Dude is making high six figures while being one of the worst at his profession the country (in a profession that has more performance transparency than most) with the cover of is old man. I feel zero bad for him
BF contract amended
- Thread starter Chishawk1425
- Start date
Christ. Just when you thought that Gary Barta couldn't embarrass everyone more...
It just doesn't make any goddamn sense. If Brian Ferentz isn't doing a good job you fire him. If he's doing great, then give him a raise and extension! WTF is this? A choose your own adventure book that probably means we go into the two tomato can games and try to score 60? With a side of embarrassing scoreboard watching this season?
What an abomination.

All that embarrassment. For fifty grand (maybe) and the privilege of having Brian Ferentz retained for another year...
Don't be stupid. We're not scoring 70 points on anybody.....
I got a real good laugh out of the “choose your own adventure book.”
Good for you, since at least 10 people asked the same question about the D points counting toward the total. Do people even read through the thread? Kind of makes you wonder about even posting stuff.....
So, are those 25 points all on the offense or does Tommy Boy get credited when the defense or special teams score?
Well good news for some in this fanbase, we're not going 7-6 next year even if we come close to averaging 25 ppg.......
I guess we'll just have to bear the already-wasted 2023 season to get to actual change going into 2024.
Unfortunate but that's all we can do right now short of physical violence towards certain people in charge........
So, in addition to a scoring defense, KF invested in a little insurance for the boy in the form of Cade McNamara.
A pay cut in coaching is stupid. You either win or it’s the door. Period.

What part of last year makes you or anyone think they can got dam run the score up on anyone? Use your brain.
Oh looks like S. Mandell does. 😆 🤣 😂 😹
Iowa getting crucified for this sham, by Iowa fans and by national media. Deservedly so. Barta and Kirk are an embarrassment.
I like the 6 and 6 record plus a total scrub in a bowl game and Tommy Boy wins. Home games W.M. Utah St, Purdue, Rutgers, At N.W. back home to Minny Iillinois, and MSU. Its a waste if they dont win six of those. Then they play Nebby, Wisconsin, ISU on the road. One win makes7.I exspect 9 wins minimum. Then he gets a two year contract just in time to get his ass kicked with the 24 schedule. Gary and Kirk are really sticking their necks out on this one.
Did they think the media wasn't going to get ahold of this? They would have been better off just doing the pay cut and a 1 year contract.
That would have saved face a little.... By somewhat showing that things need to be improved this year....
By putting a weak a$$ goal of 7 wins and 25 points you have tipped your hand that you accept mediocrity from team nepotism.
Any fans out there think that BF should still be the OC after next year if we just barely hit those LOFTY goals? 7-6 and 25 points sound like lots of fun. NOT
IDIOTS

Iowa Hawkeye football has officially became a national joke. If this was any other school, I’d be laughing my ass off at the pure ridiculousness and stupidity of this all
It is because of crap like this that I want The Three Stooges fired. That bridge has been burnt.
Bob Stoops never would have dreamed of pulling this shit. He respects the tigerhawk he wore so proudly.... unlike the UConn turd
Oh there are plenty of them around. They'll just find a new group of excuses to avoid placing any direct blame on KF or BF. We had some bad weather we were up against, guys didn't fully grasp the offense yet, Brian had a really painful bunyon that he was coaching through, etc.
Sure loss? In '23, I don't count any sure losses.
It's probable that the PSU game will likely be quite a tussle. Every other game on the schedule looks winnable. ISU game will be a challenge too.
I guess we can be happy that we get some entertainment from the Hawkeye Offense in the off-season with news like this.
I enjoyed a tweet where someone said "we should have dropped his pay to 450k.... What's he going to do...not accept?"

Pretty much what I said.
Iowa will be a huge underdog vs PSU. At this point, the remaining eleven are not daunting.
Only seven wins will be a major letdown
One national guy tweeted that if he doesn't meet the objectives, then his contract will terminate in June 2024.
The way I interpreted that is if BF doesn't get to 7 wins AND we don't score more than 25 team points per game, then his contract will be terminated. Meaning if the team doesn't average 25 peg but wins 7 or more games, then a new contract could be negotiated. I hope I'm wrong with how I interpreted the comments, but at this point I would believe anything that incompetent Barta dreams up.

I think it means that we AUTOMATICALLY renew our amazing OC's contact if he hits these HUGE and AMAZING goals of 25points and 7 wins.
If he fails to hit those goals......
He'll be renewed with a different contact, cause BF isn't going anywhere until KF goes. Buckle up.
Barta the Ferentz family lapdog has definitely left him, KF, and BF plenty of "outs" if Brian fails to achieve the new goals. I don't think anywhere it explicitly says he will not be coaching at Iowa. I agree with you, they'll dream something else up.
The more I watch KF's machinations, the less respect I have for him. Actually, there isn't any respect left. I feel like a MAGAt who wakes up to realize he was conned all along.
Agree. The goal posts will be moved and we will hear excuses as to why he should be retained….weather, injuries, etc. “We can’t fully judge the offense from this year so we will try again next season.” I can already hear it. Sad. Time for KF, BF, and GB to GTFO.
This amended contract puts Phil Parker in a real quandary. To score or not to score; that is the question!
Does this mean we, the fans are rooting for about 10 wins and 23 points per game. We will actually be rooting against our team late in the season?? Also, what happens if we win more than 7 games and not get to the 25 points pg? No bonus dollars but still a new lifetime contract as long as dad is head coach?
Also if the win at a bowl game counts does that also count for or against the 25 ppg?

Personally, I'm rooting for Phil Parker's defense to out-score the Iowa offense in every game and thereby embarrass (but not humble*) KF and his baby boy dynasty.

Davis must be laughing. His poor offense got him fired and we would have won the west using his this year
Champ game 2 yrs ago, and 1 game away last yr with 8-12 starters injured...can't get more dmb then u!
