I told a friend that Hill would regress as do most QB's at Iowa when they become a starter. It has although I didn't think it would happen in the first quarter of the first game he started, but here we are.
So happy the game is only on Peacock. Not many people will be watching and that's a good thing.
The game of football is set back about 50 years with this offense.
Nice accomplishment as a team, but still there's no excuse for the hawks dreadful offense in the same time frame. The defense is the majority reason Iowa's won at least 8 games a year.
An average offenses gives Iowa 9 to 10 wins per year. That happens and fans expectation increase. I truly...
Overall Iowa fans did not travel well to this game. Not far enough south for warmer weather and watching an inept offense for 12 regular season games is not a good combo.
If you've watched Iowa football long enough, you know QB's tend to look worse each year they're in the program. Stats may be a bit better, but they mostly don't pass the eye test with each additional year in the program.
Not much talk about the OL coach, but the door can't hit him the ass soon enough.
Iowa defense and special team coaches develop players and they play at a high level. The offensive coaches, I don't even know what they do good.
I hope I am one million percent wrong, but I predict KF will not change squat in the off-season on the offensive side of things.
Barta is not the boss as he says he is, at least over the football program. KF runs the show in Iowa City.
So he said he did the best he could with what he had.
1. Sounds like he's calling out the players. That's bush league.
2. Aren't you and your brother-in-law two of the coaches that recruit said players?
Iowa, with his dad as head coach, is the only power 5 school he could get hired as the...
I would think more offensive players will transfer, but who knows. Don't think we'll see any of the starting O-lineman go, unless it's to a D-2 or D-3 school. Certainly they won't go to another D-1 school as they're unfortunately not talented enough at this time.
Oh yeah, the new QB is a definite upgrade over their top 2 guys, but it still won't matter. The modern game of football has been passing KF by for years. And it's finally hit the breaking point.
Take Phil Parker away and this is a solid 4-8 team annually at best.
