Me and everyone at the banquet in State Center. Good story though.

A lot of people?

Good story and judging from the pic, I'd say TJ is 'trading up'...

Just curious though, the way the story reads - did she date Brackins in college??

I didn't really understand why he was included in the story. It seemed like they were looking for any link they could find to connect them.

I think Craig was just someone who knew both of them and helped make the connection. Didn't Brackins date Bolte for a time in college?

. It seemed like they were looking for any link they could find to connect them.

Yeah, but this line had me wondering: "They didn’t speak, however, until Lacey said goodbye to Brackins."

Yes.

[Tre4ISU]

Huh. Didn't have a clue.

Maybe they were trying to make it REALLY clear that they didn't date until she was finished at Iowa State.

There have been some interesting Iowa State WBB relationships :)

...then don't you think it would make more sense if the writer phrased it: "they didn't speak until she finished at Iowa State" ? dooh

My thoughts exactly. "We gotta try to misdirect the readers so they don't think a 30-some year old coach isn't creeping on students."

Age is no thing, but technically he is an employee and if she were a student this wouldn't be any different than a Chemistry prof strikignitnup with a student in Gilman hall they've seen throughout the semester.

I don't know all the stories, but there have been a couple players that have gotten close to coaches/staff, correct?

Except for he really has nothing to do with her classes or basketball. I don't see any real issue even if they had started dating when she was playing. It's not like he was 50. He's 35 now so there's only about a 10 year difference or so. To me, once you hit 21 or 22, the age thing is almost irrelevant.

Cut off = (age/2) + 7

He is cutting it close.
