I was looking at Iowa's record over the years trying to answer the question "How does Fran keep his job?". It led me to this article on Alford/Knight written after RMK's passing: Linky
Thought I would pass it along as it reminded of how good Knight could be. When I was a grad student Knight came to the business school to talk to faculty. Since I was a Assoc Dir in the placement office I was included in the invite. I was shocked that only 12-20 folks showed up. Knight's personal charisma was off the charts that day and I left know how he could get guys run through walls for him.
Anyway, back to the original question. Fran has never finished better than 3rd in the B1G. I guess that's OK in Iowa.
