Should the first call go to Bob Stoops?

Oh, God no. A return to those dark ages would encompass my 60's and 70's.

Ironically, social and ethnic unrest, such as the player boycott in 1968 or 69, helped usher in the last Iowa football dark age.

It’s coming

If KF and BF get fired,, the first offer for head coach should go to Phil Parker

Not sure I agree with that. Truthfully, I didn't watch the game n now won't watch the replay. I was on the road at 3 o'clock. Had a shot to catch the first half-hour, but the wisdom of the B1G network decided that endless replays of the B1G Show weren't enough, and ignored the start of the Iowa game. Did we tackle better than the Purdue game? Tell me the truth.

If you don’t know then that is pretty telling about how hot he is.

You knew much about a guy named Hayden before he showed up at Iowa?

I think the game was on ESPN, chief.

First, I was a kid so that’s a stupid take.

Second, did Hayden get hired from a power 5 program where he would be better known?

Third, didn’t the what’s-his-name brother of Bob Stoops PLAY at Iowa?

My info said B1G Ten network. I guess it's irrelevant now.

Just to throw a name out there, um, Urban Meyer?

Lol...

Buy out Kurt and 10 assistants for millions right after you just cut a bunch of programs because of financial reasons, then pay a guy like Urban Meyer (who wouldn't take the job anyway) three times what Ferentz made because that's what the market rate would be, all right in the middle of covid where you have zero ticket revenue and declining donations...

Are you on the nitrous today or what?

Need I point out, the flow of information in 1979 was a lot different than 2020. That said, people in Texas sure knew who Hayden was.

There is no way he's gone after an abbreviated season like this one.

Losses piling. Players leaving. Perceived racism (whether real of not). Of course, recruiting is dog eat dog, and I am sure all other schools will play the race card against us. Our real only play is to part from KF. And, as article states, can prolly save on the 20 mill buyout as well. Former Hawks the Stoops boys and Bielema would be great starting points in trying to replace
