Its absolutely pathetic to think future players and /or recruits on here r reading some of your little cry baby piss azz comments and post.

We have basically a RS Frosh QB and 2 Frosh Tackles who replaced our most SR lineman, and are about to go 8-4 and another bowl game.

Good grief, get a clue & change your diapers, or PLZ, go find another team, its not that hard u clueless victims u.
 
Can't tell if this is a pessimistic post or optimistic, regardless the Hawks should be good next year but won't amount to any better than this year.... (hoping I'm wrong)...

I’ve noticed that no other team’s fans are mad when they lose. Must just be an Iowa thing.

5 days and you already run this piece ay?

LOL yeah.. no. this isn't some weird phenomenon associated with just Iowa football.

what does seem to be consistent with the Iowa fans on this board though is the inability to see things from more than one side of the coin. There is also a mob mentality to shit on anyone who tries to give an opinion or thought that differs from the "Iowa is so awesome" " oh shucks we lost" "best team in the land just not our day today" mentality.

It is near impossible to have an objective discussion on this board about the state of the football team without someone calling you a bad fan or telling you to stop following the team when there is a comment that is construed as negative about the Hawks.
 
Mad vs wanting a coaxh fired..r not the same
pretty difficult to make that comparison considering we are talking about a coach with the tenure that Kirk has. very few fan bases even have the ability to have that kind of discussion
 
This shits been going on for years. They still decide to go to Iowa. Whatever good was accomplished last week was destroyed today. Now we are back to where we were after the Minnesota game..mediocre at best.
If you can't find the talent to run your boring ass offense then change the effing offense. Offset the lack of talent with schemes that move the frickn ball.
 
Its a free message board dude, like you said it's all irrelevant. Fan is short for fanatical and Iowa fans are not unlike any other in the country. When the wins roll in its good times. When the losses bowl you over its not that fun.

Nobody on here is going to make the BIG decisions so if they want to spout off a little here or there, no real harm.

I agree, but I do wish that Kirk would go to the bench when we have guys under performing. We have Paulson and LeGrand on the bench and both of them started some games and played well last year. Certainly there were at least 3 of our O-lineman today that should have been shown the bench. At least give someone else a chance. The same could be said for Stanley, our punter and punt returner today. They don't have to be benched for next week, but maybe someone else could have given us a spark today.

Look slick if you're going to call out other posters at least have your facts correct. Our QB is a Soph. the OT's are Frosh and RS Frosh What team do you watch ?

Our offense today didn’t even get off the bus. If you you take the high praise from last week you half to take the criticism for the performance from today.

I think being mad is okay, but the constant drum beating of a coaching change every time Iowa loses a game is getting pathetic. It's not like it hasn't been this way since the first day Hayden Fry took over, something like the past 38 years. Iowa probably averages between 7 to 9 wins a season, and right now there on course for 8, as the Hawks should be favored to beat the next two foes. If they win there bowl game there's nine wins. This team should be able to win more than 9 games next year I believe as the schedule gets easier and the key players get experience.

The same over the top fan after every loss was there under Fry too. But far less avenues for them to pop up on. Being disappointed and angry over such a poor disappointment is 1 one thing. But when the usual suspects show up after a loss and then go in hiding after a great win it gets annoying.

I felt for a long time there is a certain group of people that actually enjoy a loss because they get to bitch. I see it IRL in non sports things with people that seem to be constantly complaining.

We got a decent chance at 8 is where I always see the base line for Iowa football.
 
This wasn't just a loss to Wisconsin. This was 60 yards of offense. Without the two pick sixes this was a 50 something - 0 loss. It is fair to question things after that. Oh, and the fact that we put up 55 points against Ohio State makes this more discouraging and puts the blame more squarely on the coaches.

Talk about one side of the coin!

Anyone that supports the coaching staff is labeled an idiot that is happy to settle for a mediocre football program, led by a man that only cares about money.

Most of the "next day" discussions aren't very objective.
 
This . All the KF fanboys want to ignore that KF did'n recruit and develop senior, junior & sophomore linemen that could replace the seniors who went down. Then we wouldn't have to rely on inexperienced freshmen.
And when can we expect all the Kirk Ferentz haters that don't understand that this has been Iowa football since 1979. Most of us are mature enough to understand what Hawkeye football is, maybe it's time for some of you to grow up and understand. You're like little children, just because you want something doesn't mean you're going to get it. We are not and have never been college football royalty, and all the coach bashing and bashing of Hawkeye fans who support the coaching staff are not going to make us college football royalty. All the constant bitching that the coaches must go and trashing the fans who support them do is show the world that you're an a**hole, with all due respect. Hell, Nebraska has won five national championships in the past 50 years, and they're not even college football royalty. Lol If you really want a coaching change I wrote a thread several weeks back that maybe you should read on what you need to do to get a coaching change, because nobody here wants to hear it, there's been 2.300 other threads written about it already, and there's one thing that you people need to take away from those 2.300 threads. "Coach Ferentz is the coach of the Iowa Hawkeyes until Coach Ferentz decides he does not want to be the coach of the Iowa Hawkeyes", PERIOD..... No amount of pissing and moaning on a pathetic little Forum like this is going to change that. No amount of trashing the people who have already understood this is what Hawkeye football is, is going to change that. So grow up and put on your big boy panties and join the world. Otherwise I would suggest you find a new team, cuz you certainly have shown that you do not know how to support this one. I am not saying you have to be happy with Hawkeye football the past 38 years, but stop bitching about it and do something about it if you want a new coaching staff. otherwise your only pissing into the wind, so get a towel, or do something to change it.

Taken at face value I can agree. However, there are two points I offer causing me to reject the sentiment you've offered.

First, I am not advocating change simply for the sake of it. Nineteen years is enough. Hayden, joepa and beemer all sucked their last few years and they were arguably better than Kirk. It's just the rhythm of life.

Secondly, I cannot accept the decision to give his kid the OC position and OTJ training without any vetting. No multimillion dollar business does this. But it's Iowa I get it we only want to look the part every four years or so.

I can respect your reasoning, and the civilness in which you point it out. The problem is the people who come here after every loss and trash the coaching staff and every fan who doesn't jump on board the trash the coaching staff. to be honest I think Brian Ferentz in time we'll be a better Coach than his dad. he already seems to have much more fire in his belly, and he won't be as unwilling to change. I try not to support or trash the coaching staff as I understand that they will be here until Kirk Ferentz decides to leave. I also believe that this team in the next two years has the foundation to be a very very good team, and I don't think it's all been on Brian Ferentz play calling. Next year we can't play the youth card, so let's wait and see.

Believe me, the mob mentality on this board doesn’t side with “Iowa is awesome”.

So your already marking the “W” s for the next 2 games........I wouldn’t be marking a “W” for any game regardless.

This firing thing I believe is a societal thing. And there is usually some over-reacting involved.

Not so sure that the big money being paid to coaches also creates some jealousy with the critics also.

I am never happy with a loss, but this has been a decent season. Losing some close games that might have been wins, could have made this a very good season.

Posts like this is why I rarely post on the football board. I get labeled a cry baby, idiot and not a real fan all because I don't like KF and I actually believe Iowa can do better.
 
For the first time in a long time the "power" has switched back from KF to the administration. The facts are Brian is going to have 3 years, just like every coach, to show he can make this a decent offense. Last week was awesome and this week stinks but the overall numbers are how he will be evaluated. If his numbers are in the bottom third, as they are now, KF will have to fire his son and the Empire will start to crumble. OR. BRIAN will figure out how to make this a middle of the pack offense team and we as fans will have what we want. KF used his legacy to get his son a job he probably wasn't qualified for and thus his name is attached to it. We bought an unknown commodity it will either pay out huge or it will cause the whole thing to crumble, which may not be the worst thing in a few years anyway.

Agreed!! Don't forget to mention a true freshman OC. Just hungover a bit from last week and that's ok! No way would I trade the Ohio win for Wisconsin.

I think it would be much worse if recruits saw that game yesterday. Do you think the meltdown on Ohio State's board last week scared away any five star recruits? I'm pretty sure that's not how recruits make their decisions. If a recruit is looking at message boards to figure out if he should go to that school then he's got bigger problems to worry about.

Has BF ever played or coached in an offense other than what iowa runs? Could he be successful running something different?
 
God, this is why I absolutely love message boards. You’ve got those that hate everything KF and the coaches do, you’ve got these that hate everyone that hates everything’s KF and the coaches do, and you’ve got those that think 17 year olds make recruiting decisions based on what old fat arses say.
