The Thompson kid won’t leave oregon to sit behind McNamara. That’s not how it works. That’s the interesting thing about this. Ferentz is always about the upperclassman, the incumbent, the next man in. To go back on mcnamara and start Thompson or another transfer is just not how he rolls. Is it...

If you really believe the best Iowa football teams in our lifetime has been the last 9 years then i can’t help you because you don’t get it. The Hayden stretch from 81-early 90s was far and away better and it isn’t close. In every way other than meaningless wins

He did what he always does. Shut the entire offensive coaches and players from the media. Wouldn’t take questions about the future, just the game. Basically, said we had a bad day, turned the ball over, penalties and praised Tennessee, a team playing with backups at tons of positions. He got...

“Take that chance“? lol

You are doing what other defeatists do… talk n extremes. The answer isn’t one or the other. And i’d settle for hayden fry again. There are droves of great, young coaches looking for stability. Not all leave at the first sign of success. If they do, hire another one. I get tired of hearing the...

People that really understand football understand you are measured by who you actually beat…not just win totals.

For starters, there are more games played now and the game has changed dramatically from the past. Comparing skill position players from the Hayden era to ferentz, especially 2010 and beyond Ferentz is a joke. Most of the qb’s you listed may have been decent at iowa, but nationally, give me a...

Lol. Mr. Davis’s situation was eerily similar to kirk right now. Couldn’t recruit, finding it hard to get assistants, conference got better and he wasn’t keeping top talent home. Non conference schedules were awful. I’m not a big fran guy but he’s been at least the equivalent of Mr. Davis his last...

That’s a defeatist way of looking at things.

I’ve stated my position routinely. He has assembled a tremendous defensive staff. They recruit tough, blue collar guys and overachieve routinely defensively. There’s a lot of pride there and they feed off it in everything they do. When they play a top 10-15 team, the defense gets exposed for...

Agree. Definitely agree

Offensive line has been awful for several years. Talent at WR is at an all time low. Can’t get open and absolutely can’t catch. Qb talent and development very low. And worse than all of it is kirk’s oversight and management of the situation. No foresight and incredibly slow reacting. He’s always...

You aren’t getting it

He’d be run out of the league after the very first two minute drill. Remember the bronco coach a year ago? All his ineptitude? That’s kirk trying to coach an NFL team in a league where nearly every game comes down to that

The only idiot is you and others that play the woe is iowa card like kirk and continually give him a pass for the ineptitude he has against anyone outside the tremendously overrated b10west

Play was blown up by a low snap. Was supposed to be thrown to the back in motion on bottom of screen that was wide open

You are giving Ferentz credit for developing beathard? Lol

I hear you, but Iowa isn’t really interested in “competing” beyond being invited to the outback bowl. They aren’t paying any buyout unless kirk embarrasses them and I’m not talking about losing the citrus bowl or having a bad offense

You need to grow up buddy

Their respective buyouts say otherwise
