Fact: Ferentz Cannot Win The Big One

Time and time again when it matters we can't get it done. Look to Wisconsin this year. I also point to MSU 2015, OSU 2009, and so on. We will continue to enjoy 6-6 to 9-3 seasons, but a B1G title will not happen until we have a head coach not named Ferentz.


Fairly true. This game sucked bad. Hard to witness
 
4 active coaches in America have won national titles, so you could EASILY make that argument about the other 126 of them.

Drop any name for me of the other 126 and I'll give you the examples of how they blew the big ones when they had their shot.
Thanks for some perspective on this topic Beep. People should really think before they post. If thats the measuring stick, how many big games has Chryst won, or Harbough as an example?

I’m sick of blind supporters and settling

I am sick of people who don't watch, support or cheer for the Hawkeyes sharing their opinion. Thought you had switched your fandom to baseball. Heller is doing a great job. They play fall games as well so enjoy their progress.

That won't happen in my lifetime. Pretty much the writing is on the wall who is going to assume the position when KF gives it up. Not necessarily saying it is bad. Just saying.
 
Cry babies like this can get lost, go root for Alabama if you need to feel like a winner constantly. Hawks lost, it sucks move on you baby. Ferentz will be here 6-7 more years until he wants to retire and rightly so

Ferentz can win the big one but typically the close "big one" decided late is where he struggles.

KF has many strengths. Aggressiveness and clock management in big spots aren't 2 of them.

KF biggest draw back is not adjusting to his players strengths and instead trying to get them to adjust.
He is not a fluid coach like i believe great coachs are.
He stand there like a mountain until the wind and rain erodes him away.
He done some great things for Iowa but this is as far as it goes for football.
 
2009 OSU we had a backup quarterback you nitwit...
I think I got PTSD from the NW game when we lost Stanzi. Wegher's 90-yard td run was called back for holding. Next play later, Stanzi goes down in endzone with a broken leg. I was in the near corner of the endzone and had a perfect view of it. I still cringe every time I play that back in my mind.

Except that mountains don't write mysterious information in notebooks.

Chryst has won several and Harbaugh was nfl coach of the year so there is that
 
Kirk Ferentz definitely didn't kick Ohio State's teeth in last year. I'm pretty sure that was a big game.

Lol. I love that the evidence for 6-6 to 9-3 seasons are two losses, one from an 11 win season and one from a 12 win season. Solid logic there!

We make our non conference schedule so you are wrong
he's been talking about ohio state.
they are in the big 10 and would not be considered "non conference games"
i know you're a little slow so wanted to help you out.....

"We?" Now you work in the athletic department and help with schedules? How much did Iowa pay UNI to play at Kinnick? I find it odd that you write the schedules yet don't follow, watch or support Iowa football.
 
Um...last night? Chryst pretty much wrapped up the BIG10 West with that win, on the road.

I’d say last night.
Its far from over, one game in. I responded as such, because I think he was talking more about actually winning the conference, (not just a half), and playing for and winning national titles. As others said thats a pretty damn small group of coaches.

Is Harbough an NFL coach, or is he coaching the Wolverines? Who is his employer? Should they fire him this year if he finishes 3rd or 4th in his division again? Exactly how many has Chryst won, that places him so far ahead of KF? Not talking about the west, I'm talking about the conference?
