We are at the end of a 3-year losing season streak. Which, FYI, has only happened at Iowa one other time. If memory serves, it was in the 1930's.
The 2009-10 season is the worst that we have ever had in the history of the program.
How in the world does this guy
deserve another year?
I sure hope if I have my worst day at work ever that my boss would fire me. At least I would respect him for doing what was right for the 'company'.
But, at Iowa, the boss (Barta) feels that, after three years of absolutely horrendous results on and off the the court, 'his boy' deserves a 4th season.
Of course we are going to improve next year. a) because the BT will be down, and, b) when you are at the bottom you have to rise at some point.
And, we get to be the laughing stock of the BT men's bball circuit a little while longer.
Who knows, maybe the concessions folks will make it $1 dog and $1 cones night every night at Kinnick as so we can average 5000 per game.
