Wednesday Presser Predictions

[pekurhawk]

I predict KF will announce his intention to recruit heavily in the Cedar County area

 

[brhawks18]

Don't know what he'll say or if he'll announce staff changes, but he'll sound like a politician doing it.

 

[lightning1]

Since he has never said it, and never will, I'd like someone to put the words in his mouth for him and ask the following...."Coach, is a National Championship a goal of yours, and do you think that can be obtained using your current methodology of recruiting?" Or ask him if he thinks a National Championship can be won at Iowa? Since that would be sidestepped, just ask him "Coach, why does your recruiting suck....can you explain how you can compete for Big 10 Championships when you are 12th out of 13th in recruiting?

I would like to see this question asked and answered as well. Although, I would prefer it worded accordingly.
"Kirk, do you feel it's possible to win a NC at Iowa?" Followed up by "Do you think we have the talent on the roster to accomplish that goal?" Followed by "If not, why not?"

What if the presser is from Gary Barta saying both Ferentz and GD are both resigning??

 

[NCHawker]

Since baffling has been the word to describe 2014-2015 - I'll throw this one out there....

KF says he's going to step down and PHil Parker will assume HC role on an interim basis while they search for the next head coach. However KF remains on in an advisory role to preserve the momentum and culture.

In lieu of paying out the millions on KFs contract, they use that money to fund higher salaries for assistant coaches - particularly OC's.

we're all baffled once again

 

[Caddy]

Unless he announces his retirement then it doesn't matter what changes or announcements he makes because nothing will change. He is the problem.

 

[nationalchamps]

White gone. Kennedy gone. Recruiting coordinator gone.

 

[ibahawkeye]

Kirk announces offers to Everett Golson, Kenny Hill, & Braxton Miller. We'll take 1 or all 3.

 

[trj]

I don't expect anything significant to come out of the Wednesday press conference. I think Davis stays and Ferentz gives him more control of the offense. I'm not sure if that's good or bad. I think had JR decided to quit football or transfer the rumor mill would have churned that out by now.

Mostly I think Barta asked KF to do something to help recover fan support and therefore you have this weird press conference. I think he'll say stuff like how 2014 was unacceptable to everyone involved and blah blah blah.

^^^^Pretty much this.....PR isn't exactly a strength of the Iowa Athletic Dept.

 

[DJL]

Kirk announces offers to Everett Golson, Kenny Hill, & Braxton Miller. We'll take 1 or all 3.

And they will all 3 be backup linebackers who see some special teams action and maybe get on the field on 3rd downs.

Would you feel comfortable with Barta making the next hire? He missed on Lick and possibly missed on Fran.

They gave up 200 rushing yards to Gordon, and well over 250 total. In what universe is that a "great" defensive effort?

So they missed on one play.... ONE PLAY where Gordon goes off for 88 yards. I'd say that's a pretty good effort against a guy who averaged 185 yards per game. We also held the Wisky offense to 405 yards, but they averaged 469 yards per game (521 yards against Auburn). And we got 412 yards against them.

As everyone here makes fun of Kirk (and a lot of coaches) for saying one play can make or break a game... what happens if we don't miss the tackle near the line of scrimmage on that Gordon 88 yard run? (We held them to a field goal after that run) What happens if we force them to methodically go down the field and take up a lot of time? We only lost by 2 points.

White gone. Kennedy gone. Recruiting coordinator gone.

The recruiting coordinator has been on the job for a whopping 6 months now.

This is so sad and pathetic. He ran for MORE THAN HIS AVERAGE against us. Get a clue.

What if Giselle makes an appearance and announces that she's leaving Tom Brady for me?

......and the he put the crack pipe down

 

[clim]

I've been a Kirk supporter for years but I hope this isn't a dud again. Need some open and honest stuff from Kirk and need to see change or I'm done

 

[HawkMD2007]

Just what time is the presser? Need to make sure I don't miss it.

3:00. I suggest a mid-morning nap, then a light snack to keep your blood sugar up. KF droning is a better sleep aid than leftover turkey on Black Friday.

 

[bucksnducks]

Kirk and GD are gone - I hope
