You don’t have a clue. I’ve listed their games against top 20 opponents repeatedly in here and the defense gets exposed in nearly every case

You really aren’t getting it. This wasn’t just not having a qb. That’s just the start. It’s a combination of a ton of things led by complete and total ineptitude from the coaches

He’s fine because he schedules four non conference wins and never leaves iowa. Then he just needs to win 2-3 more in the lowly b10w which he’s done repeatedly. Then get blasted in a b10 negotiated bowl

U of I thinks he’s Ohtani

If you think he’s the reason why Iowa doesn’t have an offense….

You are an idiot of epic proportions. I’ve forgotten more Iowa football than you’ll ever know

Disagree. Ferentz never changes. There is a major talent discrepancy from a skill position standpoint and he’ll never, ever change

1. I said all season, Iowa defense is good, but let’s see them play somebody. Then…not so good…see penn st game 2. How the hell do you have 6 weeks & run this qb back out there?

Asking a former center to develop qb’s never made any sense to most anyone that knows anything about football…

The gist of my thought remains. 1. Ferentz has nearly always been & will continue to be his ow OC 2. Ferentz isn’t going to seriously consider anyone outside his “circle” 3. Does philbin have some pedigree? Yes. But just like Brian, he’s an OL coach by trade…not a qb coach or even a natural OC...

Umm…I didn’t compare Philbin to the other two at all so no idea where that’s coming from. Rose to head coach? He was interim because he had tenure on the staff. Was he a great OL coach? Hell to the yeah. But once again, there’s a reason why he’s rising to the surface here. 1. Kf can’t...

You miss the point. Any lack of success of Philbin would have way more to do with Ferentz and his control tendencies than the retired and recruiting challenged philbin. Quite obviously, there was a day he showed competence in an NFL setting. Whether it was being in the right place at the right...

Doubtful. There is no leverage from philbin’s standpoint outside of going back into retirement. And he’s on record 20 years ago as not having any interest in recruiting so he shares that aspect with kirk. Takeaway, they aren’t the life of the party these days

The elephant in the room is Pat mccaffery can’t play at this level. In fact, the team is an assemblage of role players being asked to start. Fran’s issue from day one has been recruiting. He’s never had guards. Never recruited a real pg, doesn’t get wings that can defend or drive. He’s shown...

It’s also about adjusting and Ferentz won’t do it. Opposition continually loads the box with 8 & 9 men only to see a stubborn ferentz try and run right into it. He won’t adjust & throw on 1st down. He won’t throw the ball down the field. He won’t throw in the middle of the field. Everything is a...

Where have you people been? These realities have been around for a while now. Have you ever spoken to a family member of a D1 scholarship athlete? I’d encourage you to. It’s not remotely what you think. Scholarships are semester to semester. And that includes the non-revenue sports. If a coach...

It’s a classic ho hum & predictable matchup for iowa. Tennessee brings the name of a top program but it’s anything but. They mirror iowa in having a good, but a season in which they came up short in important games. Qb with potential but fell short with the upside. Like iowa, they feast on...

Because he’s the OC

He never changes qb’s but if he does, only after an off season

Exactly. And the coaching doesn’t help
