    Column: Iowa Football in Strange Place

    Rob, What do you suggest? Ignore or tear the contract up that Bf and KF agreed to? If they win 7 games and Iowa averaged 25 points a game you can darn well bet the Ferentz's would demand the terms for BF be met with a contract extension and raise. So if the contract terms are not met, the...

    How do the next 4 games go?

    At best watching teams the past 2 or 3 weeks, it feels like the Hawks will go 2-2. 1-3 or 0-4 is entirely possible because of the ineptitude on offense.

    No Coaches will be Available on Bye

    In this day and time, there's one positive and obvious observation about Iowa having a bye week this Saturday. We won't have to watch the most inept offense in college football and will not have to listen to every national pundit laugh at the worst and most embarrassing offense of all power 5...

    It’s going to get much worse

    All of you who want a new OC and BF moved to the o-line, keep forgetting or refuse to admit one thing. KF is in charge as the offense follows his philosophy. Why would some high flying new OC want to come to Iowa and run it up the middle 2/3 of the time?

    Labas

    Utah just played their 3rd string QB at USC and won the game. For a program the staff calls developmental, Iowa cannot develop a QB,. But they can make them look much worse than when they joined the team.

    Iowa-Minnesota Football Takeaways

    Great summary. I'll add to the misery, as I'm not sure I've read on this board a stat from last weeks Wisconsin game. I believe Iowa did NOT run one offensive play in Wisconsin territory the entire game.

    Questionable Call

    Ok, the call sucked and cost Iowa the lead and likely the win. But what really lost the game for Iowa was the offensive coaches, and I apologize to the word coaches, total lack of being qualified to coach the offense. Who recruits and develops the QB's? The coaches. What more needs to be said?

    Really good game by Brian Ferentz

    Maybe KF retires if Brian's contract is not renewed. After all, the B1G will only get more difficult next year. Personally, if Iowa keeps winning this year, THANK YOU DEFENSE AND SPECIAL TEAMS, this may be a good time for KF to say I've had a great run and now it's time to retire and relax.

    Is Kirk right?

    KF has forgotten more about football than most of us will ever know in our lifetime. That's easy to admit. With that said, his offensive philosophy still sucks and the stats bear that out. It's obvious KF's hands are all over the offensive side of the ball. He's very old school but it works...

    Really good game by Brian Ferentz

    Below is what's in the contract. He must meet both or it officially terminates 6-30-2024. For Ferentz to return to his previous two-year rolling contract, the Hawkeyes must reach a mere 25 points per game -- by any means, including defense and special teams -- in 2023. Additionally, the...

    Really good game by Brian Ferentz

    There is a contract in place that stipulates what will happen if contract terms are not met. Does she have the guts to let BF go if he doesn't reach the all the items in the agreement? Was going to use another term instead of guts, but she doesn't have a pair of what I was going to say. If BF...

    DEACON HILL 2-0 AS A STARTER

    Should Deacon receive credit for a tackle, as after he handed the ball to Williams I believe, he tripped him up and Williams went down immediately. Just curious how that shows in the stats line.

    IA WI Score predictions

    I live out of state and do follow another team. But I am an Iowa Hawkeye first. For those of you who are only about the wins in the regular season, good for you. However, I'd like to see Iowa compete in the conference championship game. With each passing year, the possibility of that...

    IA WI Score predictions

    The QB didn't win, defense and special teams did. Iowa's offense is a laughing stock nationally as most people realize the west division and non-conf. schedule for the Hawks is very weak. I love the Hawks and have since the early 70's. But I also love to watch sports that keep up with the...

    IA WI Score predictions

    You're the idiot. Defense and special teams for the most part won the two games he started. Hills stats for his two starts are 12-35 for a completion rate of 34.2%, 147 yards with 1 TD and 1 interception. Rushing 5 attempts for minus 43 yards (All Sacks) QB rating average for his 2 starts...

    How About a MiniGame Thread, Lads

    F Off ass hat! As Dolph and Eddie said post game. Iowa won because of defense, special teams and the offense did just enough and didn't turn the ball over. But KF should be kissing the asses of the DC and special teams coach all the way back to Iowa City. Happy the Hawks won, but change is...

    How About a MiniGame Thread, Lads

    And your stat includes 2 runs for 98 yards. Again, take those 2 runs way and Iowa averages 2 yards a carry which will not win many games.

    How About a MiniGame Thread, Lads

    Yes it is. To the tune of 24 runs for 48 yards. Take away Hill's 2 sacks for -17 yards and the 98 yards on Iowa's two big runs and that's it. A robust 2 yards a carry. Not good. Thankfully Wisconsin is not any better in the first half.

    Deacon Hill QBR

    He USED to is a more accurate description. I was a fan of KF and still am just a little. But when he hired BF as the OC, he started losing my support which doesn't mean squat to him I know. But this is a hard team to watch on Saturday's when the offense is on the field. At this pace there's...

    Deacon Hill QBR

    I never heard of a K-state player getting in trouble. Iowa's had a few. Also, Iowa does not have the highest academic standards in the big ten. And it's still hard to recruit to Manhattan Kansas no matter what.
