    Ya, that guy with 40 years experience was in such high demand that he was unemployed. And a guy with one foot in retirement is more interested in maintaining his cash flow than in making waves, a perfect "yes man". Do you have any talent at all, other than name calling?

    Just another situation that needed some management, but KF, instead of stepping up and handling it, let's it blow up in our face. See Willies and a few others.

    We and many, many other fans. For years we have seen an astoundingly underperforming offense. Depending on the year, we have seen it be near the bottom of the conference and even of the nation in most of the key offensive stats: points scored, rushing yardage, # of 3 and outs, short drives...

    Good job! But it's easy for him to basically blow- off one letter like yours. It would be much more difficult for him to blow- off an online petition signed by 20k or 30k fans asking for a new OC. Have you thought about organizing something like that?

    Recruiting?

    The problem is not that it has 40+ million people. It's the outsized % of them that are nuts.

    ESPN list is B.S.

    No. Snyder actually had offenses and that tends to get you mentioned. The huge miss here is Evy and he should have been top 5.

    QB Transfer Portal

    And yes, other schools do use red jerseys at spring games. Not all the time, and like I said, it's often a question of depth. When they don't, those are usually situations where they have QB competitions going on. At practice however, I believe it's a fairly common occurrence - I know I've...

    QB Transfer Portal

    Thank you for making my point. The problem is that not only can we not tell with such limited exposure, neither can the coaches. There is no excuse for the coaches not to have looked at more than one QB in the fall of 2017. They even said it was a virtual tie and they had trepidations about the...

    QB Transfer Portal

    Virtually every team does. Look no further back than last Friday with McCaffery. No claim that it's easy, but it's not that hard and it's critical. It's another example of our terrible risk/reward decision making. Risk: a backup gives up a pick-6 in an early game where we are a 21 point...

    QB Transfer Portal

    Your post has great points, yet is highly contradictory. Yes, decision-making, accuracy under pressure, mobility, vision, leadership,....are all probably more important, at the margin, than arm strength. Yet none of those qualities can be truly evaluated except under real game conditions. But...

    Iowa Offense---6 Points in the Last 48 minutes

    And that same offense cost us the MI, PSU, and WI games this year, several last year and more next year if we don't get it changed. Do you "give a shit" about any of those?

    Who can make the most bad decisions? OC or QB

    Joe Toussaint...Wow! Jon Rothstein (CBS Sports): "Buy Stock Now."

    I'm surprised it took you that long. I beat you by several years. :)

    The higher expectations vs meeting expectations discussion

    If Iowa starts scheduling a few more tougher teams in the non con occasionally and going to the B1G Championship game more than once every nine years, Iowa fans will be satisfied with 9-3 to 11-1 results. Iowa can do it if the staff can recruit better at the skill position and get back to more...
