100% What better reason is there to be moving on then that? I wish I knew what players think. Or better yet the assistants that have been with him forever. If there's slippage going on or a change in how he's been they'd see it.
Starting To Also Think It’s Time

Do most people on here want an entirely new coaching staff or just move an assistant into the head coaching job and maintain the program as it is with a few tweeks to the system?
All new would mean a major defection for the roster and recruits, but could also bring in something completely refreshing. But could also turn us into what Wisconsin is dealing with.
Or stay the course and continue with 6 to 9 wins per season with Wallace, Lester or Woods.

I think so to. I think he got his record this season & that might have been his goal. Well, his goal is obviously to win BIG 10 games, but I think he's pretty content now.
When talking about players, he constantly says the same thing ........paraphrase "He's a quality individual. He's a hard worker". This is fine, but he says that every time.

Yep, you can teach positioning and tackling, but the players are the one's who have to tackle.

Phil is done when Kirk is done so the guy who is arguably the most important person on the sidelines is off the table no matter what.
If it's woods I think you see a lot of people stay.
If it's Wallace guys are gonna jump ship, hopefully Goetz is smarter than that.
Lester I think could get some guys to stay but Woods will be gone. He isn't going to stick around for another 20 years as a ST or DC. That's a net negative for Iowa.
I think the replacements should be in order of rank...
1) LeVar Woods...Young, Iowa City guy, one of the best recruiters in the world.
2) Lester...has B1G experience now as well as understanding the NFL world, let him cook and open the playbook once KF takes his foot off his chest.
3) Pat Fitzgerald. His kid is here, he's somewhat young in coaching years, knows the B1G, played in the B1G, I'd love to see what he can do with a better B1G team and NIL.
Seth Wallace is a wet fart in month-old underwear. Scumbag redneck piece of shit ass kissing abuser who apparently has compromising pictures of KF in his safe deposit box.
Anyone other than the 3 guys I mentioned is a roll on a 10,000-sided die.

Lester with PFitz as DC would be my choice

Or FPitz with Lester as OC (and play calling by Lester)

Do you think Lester would stay at OC if Woods were offered the HC job?

Only one way to find out.

Remember this, folks who want a fresh new face and staff...
Scott Frost, Mike Riley, Luke Fickell, and Les Miles said all the right things and had the grandest of plans when they got hired. What they all did was sold lemons to unsuspecting and uneducated administrations and fans who drank every drop of Kool Aid they poured.
There's 10,000 of those fast Eddies for every one success. Careful who you wish for.

I'm really pulling for Woods to get the job, but don't think Beth wants to take a chance with this next hire. Whoever it is, there'll be some major changes coming either way.

She'd be taking much less of a chance hiring him than anyone else.
If there's anything one should know from college football in the last 15 years it's that a HC's previous record does NOT equal success at his next school. There are many, MANY more coaches who've failed after getting a new job than continued their success. Give me any name of a guy who has been great and I'll give you 50 who flopped.

So Seth Wallace is out?

There's scenarios that would be potentially positive for all 3 of the aforementioned (Woods, Lester, and Fitz). I wouldn't mind Woods, but I think he would need to ensure some capable coordinators to merit success.
Fitz and Lester have done it and have experience. Does the NW scandal follow Fitz. Recall, Iowa had their go around with the racism and hazing stuff as well. Do they fear hiring Fitz for bad PR or blowback? Lester has had less success but definitely probably has the most well-rounded experience to be a head coach.
It will be interesting to see which way they go when the time comes.
