Anyone else about done with KF?

Well substitue Iowa for just about every other team name in the nation, and you'd have a whine fest....

Same ole, same ole....they wont like the new coach either. Anything else to add...

Hey dude I have a daughter at Central Missouri. GO MULES!!

Although this wasn't the kicker that made me want him to leave, I none the less am ready for change and would of really liked to see him go. I would to give an entirely new young staff a chance to take us to the NC or at least put together a string of conf championships. We are a better program than Wisky and yet we can't even match what they are doing is a failure in my eyes. Ferentz is a great guy but he just hasn't been able to get us there so its time for someone else to try. Let's just part on good terms.

Here's what's as evident as the nose on anyone's face:

1. The trajectory of the program closely mimics Hayden Fry and boys.

2. Team was terrible when KF got here. 3 Years later Orange Bowl...about 3 years after Hayden got here Rose Bowl.

3. Many years of stellar success. Coaches begin to leave for other coaching jobs.

4. Recruiting begins to slip because the guys being promoted within are not as good at coaching or recruiting as the guys that left. And we know Hayden and Kirk can't or won't fire guys despite subpar performances because it's like they have TENURE.

5. Coaching staff reaches into the JUCO ranks and now CANADA to find talent and fill holes because they can't close the deal within the continental 48.

6. 6-6, 5-7 or 7-5 records ensue until we lose yet again to Minnesota by 40 in an embarrassing finale to Hayden's career...which will happen to Kirk oh wait it already did we lost again to basically a winless Minnesota team.

7. Finally, it becomes clear even to the die hard coach backers that this can't go on.

Folks we are in stage 5 of the ebb and flow of the Iowa program or maybe 6. I'd give it 3 more years before we have a full blown disaster on our hands unless KF makes some changes.

Agreed 100 percent. I think that is why people all want KF to make changes while he still can.

"The cherry on the cake"?

I think he meant, "the frosting on the cherry".
