Where are the replacements for Kennedy and White?

[Knight78]

For those of you who would like David Raih, we probably won't make an announcement about him until after the Packers season is over... and it will last at least one more week.

 

[ohhawk]

So really Iowa can potentially play the same ball game as ISU if they choose. The possibility exists that they simply have no news to present on the hiring front. I would think they would use any announcement to their advantage all considered if they could.

Brian wasn't hired, he was promoted. There is no HR stipulation for internal promotions....

Working from this logic why can't Kirk promote him to Co-headcoach? I don't see anything preventing Kirk from doing that and then staying home 6 days a weak and hanging with the wife while Brian becomes the defacto HC . . . with Kirk just being a figurehead who pulls down approx. 5 million per year (I'm sure with perks and bonuses that number is low)

Now I'm not saying he will do that, I'm just pointing out that if your comment is true it just reinforces there are no checks and balances. And what's worse, nobody who matters has a problem with that.

As I've stated before. We now have a Joe Paterno situation at Iowa. Joe Pa was a decent person . . . that is until he was given absolute power. And what does absolute power do to ALL men? It corrupts them.

Are you seriously trying to compare what happened at Penn State to Kirk at Iowa?

Unfortunately, yes I think he is.

 

[HuckFinn]

Josh, you need to read your posts a couple of times befote you hit "post." Then two deep breaths, stretch, and go to "edit" then delete. I am saying please and thank you...

 

[thetrza]

Really unfair to Penn State and their fans to compare them to KF and BF.

Yes. And dean said that in his post

Yes, but take note. JB only makes sense when he's trying to be funny. When he's trying to be serious then you get this stuff.

Nothing but nasty coming out of your PC bud. You outghta consider hanging it up or moving on.

Saw today that Minnesota's former WR Coach is now following most of the Iowa staff on twitter. Brian Anderson, looks like he was with Jerry Kill at all of his previous coaching spots as well. I believe I read that he had been recruiting the Georgia area as well.

If true, I like the pickup. Minnesota's run game was pretty strong under him, and while they didn't dominate games, KJ Maye and Drew Wolitarsky were pretty solid receivers that developed under him.

Yep, he is either the new WR or RB coach.

 

[NationwideHawk]

Well.....now that guy has unfollowed all of the Iowa staff members that he WAS following just earlier today.

The plot thickens.....

 

[thetrza]

I quit following most of the HawkeyeNation staff writers on twitter, but then I followed them but put them on MUTE so I can't see their tweets. So I can definitely see where this guy is coming from.

Good point.

Not only did he unfollow the Iowa staff, but former Minnesota DC Jay Sawvel looks to be taking over as DC of Wake Forest.....I'm wondering if Brian is now Wake bound?

Be at rest...an "insider" posted on here that KF ALWAYS does what is correct, moral, and fair.

 

[NCHawker]

It is a 2 pronged process.

1 - put the word out among the coaching world, look for recommendations and interview them and they interview Iowa.

2 - Post a job publicly, review applicants (including those in #1), see if there is anyone there they want to talk to. Interview them.

Most likely the final 2 candidates for each job come from #1.

You have to be thorough in hiring. Bad hires are expensive in many ways.

You're saying this is the protocol that was followed when they hired the new Offensive Coordinator?
