Yep. Hey Northside you there? As our historian can you tell us the last time an Iowa team has given up 8 sacks in a game? Or was it 9?

Yes. Part of the master plan. Kirk hired an OC with ZERO experience who was a former offensive line coach, and an offensive line coach with ZERO experience who was a former OC. It's laughable really until you realize that is how NEPOTISM works and then it is no longer funny. It really pisses me...

There is so much truth to this. Unfortunately.

There had to be dozens, or at least a couple of dozen for crying out loud, who were more qualified to be offensive coordinator at the University of Ferentz, I mean IOWA. It's kind of joke really. If I was a player busting my balls at this level I would feel a little pissed quite frankly to be...

O Line coach > O Line coach/Run game coordinator > Offensive coordinator > Head Coach. The clan is fat and happy. The only question remaining is how many of the clan will also be on staff someday?

But it cuts deeper than this. Kirk held onto Derp waaay tooo long. If you agree with this sentiment then you have to ask yourself why? My answer. Because Kirk knew Jr wasn't ready yet for the OC gig but that was the next logical step toward Head Coach at the University of IOWA. Finally, if you...

Ok. THIS belongs in the Earl Hall of Fame.

Damn. Look at those spinners. Whose tackle box did she raid?

Agree.

Did he give up or was it a damn good jersey grab by the db?

And the lack of TE contribution will make it harder and harder to score points as we get deeper into conference play imo.

I thought aside from the crossing stuff the route running was really poor down the field. But again that is coaching. Correct? Is Nico our best route runner?

That is why him breaking Chuck's TD record might be the most insignificant and irrelevant, dare I say undeserving, accomplishment ever. Chuck was magical and a true gamer. Nate just isn't close. People will remember the OSU victory but what else?

Whaaaat?! When did they move it to the Roadhouse?

Do you recall the 3rd and 9 where Stanley immediately threw it to the line of scrimmage to Sargent? who was covered by the corner and also a safety right there. No blockers in sight. No gain. That reminded me of Derp.

Loud? Are you serious?

But he fits the bill of the big, unathletic, immobile pocket passer that Kirk adores. Cuz that is how they rolled in the '70's. ;)

Then get a qb in there that can "see" that. Coaching.

All of this. I was scratching my head especially re no up tempo. God he made it too easy for their defense. Probably would have helped Stanley too. Maddening. THIS is so KF. Play em straight up. Think about this. Kirk acknowledges we are a developmental program, i.e. we aren't as talented as...

You are correct. Emotion doesn't necessarily equate to good coaching. My guess is he would motivate guys and they might like his intensity when they feel he has their backs but the same intensity gets old if you aren't winning. Don't get me wrong. I have made it very clear I am not a fan of...
