Very sadly, a normal football fan has to admit this is looking like it's true. Who'd want to be an OC at a power 5 school and have the head coach who's philosophy is archaic and who controls your every move?

This is a correct statement. They are not turning the OC position down. They are turning down KF and his offensive philosophy.

Are you surprised Alabama already has an agreement for a new coach. The OC job at Iowa is not a premium job at this point. What relevant OC would take this role while KF is the head coach?

Who the frick said push out defensive players? Get rid of the dead wood from the offense and bring in better talent. In other words, in their year end exit interview let some people know they need to go into the transfer portal. It's not that difficult a concept. Sure, feelings may get hurt...

That's part of it. But it's recruiting better players as well. See the recruiting coordinator for that. Oh yea, Kirk Ferentz's son-in-law is in that role. We know how relatives of KF on Iowa's staff have worked out don't we?

What about the offense? Need more and better WR's, better OL. The defense is fine. The offense is not.

I'll answer your last sentence. See below. Kirk Ferentz is the head coach and controls the offense Iowa runs no matter who the OC is.

And approximately 7 million other reasons.

You are correct about the son in law. Nepotism is still alive and well within the Iowa football program.

Just hire a friggin OC and get it over with Ferentz. Those with common sense know you're not looking for a home run hire, but someone who'll do as you say.

But Iowa has Deacon Hill. The Hawks CANNOT do better.

For the heck of it I looked at the previous 10 year win/loss records before Fry and the 10 years before Ferentz. 10 years before Fry Iowa was 21-72 10 years before Ferentz Iowa was 66-49 My point is Fry took over a dumpster fire of program and brought it to life. Ferentz didn't inherit near...

That may qualify as the most accurate post of 2024 so far!

The Missouri Tigers played very good defense and offense this year. It is indeed possible to do as you stated. But as you also said, you're not sure if KF believes this. By the results of the past 25 years, that belief is pretty much warranted.

My man, KF isn't changing after 25 years of the same ole conservative offense.

Exactly. It's not who you fire. It's who you hire to replace the one fired. Although the jury is still out, Beth Goetz may very well be the best AD at Iowa since Bump Elliott.

What you said is sad but oh so true.

Shoot oldhawk, being called an idiot buy those still supporting KF on this fan forum is kind of an honor at this point. KF can keep telling people to take a step back and remember Iowa won 10 games, but, he should also mention Iowa lost 4 games and was manhandled by the only 3 ranked teams...

There are some KF butt kissers on this board whose heads would explode if they listen to this and read the comments.

Ouch. If you ignored me, why are you posting about me from Teddy's post? Never mind. Your location tells me all I need to know.
