Steve Alford did more positive for Iowa Basketball and stole less money then Lisa Bluder but nobody could careless. When i grew up things you could always count on Iowa Wrestling-Basketball both men and women and football. ( Women basketball in this state has a great history) Compared to some states we gave women the opportunity to play Basketball 30 years sooner. Granted during my youth Iowa had a Hall of Fame Coach in C. Vivian Stringer, who was later replace By Angie Lee not a Hall of Fame Coach, but a good one who did great things in her few years at Iowa. However she was replaced by Lisa Bluder Why? WHat did she do in 5 years?

Ok, I hear the Lisa has lost so many player do to injury? So did Angie he last year. But she was allowed 10 years at Iowa, she was fired ( ok forced to step down) After one very hard year.
IOwa has a huge history of Women Basketball players and when could find a MUCH better coach for half the money.
There has been rumors for the reason Angie was fired that have nothing to do with Basketball, But I willn't post them out of respect to her.
