Barta's status

Since he has made the leader of the football coaching staff bulletproof until close to 2018, what does his contract look like? We're stuck with KF and his staff so how long does Barta last if this show continues to go on? Does Barta demand changes to the staff? Will KF comply when in reality he doesn't have to? We can't fire him.

The Lickliter hire was a disaster but if we continue to have years with no post season bowls @ $4 million per year and no way out of the contract that could be his undoing as an administrator. How does Barta get out of this hole, only by pink slip?
 
Barta is expected to make $485,357.64 fr 2012. Roughly 361,000 in salary and roughly 15,000 in travel expenses. I wouldn't mind showing GB the door (he can help carry GDGD bags)...but it's Iowa...GB likely isn't going anywhere either.
 
Garta clearly conspired with Delaney to announce conference expansion to bury the Gray Peter scandal. Notice how all of the threads on the topic are now buried, and Frodo's efforts to uncover the truth have stalled.
 
I wouldn't be so sure about that. Just saying.

quit staring at my profile! :D

Excellent! You have uncovered another conspiracy! Just when I thought it was all KF's fault. Or JVB's.
 
Well Delaney bringing in MARYLAND is a good distraction WTH would bring in Maryland over Mizzou! Nice job Delaney as I posted alot over the summer Mike Slive and the other commissioners are awake while Delaney fiddles as the BIG 10 as a brand slowly erodes.
 
I was shocked. Really shocked. Slightly disturbed actually. What I mean is more slightly disturbed than usual.
 
i would like to see the posters in this thread go visit with the all the coaches on campus and ask them if they appreciate gary's work at iowa.

i would also like to see a list of reasonable candidates to replace him since, you know, everyone wants to work at iowa as shown by the last list of AD candidates.

Heck, even the coaches not on campus send their appreciation. Just ask Lickliter the next time he stops by the U of I payroll office for his check.

Did you watch the 60 minutes piece this last Sunday about the business of college football? I would highly recommend it, could be a little depressing as to the state of college athletics but still a good piece nonetheless.

As we all know football drives the athletic department revenues if not the revenues and charitable giving for the entire university. Thus the entire university is going to suffer due to BAD contract terms that have been afforded KF. I thought that this university would have learned something from the Steve Alford debacle, and he left on his own!! We're just now starting to dig out of that hole.

Two scenarios that almost always never work out are 'Coach in waiting' and 'Lifetime contracts'.

In this day and age, Ferentz' contract is at best reckless and at worst a fireable of offense.
