Easiest recruit Iowa will ever have
- Thread starter Seth53
- Start date
I am guessing you were not in school with diaco. I am not sure Bobby has learned how to spell Iowa yet.
Good guy but if you want a head coach to be presentable in public bobby is not your guy.

2013 - 1995 = 18 years. Just Sayn again....
What are you trying to say. There is a reason he wasn't offered anything this year.

You know the reason(s) for sure, or, is that just conjecture?

Watched a few Youtube videos. Diaco doesn't have to be an instructor at the writer's workshop. He needs to think and work like a football coach. And he sounds like a damn good one...with some passion.
I'll take a guy who sounds a little like a jock...but is a passionate winner. We've had Mr. Politically Correct, "make-the-the-administrators-happy guy".

Diaco is at a Championship level program and he won the Broyles award. (interestingly enough, a lot like Stoops...who we let get away).

Which begs the question...what will the going salary price be for a new HC at Iowa in 2013 vs 1-2-3-4 years from now? And wouldn't the $ saved by hiring a new HC sooner come into play in the overall buyout cost? (ie. if we were to pay a new HC $2M over the next 6 years = a savings of $12M vs the approx buyout of $20M means the actual cost of a buyout then becomes only $8M) Just thinking out loud in hypothetical #'s, but that doesn't make the reality of a switch so prohibitable.

It is obvious to me that our coaching staff simply don't get it. The Hawkeyes could have just went old school and ran it right at N. Illini all game and ESPECIALLY to end the game.

Reminds me of the saying that a team takes on the personality of the head coach. We see a lot of knocks on Iowa - especially when they play ISU that they don't seem to play with a lot of emotion. After 7 losses, I wonder if this team needs an emotional edge. Maybe they need to reestablish that deep fire in the belly that allows them to prevail in close games. After all football is a really emotional game. The senator head coach may be an underlying cause here. You know there's nothing quite like sitting behind your computer from a thousand miles a way and speculating.
