Jay Norvell
- Thread starter SoFla-Hawkeye
- Start date
In a BIG special about how Hayden rebuilt Iowa football, there's a scene where Norvell voices his amazement about Fry trudging thru the Wisconsin snow to make a home visit on time. It's one of the more sincere statements of appreciation I've seen, and it always leaves the impression that Norvell became a Hawkeye for life upon that occasion. Maybe one day a big welcome back home!
Did you forget the crappy conference they play in? A texas high school team would put up 20 against most of the little 12 defenses.
Yeah but that 28.2 points per game last year was only good for 71st in the country.
I would take Norvell over Davis anyway. Sorry but the GD experiment is over. The guy's only real success at Texas was with Vince Young, Rickey Williams, and other NFL talent at the skill positions.
Sorry but Iowa does not have that, he has not brought his "texas" pipeline to Iowa, so I say after this year cut ties with him. He has not shown any improvement over Kenny OKeefe. The 3yd slant/out route is not getting it done. Also we do not have a "spread type" QB on our roster. I love the 3rd & 4 spread formation. Sorry but that ain't gonna work and we are not a zone read team.

Or Iowa could have been 9-3 if they scored more touchdowns in the red zone last season.
