Agree with your thoughts on Mark. I just don't see Mark coming to Iowa if it was offered, at best a lateral move for him now that he's built that program up to where it is. I would like to see Mark as the HC at Iowa, but I don't think it will happen at this point considering his current success at UK and where he's at in his career trajectory.
No it’s not. But you also can’t recognize the Ws have been pretty good. That’s the ultimate stat. At least it used to be when I was in school. Last years offense was offensive. But some will give another season with Cade and more experience to see if we get significant improvement. Call us Charlie Browns but this season will tell.
We likely will never hang in that first tier with Bama and Georgia and Ohio State but we should have some decent shots at being in the second tier of teams. An average offense with the defense we have had would definitely put us solidly in second tier standing behind the biggest of the bigs.
In Theological circles, there is what is known as Apologetics.
According to Bobby about 16 months ago, Mark would definitely leave for Iowa.
LMAO just because you know what apologetics is doesn't mean it applies or that you're using it correctly.
ISUThanks for the post.
So, Iowa is not the laughingstock of the world?
Well you ain't gonna have to worry about anything for about 5 years.
Sorry. Some fans want a Big 10 Championship out right which hasnt happened under Kirk and a shared title 18 years ago. If it is negative to want to make the next step, so be it. The other elephant in the room is a very soft non conference schedule and playing in the pathetic Big 10 west. Kirks record in his 5 biggest games is 1 and 4. 1 and 1 in the Orange Bowl, 0 and 2 in Big 10 Championship games and a topic every one here never talks talks about, the giant ass kicking in the Rose Bowl, 35 0 at the half. I remember it well, I was there. I think Kirk is a good guy, a good coach, and does things the right way except for Tommy Boy. I would be happy to debate anything Ive written. I do think Iowa will win 9 to10 games this year. Cade along with a soft schedule len
It's funny how relative things are. We are currently in our longest drought for a B10 title since the dark ages from 1961-1980.
What was the record from 1961 - 1980 vs the record from 2005-2023? You can't seriously being comparing these two stretches as similar?It's funny how relative things are. We are currently in our longest drought for a B10 title since the dark ages from 1961-1980.
Quite literally, we have one more year left to win a title before we reach that milestone (2005-2023).
Let us as a collective fanbase not make excuses for such a stretch of mediocrity @pistachio1999
And I don't give a single solitary FU** anymore how much the game has changed either....how bout that.
That, and at least one year in that stretch would have been a B1G title during any other stretch in Iowa football history. 2015.
Do we allow Iowa State fans to make that argument about 2020?........................just sayin.
If comparing Campbell’s accomplishments to Walden’s, yes, I wouldDo we allow Iowa State fans to make that argument about 2020?........................just sayin.
All I'm saying is Kirk is highly respected by other many other coaches not only for who he is but also for how he runs his program. Yes, an outright B1G title would be fantastic but when you are competing against the likes of OSU, Michigan, and Penn State it is much easier said than done. Those teams have built-in advantages we don't have and never will.
They say the exact same thing about our defense. It’s basic. And they are disciplined. People seem to think our D is somehow exotic. It’s not.
By the way, I could give a shit what the other coaches think. The bottom line is showing up in the big games and winning the Big 10 more than Ive already stated.
I have stated Kirk is a good guy, a good coach and loved by his players. He also runs a clean program. I just get tired of the guys who blow smoke out their ass. They dont look at the whole body of work and their dumbest thing is twisting shit around trying to say the west is fairly even with east. 0 and 9 ok.
Hey Frosty whats the ha ha funny icon about. I want debate.
If their the best coached team in the Big 10, then their the shittiest recruiting team in the Big 10. Which part of never winning a Big 10 title and only sharing a title 19 years ago cant you get through your thick skull. Stick to high school football.
Not winning a Big 10 title every year idiot. Just more than a Areshared title every 19 years and counting. You are every thing thats moronic about Iowa football. Then you throw in about Iowa fans expecting Nattys. Get off the board, your embarrassing yourself.
It’s difficult to decipher which posts your replies are referring to.
Doesn't matter. He just replied the same thing to every post. Something about one shared title in 19 years.
I used to live in Dallas and went to Texas Stadium when the Boys won 3 Super Bowls in 4 rears. You bringing up all you did and every one you know reminds me of Troy Aikmans wife when she got picked up for drunk driving and pulled out the do you know who I am card. It didnt mean shit, she went to jail and Troy eventually divorced her ass. She new every one in the Cowboy organization and it meant nothing.
Hire Brian Hartline Ohio State Offensive Coordinator. Until this year he was coach of the Buckeyes passing game. Have you ever seen OSUs QBs and wide receivers and
