. It's all speculation at this point.

Anyway, back-to-back National Championship games with a generational talent is not a bad way to go out. Good for her.

 

[PoopyFaceTomatoNose]

Hire CC!

 

[Hawk&Balls]

She's 63, went to back to back title games, can't blame her for going out on top.

 

[ivan_drago]

Maybe she got Fever season tickets

 

[maintain242001]

Pretty random. Hope it's not health related.

That was my first thought

 

[Mr. Hawk]

Who was the relatively hot coach with big ol boobies that we faced in the tourney? I would prefer her.

 

[Mr. Hawk]

Holy Cross maybe? I will not DMOFR, but will accept pics that others find.

holy cross

Amy Williams would also be acceptable

 

[Hawk&Balls]

aside from the whole scandal part

 

[HerkyHopeful]

 

[hawkeyealum]

Wonder if they lose any recruits

 

[Hawk&Balls]

i would think it might help more with the long-term recruits

 

[hawkeyealum]

Already hiring her seems impossible with the lengthy hiring process Kirk always goes through

Was this job posted?

 

[ivan_drago]

I think they’ve got the money to get Jenny back but wouldn’t surprise me if they let Jan Jensen get her shot either.

Damn I smart

 

[gable_guy]

TIL Jan Jansen’s wife is Kate Martin’s aunt

 

[Mr. Hawk]

da fuq? Did that just happen?

 

[HerkyHopeful]

I don't think they probably lose out on anyone. I'm sure recruits like bluder but when you replace her with someone who has coached alongside her since forever and keeps the staff intact (I'm assuming), it's probably going to be a smooth transition

 

[HerkyHopeful]

How do they immediately hire someone? If mens basketball did this there would be someone screaming for due hiring process

 

[Stu Beagle]

Now get her a stylist

 

[BuffettHawk]

Big Dick Beth tells the university's hiring process to GFI.

She just keeps getting the job done.
