Is Kirk here five more years?

[kkhawk]

Want to blow your mind? KFz has been at Iowa 7 years longer than JoPa was at Penn St and 5 years longer than Bo was at Michigan.

Wrong. JoPa was at PSU as head guy from 66-11

 

[eyesofhawk]

That wasn't the point though was it.........

Couldn't begin to tell you what the point was

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Couldn't begin to tell you what the point was

I appreciate that you're unashamed in your "obnoxious optimist" trolling........

 

[Slappy Pappy]

He would have been just to provide job security and a living for his kid. Now that Brian is gone....well, maybe he still will stick around for 5 or more years since Brian needs an allowance again.

 

[eyesofhawk]

I appreciate that you're unashamed in your "obnoxious optimist" trolling........

Obnoxious? Yeah, probably at times.

Optimist? Yeah, probably for the most part. But on this board, nothing other than a realist.

Ashamed? There's nothing relating to Hawkeye football or myself to be ashamed of.

Trolling? Nah. Much of this board trolls itself by constantly assuming coaches are clueless

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Obnoxious? Yeah, probably at times. (So, unashamed?)

Optimist? Yeah, probably for the most part. But on this board, nothing other than a realist. (So, unashamed?.......)

Ashamed? (No, unashamed.......) There's nothing relating to Hawkeye football or myself to be ashamed of. (So..................................unashamed?)

Reading is half the battle.

Trolling? Nah. (Yeah.) Much of this board trolls itself by constantly assuming coaches are clueless

So, you're trolling yourself then........which still proves my point.



P.S. people need to understand the difference between being a "realist" and a "pragmatist". They typically say realist because they're lazy and don't want to sound "too smart"...................or they just don't know the difference, and don't want to admit it.

I'd take 6-1 you're a Virgo.

I'd take 3-1 you're on the weed

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

You mean logical, practical and systematic in my approach to life?

I'd take 3-1 you're on the weed

Weed is bad for your health......

 

[eyesofhawk]

So I hit the Virgo. That's pretty good; willing to only take 6-1 on a 12-1 bet.

And since Virgos are sarcastic, I may have even been right about the weeds

 

[BonzoFury]

Wrong. JoPa was at PSU as head guy from 66-11

Well, for Joe Pa perhaps you mean since Penn State had joined the B10, because he was PSU coach for over 40 years.

But that'd still be a crazy stat regarding Bo Schembechler.

Yep, good catch. Those are JoPa's B1G years.

Who has ever said "you're on the weed"? Some hillbilly redneck sheriff from Ala-f*cking-Bama?

 

[HawkCharlotte]

Do you think that Kirk will be here for more or less than 5 years?

No, this is his last year.

Last week showed Iowa doesn't need him. We need young blood.

 

[nu2u]

looking forward to a change, hopefully after this season.

Beth Goetz needs to have a sit with Kirk after the Nebraska game.

 

[Iafootballfan]

He won’t even be here next season

People were laughing at me for saying this earlier- not so funny now is it?

 

[Here_4_a_Day]

Do you think that Kirk will be here for more or less than 5 years?

I hope he is.......so the assholes who continue to back this braindead moron can enjoy many, many more games like today....like the TN bowl game and like last year's MN debacle!!

 

[Macbride79]

Tim Lester may have committed career suicide in becoming an OC under Kirk Ferentz.

Offense looks the same as it has throughout the first half of the 2020s decade. Atrocious QB play has been a constant.

 

[radicalhawk]

Why would anyone want Ferentz here for 5 more years or think that this year would be something special? He hasn't won anything substantial in 20 years (a shared Big Ten Title). Ferentz is the Lucy pulling away the football and the Iowa fans are the Charlie Brown in the Peanuts cartoon strip.

He'll likely be fine. The coaching world knows who the common denominator is.

 

[Bierhalter]

Most people in the fanbase think winning seasons and bowl game trips are special

 

[BonzoFury]

Back to the OP. Will he be here 5 more years? I've never said this before...but I hope not. Yesterday's loss was complete Low T. It's time for someone else.
Appreciate all KFz has done for the program and the University. But it's time to step aside for the next era.

 

[hawkeye54545]

No

A la Bill Belichick….well, sans the 20 something arm Candy!🍭

 

[Phenomenally Frantastic]

I have Ferentz Fatigue. Bad case too I’m afraid.

Was Tim Lester’s coaching resume really that great to begin with? I actually never knew Elmhurst College had a football program and throw in the fact that a MAC programs fired him. Having said that, I actually saw some things a liked from him - but time will tell…😎

 

[reedsposer22]

Not sure, but I want to go to the final game of his. weather we suck or not

 

[MeetTheFerentzes]

Oh, she will (or after the Pinstripe Bowl)

I'm convinced it's because they hate us on here more than they dislike our actual pathetic showings. Anybody at this point who still lives and breathes KF style football is simply argumentative and just doesn't see the point in commiserating with peers I guess.

I mean, it's so completely obvious what the problem is. You can't be an actual fan of football, at any level, for any decent length of time, and not realize it. So yeah, it has to be that some people would rather argue about it instead to feel like they have some control in it all, right?

In reality, we all want the same damn thing.

 

[Phenomenally Frantastic]

No idea what Kirk is thinking, but he'll never have a better opportunity to make a splash and get to the CFP than this year. He will never have a more experienced and talented defense. He will never have a more experienced QB, oline, and Tight Ends. He will never have a more favorable schedule than he has this year. The next few years on the other hand could be pretty rough when all of these advantages flip. I have to believe that none of this is lost on him.

Much is lost on Kirk.

2015 was pretty fun. That was mostly the DBs, OL, TEs, and CJB’s heroics though. KF tried his best to have CJ benched for that season too like 2014 but relented.

2015 happened in spite of KF not because of him.

 

[Kinnick.At.Night]

Perhaps. Either way, there's not a thing anyone who wants him gone can do about it. Kirk Ferentz is Iowa's HC until he says he's done. Enjoy.

 

[large78]

It will be a 1 year rolling extension so always that 4 or 5 years out there. If and when he retires he doesn't get paid out for any of the contract left since it would be a voluntary departure.

He will NOT get a contract extension after 2029.

WOB's were often just interesting spelling errors.
