Pens out ready to go.

Perhaps not everyone is as receptive to the coaching. Not all people are equal ya know. A great example of this is Amani Jones. I don't think there is alot of question that he is more athletic than any middle linebacker we had this year, and i would even venture a bet that he is more athletic...

There were a couple of quotes saying he has a pretty nice deal, which i don't fully disagree with, but there are also quotes saying hes doing a hell of a job... Seems like a bit of a wash. What I dont understand though is how people on here just think he is just a garbage coach. Is he the best...

Would love to see the quotes of other coaches saying kirk doesn't deserve what he has gotten...

Ya how terrible for them to lose all of these blowouts this year... I'm sure we can buy out Nick Saban. I hear hes chomping at the bit to move to Iowa...

I think going from an NFL talent to an unknown freshmen has an impact. The game is won and lost in the trenches is a pretty well known truth in football. I am also not saying Kirk is perfect by any means either. The lack of receivers has been abysmal. WIth that being said though I like a couple...

Well I bet Ike would have helped us win more games had he not gotten hurt in his senior season. Sometimes things don't pan out perfectly

Not sure if they are all better than daniels... remember that Kirk is not one for hyperbole much and I believe his statement on Daniels was something like the best hes coached at his position... which is a position hes coached for a very long time...

No reason to ban him in my mind. I enjoy the outside perspective he brings.

I don't think they have any doubt that he is special. Phil has put in plenty of younger players over older players in on defense. Maybe there are things that Parker hesse does better than AJ at this point and that is why he gets more snaps. Maybe AJ's motor isnt there to go longer yet... just...

Take a picture of your tickets next to a current newspaper. Then Fry cant argue it.

This is a great one...

Well you have to continue to give guidance to the players. These are 18-22 year olds, and honestly I would bet NFL coaches need to continue that as well. Also, if you promote a player even if they are not listening to the coaches that can create a negative environment. There are plenty of...

To say they don't go after highly rated recruits is just not true. Just look at any scouting website and look at who Iowa offers. There are 5 and 4 star guys on that list but its not easy to convince joe schmoe from texas to come to middle of no where Iowa and freeze his ass off.

mmmm great book...
