Idea for modernizing/updating the Iowa FB program:

[Iron Doc]

Hire this guy as HC and keep Phil & LeVar.

Barry Switzer, 'The King' of Norman, is still unapologetically himself at 87

The coach won three national titles at Oklahoma and ended his tenure over 30 years ago. But he has never become invisible in the town where he became famous.

Well, I can't say my expectations weren't met when I opened this thread............

Switzer would probably tell KF to lay off the gum chewing and instead start smoking cigarettes on the sideline to improve his reaction time and in-game decision making. He also would tell KF that not every recruit needs to come from a "good family".

Wouldn't be afraid to innovate.

I don't disagree, but I would hope there are innovative coaches available that come with a longer shelf life.

He could bring The Boz with him to assist Phil and eventually take over for Phil.

If we're hiring someone in that age range then might as well see if Bill Snyder is interested. JFC.
