Dead wrong on classy guy

[rclui57]

The performance of the team this year has been spectacular. It is the result of so many factors starting with the head coach. The players all talk of their commitment to each other and the team, a work that does not have I in it. That too comes from coaching leadership. It is rare when such can be achieved when so many (105) personalities are involved.

It has been an embarrassment to have had so much vitriol posted on this board these past 2-3 years about the coach. So much was really just below any civility. We have had and continue to have good, decent leadership in the football program and we should be thankful for that. Hopefully those who now admit being "jerkoffs" have learned and will be civil in the future.

And as noted above, do not be surprised if KF is named the B1G coach of the year, and also the National coach of the year. He will have many supporters for both.

Yes there were many that doubted the Hawks, they have moved on from last year, long ago....you have not! All I am saying is please just move on....after you get your full dose of crow of course. You know when we were 6-0, 8-0, and then 9-0 I figured you would join the rest of us in enjoying this season, but here we are at 12-0, playing for BigTen title, 5 nice trophies, etc etc. and here you still are, still clamoring about this and that and to then add the fact that you are a complete narcissist in thinking that we should thank you for your vile negativity....as if the coaching staff comes on to the rivals board for their off season professional development is just beyond me...you have been less and less vocal with each passing week (for obvious reasons), but it has been almost 12 months of your crap so forgive me if it is getting just down right old

LOL . you're a trip.

Most of the time when i bring up the past is because some people like you try to rewrite history. sorry, not buying your lies. didnt then, and i dont now. carry on lying about anonymous folks on message boards, i bet you are a peach to live with. ha ha ha!

As I will say one last time, just hoping you move on and/or past your issues with last year, because I will fully admit I am sick of hearing about it.....and yes I fully understand that my optimism for the Iowa football program is the problem in this situation. I also understand that my optimism for this season is really looking stupid right now...oh wait nevermind, that is not the case at all...carry on

if he plays the obvious wrong QB, features a FB for no good apparent reason, kneels out the half with 1 min+& timeouts remaining, runs off tackle on 3rd and 12, punts on 4th & 1 on an opponents 30 and it goes in the end zone, his offense shows that he doesnt understand a 2:00 min drill or how to coach it, and or goes back to misusing TO's to potentially costing us a game then yeah I'll probably go back to being critical.

be a dumbass coach and some folks will notice the dumbassery.

What do you think Nebraska's fans think of Reilly after yesterday? if i were an UNL fan i would be very unhappy with the AD right about now...

this year i've had very little to comment on other than be a cheerleader around here. Go Hawks!

If u had ever coached or competed u would know things don't always go as planned - things in Real Time are different than u second guessing from ur couch.

Jake Rudock and CJB aren't as far apart as some people think. I do think CJB is more talented overall, and naming him the starter in January, while unCaptainish, was a huge (and ballsy) move.

How can someone say that after seeing the 2014 ISU game vs the 2015 ISU game?

Did i miss jake leading a 99 yard TD drive? Did i miss Jake making play after play after play to help win the 2nd half 21-0 like CJ did?

in what universe were those two performances even remotely close to each other?

Still going eh.....look at it this way- CJB threw for less than 100 yards against both Wisconsin and Nebby, looking less than stellar,and we still won. that would not have happened last year, bc we lacked much more than a stupid QB battle.....the problem is you are so hung up on one silly issue that you fail to realize this is far beyond CJB and certainly time to move on...CJB has come through in some tough moments but so has running game, special teams, LB's, DL, DB's, coaches, stadium crew, etc. just move on please

I said on numerous occasions Kirk ferentz needed to be shown the door. Kakert showed me the door instead and rightfully so. Seeing Kirk and the lines on his face spoke to me today. It's an astounding feet in today's college football atmosphere to sustain such longevity, when you have thousands of jerkoffs like me looking for immediate gratification. Well, I'm more than satisfied with the job he's done this year and the changes instituted. Even Greg Davis gets a nod from myself. I'm not apologizing for wanting more from my football program, just thankful the administration gave Kirk more respect than I did.

Kakert banned you before sept 24 2006??? Okay, I'm listening. Tell us more. Or you could tell us how many of the monikers in this thread are yours?

 

[Gladeskat]

nope just a misspelling. feet/feat not a WOB in my book. anyone else want to way in?

"weigh in"!

Total illiterate fail.

12-0 guys. Who gives a rats ass about last year? Enjoy the moment, they don't happen like this very often.

I'm sure jake is a good guy and all but to say that he and Cj are close is crazy. Cj has that I'll do anything necessary to win mentality (like superman leap when he is injured and shouldn't) and there's no way jake would do that (hell how many times did he check down on 3rd and 8 for a 3 yard pass)

I think Kirk knew the only way to save his job was to pick CJ. So really not that ballsy, just finally waking up and picking the best player at the position. Kirk looked in the mirror after last season and realized he made mistakes the past few years and made necessary changes.

Go Hawks!!

I will never apologize for my opinions on Hawkeye football. I am an 07 graduate from the U of Iowa and worked for UI Parking for several years. My money/labor directly or indirectly goes to Kirk Ferentz. I truly believe that the perceived value of my degree is tied in with the success of this football team. I am a metaphorical shareholder in Iowa football and the metaphorical CEO needs to be accountable to his metaphorical investors, especially ones that know what they are talking about... I do, believe it or not, and some of you do as well. KF even said it himself, he needed to evolve and rededicate himself to his craft.. and he did!

When your opinions are Stanzi should start over Christensen, being the first person on the Shonn Greene hypetrain, CJB over Rudock because CJ is an NFL caliber QB, Canzeri over Weisman, Powell should run more routes than a screen and a fly, Wadley needing more touches, and that Derrick Willies should have gotten more PT, it's hard to want to apologize for being a jerkoff.

That all being said, life's good and we're all on the same page now. Michigan State is going down.

of course, one would never intentionally utilize a homonym in a post pointing out a homonym.

not positive, but when you list your credentials as parking cars and your degree being tied to KF.....but I am pretty sure your credibility went from pretty low to 0....but hey glad to have another narcissistic personality join the convo

UI Parking pays KF's salary, bro. Iowa football plays a HUGE part to the national perception of the institution. Did you graduate from Iowa? Do you live in Iowa? Out here in California, the University of Iowa is known for how good it is at football, not how good the Speech Language Pathology program is. 4-8 was an absolute embarrassment, and it certainly devalued the national perception of the University.

 

[LuckyNed]

Since you wanted Kirk to be shown the door, as did many Hawkeye fans a year ago, is the buyout the only thing that kept that from happening? It really worked out, obviously, in hind sight, but where would Iowa be today had they actually pulled the trigger like so many wanted to do last year.

The average fan didn't want Kirk gone the message board trolls did. The knowledgeable fans knew some internal tweaking needed to be don

Anyone who thinks as a whole Iowa fans wanted Kirk gone would be sadly mistaken.

Lol, parking pays KF salary?!?!? And if Iowa wins your degree is perceived in higher regards? Maybe if your still parking cars, not in big boy world. I did graduate from Iowa and live in Colorado, lived in LA for 2 years and 2008-2010 and my degree did not carry more weight in 2009 than in did in 2008

There's not a lot that separates Iowa from Iowa State from an education standpoint. They are on pretty equal footing as far as that goes. All things equal, even in big boy world, an Iowa grad gets the nod over an Iowa State grad. Why? Because Iowa State f---ing sucks at football every god damn year and they are known losers. If you don't agree, that's ok. Just my opinion.

Although we share hatred for ISU, a degree in engineering, anything agriculture, or veterinarian hold a lot of weight, excellent programs in those fields at ISU.....now if you want a degree in business, law, or medicine Iowa is the place to go.....education go to UNI....none of that has to do with how the football team is performing

LOL it was midnight here in Cali, had a few players taking visits this weekend....staying at hotel and keeping eye on kids is pretty boring, the forums seemed like a logical place
