Well, I wish you would have told me you were an "internet tough guy" at the beginning of our discussion, so I would have known to be more careful about how I communicated with you. Ummm, the comparison is actually pretty close between the two...Fry and Ferentz. Both have stewarded the program well and they have had great teams in similar numbers. It's just a slightly different brand of offensive football and I've enjoyed both to be honest.
Once again, you missed my point...people weren't calling for Hayden's head when he went 6-6 or 7-5 like they do with KF. Why? Because he was great years earlier? or because he resurrected the program from the dead in 1980? I'm saying it's a different culture today...the Iowa fan of today has no recollection of the road through the 70s. I just don't understand this segment of the fan base that is so negative on KF. His teams are physical...no one pushes them around (or rarely)...and they compete through the whistle on every play. Granted our bowl experiences haven't been great lately...but I think he's putting together a really good run over the next few years. There are very few holes in the team next year, except (WR & LB) and we have young talent there.
