Fran Quote on Hilton

[Cyballzz]

Not sure if this has already been posted but Fran doesn't seem to show too much respect for Hilton. Something tells me Gesell might think differently.

"Every game in our league on the road is like this one."

He also said that the Hawkeyes face a comparable environment at Marquette.

Definitely the same...

Really?

Yes, really. Classic Warner Brothers. Curve call for strike three.

Really?

Yes, really **** Iowa.

What's up Doc?

Okay denizens of Hilton - the gauntlet has been thrown down...

No ****, If I weren't 10 hours (okay, I could probably make it in 8) from Hilton, I would be on the road right now.

I trust someone will setup the prop laptop near Fran to vent on?

Generation gap!

No, icon illiteracy.

Definitely the same...

Oh my goodness. I can't believe that image is allowed on the internet. It's so hostile. I'm anxious just looking at that environment.

I dedicate this song to Fran in Iowa City:

Coaches are paid millions of dollars not to shine a spotlight on things that could negatively affect their team. Downplaying Hilton is the way to go here.

The core of that group has played at Hilton as well as other hostile arenas.

Oh, he knows. He can't say it, but he knows. Ask him again at his next job.

This would make me so sad, I like Fran. I hope he never leaves. But I had the same affection for Alford, I am afraid it is just not meant to be.

Yes, I'm sure the atmosphere is electric when the Hawks go to Penn State and Rutgers.

What a dip ****.

Don't forget Nebraska, the toughest basketball environment in America!

I can't imagine being a visitor, stepping to the line in the second half and shooting into that crowd. Insane doesn't begin to describe it.

What a dip ****.

Welsh. Ryan. Arena.

What a maroon.

Really?

Yup. And you're closing on him quickly...

 

[CycloneErik]

Really?

Welcome and yes.

Generation gap!

Hey! I knew that one. Some of us whippersnappers are cultured

 

[TXCyclones]

**** Fran. **** Iowa.

So Fran says Marquette was comparable, so Hilton isn't anything out of the ordinary. He then goes on to say there's nothing to prepare the bench players for the atmosphere, who haven't been to Hilton. He obviously knows, just doesn't want to admit it
