Re: Kirk Ferentz Press Conference Quotes as he speaks...

Running game

It's OK. It bailed us out two weeks ago. We can improve. Damon is still a young player and still inconsistent up front where we can do better. That is on list this week, be more proficient as we move forward

Two runs on first and goal from three, want OL to hang hat on?

We felt good about those plays. We got the score and it was pulled back. There is an opportunity wit ball inside five and we can't knock it in there. That is one more example of if you are not getting TD's there in a tight game and those are three that bit us

Games like this, alst week and v Minnesota, have emotions...how much do you play up emotion in game prep leading up to it and then getting rid of it

From our standpoint, we have to be focused on improving...a lot to get better at this week in all regards...other part is realization...Coach Saban addressed this last week..if you are not careful, easy to think things..lot of misconceptions..when you play compeititive sports, these games are competitive. What we have seen UNI do in two games, we will have eto be at our best preparation, intensity however you want to describe it have to be ready to play to win. cant predict opponent but history says it will be tough

Hitchens:

he is coming along...confident in Kirksey and Morris and HItch is newer..more like a lot of players haven't played a lot but potential to be good player. Making progress. Second half he played more decisive...they ran the same play and he played it well second time...Morris is seeing things faster, but he has played a lot. Challenge is for Hitch to get up there profieciency of others..

Fumbles hurt RB time, drops WR?

At some point. Fine line. You dont want guys paralyzed that if they drop it they are out of the game. Fine line. Have to work through it. We have caught ball.....you knew my feelings in spring. Improve in august now has to improve on game field.

End of presser

At least he isn't cracking jokes about not getting any touchdowns.

 

[SheagleHawk]

Typical. All softballs.

 

[JayHawki]

Ugh..

 

[Hawkfromnorwalk]

At least Sleeper is back. Lord knows we can always use more white safeties.

 

[UIHawkGrad]

Typical internet tough guy that would ask the really tough questions if only they would let him into the press conferences!

 

[HawkeyeHypnosis]

Collin Sleeper is back? Forgot about the suspension.

The real tough questions come from the fans who call in on Wednesday nights.

I dont understand the point of interviewing KF. Its not like any info is shared.


Snort .....chuckle ....I wouldnt know anything about that.

I dont read the paper.

I dont know you guys tell me.

So and so is a great football team and we are really gonna have our work cut out for us.

Haha! Typical dbag response from a bootlicker who feels KF shouldn't be subjected to any difficult questions.

Even if somebody wanted to you have to get past the show producer first.

Not sure why I keep reading these threads. I feel for JDM and others who have to attend them knowing KF isn't going to say anything noteworthy.

Careful. You're treading dangerously close to being labeled an "internet tough guy" by UIHawkGrad.

What in the world is it that you guys want KF to say? What questions would you ask? Come on, 'fess up! What questions? I keep hearing this crap about Fort Kinnick and that the press pitches softballs, and that KF never really levels with the press. I want specifics. Maybe he is telling the truth and there is little more to tell you. I absolutely DO NOT want him calling out players, coaches, officials in the media. Classless. What the h... do you mean, "nothing noteworthy." What a cop out!

Go watch the pressers from the bowl games from last year and then get back to me. Watch the questions about who got sent home who got in troulble and see how ****** Kirk got.

Jon, you forgot your sarcasm font for this post. If you listen to Ferentz' call-in show, it is primarily pat-Kirk-on-the-back praise with the added humor of Mert calling in and flirting with Dolph and Tommy, who really is the only critical caller. And most often, he doesn't have a clue as to what he's talking about.

"Coach, it has been 2 games now and you have not thrown the ball down field at all, is that part of the strategy or is QB play keeping you from trying that?

"Vandenberg didn't look particularly comfortable, did you ever consider putting in Rudock to see what he could do? In the past, it doesn't seem that you have trusted your backup QB enough to put them in and let them see what they can do in that situation. Is that due to a lack of preparing more than one QB to be ready for game duty, or just a lack of trust by the coaches?"

I could go on all day.
