McCaffery introduced at Iowa

Fran McCaffery is no longer the Siena coach.

At 11 a.m. central Iowa introduced McCaffery as their head coach.

McCaffery is getting a six-year deal, that starts out around $1.1 million and Athletic Director Gary Barta said it would escalate up to about $1.35 million.

That works out more than $7 million dollars over the length of the contract.

Some other notes:

McCaffery started out by mentioning Siena and saying it was a place he loved and was a great place.

Barta joked that there would be a seat belt on Margaret's seat over at the Carver Hawkeye Arena.

It was nice to see Barta comment on McCaffery's kids, they truly are the ones who had no decision in this and had to have their worlds changed. Hopefully and I'm sure it will work out for them.
