Greg Davis as OC?

I'm less than enthusiastic about this.

Me too! We should definitely judge a guy completely off of one year. Even when that year was when the guy was switching from a spread offense to a pro style offense and probably didn't yet have the players recruited and on campus to do so.

Somebody had to pay for the Longhorns poor 2010 season. Davis was that guy apparently. Sorry, but if he was good enough to be the offensive coordinator at Texas for a dozen years I think he's qualified to be the offensive coordinator at Iowa. People should stop whining.

Think like KF does. Think inside the box. (Internal hire.)
 
Ask any Texas fan what they think of Greg Davis. You'll get more hate from them than Iowa fans ever had for KOK.

This would be the one hire that would completely make me mad. I'd take just about anyone else but Greg Davis.

I'd rather take UNI's offensive coordinator who I don't care much for.

I think you are taking an unfair approach here. The guy has had a pretty successful career as an OC. Yes they had a bad season, and he was forced to take the fall and some Texas fans hate him for the one bad year, forgetting that he was part of the coaching staff that won them a NC. At some point, we as fans have to trust KF is going to make the best decision possible.
 
Brown may find himself out of a job if Texas has another year like he just had, Texas fans are worse than ND fans only they have more money and pull in who gets fired and hired

Maybe Greg Davis wasnt the issue as Texas finished the regular season 7-5 and 4-5 in the Big 12 with the best talent in the nation.

When I've watched Texas in recent years (past 2) I didn't think I was seeing the best talent in the nation. Their defense hasn't been very good and they never did replace McCoy with a solid QB. Gilbert and the other McCoy were ok not great. ISU looked to have better running backs than Texas over the past couple years, which should never happen. Their recruits were ranked high, but sometimes you have to wonder if those rankings are inflated just because the kid is from Texas.

Yep, very true. And they were killing him even before the 2010 season.

Here is the Texas site talking about the move: Greg Davis to Iowa?

Man, that sounds like it was coming from HN, but without all the ******** at each other, calling every fifth poster a name, and ragging on and piling on top. OH and btw, they have much better avatars!

Personally, I think the fresh change for Davis could turn out to be renewed enthusiasm for him and very gratuitous for us. I think we scored well. I'm excited and hope this is the real deal.

That thread does not inspire confidence, but it's just fans. Guess we'll find out.....

Davis is terrible and hated by many Texas fans. You can take the KOK situation at Iowa and magnify it 100 times.

Davis turned down Andrew Luck. Luck wanted to go to Texas badly but Davis said he couldn't run his offense.

Do not want.

I told you all.
 
Davis's impact on our offense has been as productive as his influence on gaining some Texas recruits.

The improvement in our offense from first game to second can be termed as digressing.

UNI has us right where they want us.

UNI's defense is no joke either.
