    Is the whole thing with AK just Brady Hoke sticking a finger in Kirk's eye?

    I actually heard AK had committed...co-committed? Kinda-sorta-committed? To Auburn Sunday, then backed off it. Then Michigan roomers. I could see UM making a push to take a stab at KF as the B1G OL guru, but Aub? Weird deal.

    Is the whole thing with AK just Brady Hoke sticking a finger in Kirk's eye?

    Is that why the late play from the Mulverines came? This seems even a mightier fiasco than Blake Larsen. I hear entire newspaper staffs in Singapore are waiting breathlessly by the wire to get the skinny.

    It's Barta's job to hire a coach that wins

    And that would still calculate to a higher mean number of wins per year than KF has accumulated. I'm not saying fire the guy. But his obstinacy in refusing to acknowledge reality is a bit exasperating. Pederson actually seems to try to win games as opposed to scheming not to lose. That is...

    It's Barta's job to hire a coach that wins

    Are you certain about this? The Analysts don't think so much of our class. And you should never cross the Analysts...you have no idea of the damage they can do. Look at Boise's class: it's very Iowa-like with one exception...they do not stock up on LB/TE type stem cell players from Grundy...

    University refuses to release records about Marcus Coker

    I think we could handle getting rid of Sally. She's been the UI version of Jan Brewer, just not as.....well, fugly as the haggard Old Nymph of the Desert. Shay Laren would make a fine UI PreZ.

    Most Exhaustive DC Search Ever Taking Place

    Re: Most Exhaustive DC Search Ever Taking Place This is an incorrect meme.? The Most Exhaustive OC Search Ever Taking Place (TMEDCSETP) did not involve Norm's replacement. TMEDCSETP involved 4,638,297 redditors, /b/tards, anons, and various unaffiliated lurkers and trolls simultaneously...

    Lemming: tOSU could have No. 1 recruiting class

    OK, so the lesson we learn at Iowa is that it's basically OK to let car salesmen do your recruiting for you? So can anyone get a hold of Whitedog Auto and/or Des Moines Auto Imports? Bet they could snag some burners for us who can catch footballs....

    It can be embarrassing to be an Iowa Fan

    Well, hell. See, that's a legitimate gender difference. How many of those Naperville waitresses are just former sorority Frat-Trash, whose sole abiding justification for attending UI was to find Mr. Napervillewaitress so he can fund their tile-roofed McMansion and backyard-pool lifestyle? It...

    Contination of KF win or send players to NFL thread

    OK, so most of us wrote that winning football games is the primary duty KF has. What constitutes an acceptable winning % since I think most of us agree that winning is the main job duty? How much losing is A-OK? For the guy that posted the blurb regarding "the art of football".....please...

    First time member here dood. You might investigate ad hominem. You're doing it wrong.

    Obstinacy

    Sure thing Fred. You must be right. Because the alternative is something that sits like ****** upon your tongue. You just keep attacking that wall with your head. Eventually one of them will give.

    It can be embarrassing to be an Iowa Fan

    It can be embarrassing. You feel like Ritchie Blackmore sometimes.......you know you're just inherently better than 90% of the rest but you tire of evincing it. Surrounded by folks who "went to college in Iowa City".......lotsa guys answer the question like that...in between sparse thoughts...

    How does recruiting end up for the year?

    Years. Graduated twice with an interstice at ISU for a Master's. I majored in muff.

    Is KF's job to win football games or send bodies to the NFL?

    M'kay......can you do that without adapting to changes in circumstance? Trying to impose a certain model onto uncooperative reality is kind of......dumb and counterproductive.

    Is KF's job to win football games or send bodies to the NFL?

    OK so I look at it this way. Who's the a$$-kicker on-staff? Who cracks skulls and drills the kids into the ground, like a sort of football version of Gunnery Sergeant Tom Highway? Forcing the kids to improvise, adapt, overcome? Which member of the STAFF improvises, adapts, and overcomes...

    There is a lot of truth to the above. Explanations of this phenomena would be helpful too. :eek:

    How does recruiting end up for the year?

    Never said corrupt. I follow because I am an alumnus, completing two degrees at UI. I love the UI. It is the crown jewel of this state. Yet, I did not say I pay the UI blind obeisance. The intellectual qualities the UI instilled in me gave me quite the ******** detector. If I suspend...
