Very different PR approach compared to DeVries.

Drake's Ben McCollum on coaching carousel: 'I just refuse to have a divided heart'

Drake basketball coach Ben McCollum talks about his name coming up in this year's coaching carousel and described how he deals with that outside noise

I just refuse to have a divided Sandfart. I won’t watch unless they are on the same team.

How’s that gonna happen?

 

[maxinquaye]

How’s that gonna happen?

I WILL NOT HAVE A DIVIDED SANDFART!

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Go pro in something other than sports.

Dembele in the portal.

Darn.

Are they timing it out so they all have the day to themselves?

Dembele was a step behind the rest just like on the court.

I think we can take Brad Brownell off of Beth’s (or anyone else’s) short list after that horrendous first half performance.

Just signed a new 6 year extension yesterday. Whoops.

I like to say the "world, according to Moe Howard", and this post could be sagatoogie. I find it very interesting all the so called, "experts", are predicting where all of the ex-Iowa hoops players will end up, they make them sound like they played on Magic's LA Lakers, as in showtime. Whoops, these guys finished 15th in an 18 team league this year, lost second game in this year's Big Tournament and last year. Really, what that tells me they are all role players at best, they will need to hook up with a team with a very good support/team roster or get your ass to a Mid-Major and enjoy your remaining college years, go to Europe, (not Russia, very bad, bad, bad).

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Who is doing any of that

Have you ever tasted yourself, Moe?

And trading his NIL situation and recruiting base here for Iowa would be stupid.

 

[Moe Howard]

Oh Christ, between Dix and Freeman, some of these blogs etc. have them looking like Magic and Kareem, (for full disclosure here, I am a Lakers Fan), these are mainly coming from On3, I think that's what they call it, the one I loved was the Ilinois gig, understanding Freeman is from Moline, they also mentioned Harding should be their primary targets in the portal, I can fart and knock Harding off balance and Freeman will take one more serving of chili and I got him too. They have Dix as one of the primary targets at Auburn, wow who would of thunk?

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Have you been outside lately?

 

[Moe Howard]

Yes, full disclosure, I got tested for rabies a couple of years ago, Franny boy bit me on the course at Finkbine when I asked if I could play through his foursome when I was a single, oh for the record, I had to seek out counseling subsequent, he told me to fuck off prior to the carnivorous act.

You sound like you love to suck cock, Moe.

Welcome.

 

[Brad Wesley]

Starting to think Indiana is going to fuck Iowa twice on the coaching search. West Virginia getting $6.5 million from IU for the Devries buyout puts them in a great position to hire McCollum. $3.5 for coaching salary and the remaining $3 for basketball NIL.

[Moe Howard]

"Whose cock, what cock, where the hell did, I dine". Thanks, just having a little fun, like all of you, nothing serious from Moe Howard.

 

[BngHawk]

Of course Lee is all about liking cocksucker posts.

I was more liking the welcome part. I’m all inviting. Love for sucking cock or not.

And that’s what makes you the best

 

[Moe Howard]

Gentlemen, we've had a hell of a first day, thanks for your hospitality, I will need to discuss the "cock sucking", with my therapist, she will I'm sure lead me in the right direction.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Worse debut: Moe or Cyko?

 

[Moe Howard]

I vote for Moe, ya in?

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Shut the fuck up.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

he actually gets asked this a lot.

Nope. You do.

There's plenty of good hires out there who didnt grow up in Iowa. Relax.

Iowa will be fine

 

[Moe Howard]

Shut the fuck up.

I didn't say a thing, I just typed it, have a quaalude on me and call me in the morning, oh my rate is 400 bucks an hour.

 

[Revolver]

Ahhh, the classic “coming in too hot” routine.

 

[cloudhawk]

Fuckin' noobs

I’ll be disappointed if we don’t get McCollum because I think he’s a good coach, not because he has ties to the state.

 

[Brad Wesley]

Added bonus of continuing the Iowa tradition of coaching his son. The Waukee to Iowa pipeline lives on!

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

I think he would be the non-Fran/Lick type coach who is actually harder on his son, instead of coddling him like a fucking faggot.

He seems like a no bullshit kind of guy.

This and the perception of our program will take a big hit IMO. If we swing and miss at two Iowa guys coming home for their "dream job"? Not good.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

I hate to say it but I think @L. Wade Childress was right after all about Iowa/the A.D. having issues and getting in their own way.

 

[tallperson54]

Someone who would know just texted me that McCollum to Iowa is a done deal and will be announced shortly after Drake loses.

 

[Saul Berkley]

I hate to say it but I think @L. Wade Childress was right after all about Iowa/the A.D. having issues and getting in their own way.

Expand on this a bit. I do agree that if she can't land McCollum, I will start to lose faith in her ability to sell the program (not that it's an easy sell).
