Learfield Sports sucks, Steve Alford sucks and Todd Licklighter sucks.Can't get rid of learfield but thank god we are rid of SA and TL. They were never good fits and made millions of dollars at the expense of Iowa BB.It is a turning point and bring back Dr Tom every year for anything. He was a winner and his teams entertained, was a good teacher, a better coach and even better man.Wish someone would do the research and an analysis of what every win that Tom Davis coached and cost (in terms of his salary), vs what each of the miniscule numbers that SA and TL put up?Just hoping Fran can continue to do what he's doing and make Dr Tom proud.

Dr. Tom haters say he took that team to the elite 8 with Ravelings recruits and that is true but he had to rerecruit those guys and turned BJ and others into stars....
I am biased because I didn't grow watching Iowa bball with Lute or George, but instead the Doctor, reading Rick Brown's pieces in the DMR the last few weeks made me appreciate Dr. Tom even more and I didn't think that was possible.
