    I was, early 80's..........undergrad assistant.

    Bobby Stoops was the starting strong saftey
    Mike Stoops was also in the secondary
    Kurt Ferentz was the strength coach
    Barry Alvarez was the defensive coordinator
    Bill Snyder was the offensive coordinator
    Hayden Fry was head coach

    There are many more coaches and players that many of you would recognize.


    Bobby and Mike Stoops were in my "coaching of football" class, as well as many other classes. I will never forget how pissed I was to recieve a "B" in this course.

            Just a few of the coaches under Fry.......

            Kirk Ferentz, Iowa, 1999–present
            Bob Stoops, Oklahoma, 1999–present
            Mike Stoops, Arizona, 2004–present
            Bill Snyder, Kansas State, 1989–2005
            Barry Alvarez, Wisconsin, 1990–2005
            Bret Bielema, Wisconsin, 2006–present
            Dan McCarney, Iowa State, 1995–2006
            Chuck Long, San Diego State, 2006–present
            Jim Leavitt, South Florida, 1996–present
            Bo Pelini, Nebraska, 2008–present
            Fishhead, SBR, 2005-present

            I was very good friends with Barry Alvarez, and in fact, spent Thanksgiving at his house one year.

            Barry Davis, who is now the head wrestling coach at Wisconsin, was one of my closest friends when I attended Iowa.

              and here's two somethings most college football fans do not know

              hayden fry was nicknamed "the silver fox"

              and

              the visiting locker rooms at iowa's home stadium are painted pink inside, because coach fry was big into psychology, and felt that the pink color inside softened up the opponent

              fishhead, are you impressed in the slight by this knowledge?

                          My first wager of at least $1,000($1650) was on the 1982 ROSE BOWL.

                          I took Iowa -3...........they got hammered 28-0.

                            He's got better things to do than respond to a piss-ant like you. I don't as the game I've got action on I've got a very safe lead so I got the time. Like him or not, the guy's done the damned thing and has forgotten more than you'll ever learn and know for wagering. He's one sharp fvcker although at times he tries to play that part of his game down and you'd do well to shut and listen. Have a nice day.

                                Probably not, for many reasons.

                                4. Lots of sports action on TV

                                3. Have some live auctions I have to attend

                                2. Need some quality time with girlfriend

                                1. ......and the #1 reason is that the last few months I have royally sucked donkey balls in the poker arena.

Bobby Stoops was the starting strong saftey Mike Stoops was also in the secondary Kurt Ferentz was the strength coach Barry Alvarez was the defensive coordinator Bill Snyder was the offensive coordinator Hayden Fry was head coach There are many more coaches and players that many of you would recognize. Bobby and Mike Stoops were in my "coaching of football" class, as well as many other classes. I will never forget how pissed I was to recieve a "B" in this course.
