Can he play football or, rather, should he go into politics?

You've mixed up the meaning of philosophy and, for example, mechanics. Norm and Phil had the same defensive philosophy. Make the opponents' offenses go the length of the field to score - counter-punch their offense. Shorten the game by purposely having Iowa's defense on the field for stretches...

So, Iowa is not only a developmental school for players but is one for coaches, too? One could easily argue KF was developed as a coach at Iowa. One also has to look at the path the development takes for player or coach. It's the same type of path. The same offensive and defensive...

I don't follow. What lineup comprises the non-shooting lineup? You mean no JBo? Point I'm making is: putting Carton in at PG is like putting in another JBo at PG.

I believe the verb you used to describe the difference between Norm's and Phil's defense philosophy was tweaked.

:rolleyes:. Does hiring the son change your perspective of KF's coaching evaluation abilities? How about sticking with KOK and Davis for as long as he did?

I wasn't familiar with Carton's game before viewing the clip. I can't find more than one dish from Carton in the whole clip. Have Fran recruit both Carton and Locure and have one be a PG and the other a SG.

So MSU is dirty and dirty?

Meh. Phil followed Norm as DC and I see no difference between the philosophy of the two. Norm had some pass rushers on some of his squads, though. So Phil copies the philosophy of Norm. Where did Norm get his philosophy while a DC at Iowa? I say Phil is a yes man.

Why 4K? How many 4K TV shows have you seen lately?

Have you lost your glasses? Where was Iowa's defense in the Rose Bowl? The Outback loss to Florida? Just 'cause Iowa plays most of its games in the B1G West and limits opponents to lower scoring, that doesn't indicate a "seriously impressive" defense. You want a seriously impressive...

So you say. Convenient excuse.

I'm not saying allow the young'uns to not follow rules. I'm saying KF's rules don't translate to impressive seasons. KF's rules don't translate to impressive offenses. KF's rules keeps every game close...on purpose...and KF's rules don't have impressive defenses. KF's rules don't game plan...

8-5 every year...in the B1G West is mediocre. With Iowa's non-stellar non-con schedule. Mediocre.

Some of you guys sure love your mediocrity.

You likey rules? You likey the spiked collar? The whips and stiletto, high-heeled boots? See, I can be provocative, too. I just don't see the point.

His rules don't translate to wins. That's football:).

'Yes men' coaches can easily go to any staff. Problems with 'yes men' coaches occur if the HC doesn't allow differing or independent thinking while the HC's thinking is convoluted...Sometimes the emperor needs to be told he has no clothes and when the emperor constantly walks around without...

Same applicable reply to two posts with different topics on this thread. I like to conserve energy...:cool:

I read the first line of your post and am replying to that. Who cares what the character of Buatti is. That shouldn't influence the character of KF should it? Many on this board are basing KF's coaching talents on his character.
