Well the last receiver they got from tOSU had hands of stone…If he came to Iowa KF probably wouldn't play him because he can't block, lol.
Maybe Smith has always wanted to be a punter or frequently used long-snapper.
These comments are SO far beyond stupid, its incredible. Did DJK not play enough to set records at Iowa even given numerous issues including the the drug house he lived in off campus? Did ISM and B Smith, McNutt not play? The mindless banter about Kf not playing talent is as old as dust. Try something new for a change...If he came to Iowa KF probably wouldn't play him because he can't block, lol.
Someone's extra sensitive today, lol.These comments are SO far beyond stupid, its incredible.

Kirk’s offense is not and was never designed to develop wide receivers. Damn… he has been at Iowa 25 years now and you haven’t figured that out yet? Kirk is gonna run the ball, play solid defense, have better than most special teams, value the ball and play the field position game to beat you. He throws a pass every once in a while just to keep the fans interested.Someone's extra sensitive today, lol.
You're right, KF's record of producing NFL caliber WRs is unquestionable.
Take whatever angle you want the bottom line is people who follow college football associate Iowa with bad offense.Yes the info is out there but to think some 16 year old is thinking “oh yeah, 2 years ago when I was discovering the joy of cleaning up with my sock the Iowa offense wasn’t very good” A lot of you put far too much stock in to something you are very narrowly focused on that these kids just do not care about or remember or quite frankly were probably never aware of. I couldn’t tell you who won any of the last 5 super bowls (or any before that) it is information that goes in and out u less you are deeply invested. I know the Cubs won the 2016 World Series, couldn’t tell you who won any of them since.

Never said that did I? I said if he has talent at that spot they play and produce, if he has someone to throw them the ball. Making a comment like if we had the best WR in the game that Kirk wouldn't play the guy. Its not about being "sensitive". Its just 15 years of the same pointless BS comments that simply aren't factual. And as a point of fact , YES WR's need to block downfield. Its part of their job description even in the NFL...Someone's extra sensitive today, lol.

I hate this shit.
This is no longer college athletics, and only the rich will advance barring some changes....I hate this shit.
The NCAA is on life support as the P4 conferences are taking the whole over. Don’t expect NCAA to do anything without the ok from P4 leadership. NCAA will soon manage a watered down collegiate group outside of the P4 or perhaps all sports other than football and basketball.I would like to see the NCAA coral that horse and never let him out of the barn but your point is well taken. The NCAA will probably do nothing to curb what is happening in college sports.

True, but its not just Iowa. We're just to close to the situation. Its everybody but 7 or 8 teams really. I could certainly see Iowa getting into the CFP round of 12 if Lester gets the QB thing worked out in the next couple of seasons, but like most it would take a really advantageous draw for us to get to the last 4 teams. There is just too much of a gap in talent throughout the rosters of the top teams.Kinda feels like Iowa is the Minnesota Twins and Ohio State/Oregon are the Yankees/Dodgers
Well we just need a top 25 NIL fund and expect our coaches to get us into the 12 or 14 or 16 whatever it ends up being.Kinda feels like Iowa is the Minnesota Twins and Ohio State/Oregon are the Yankees/Dodgers
Getting the talent is the #1 job of a position coach.I'm not saying Hartline isn't a good coach but Bud would be successful at OSU with all that talent.
I don't think so that is what they say themselvesYou think they are committing because Hartline is the WR coach?
Yeah, Lester calls down from the birth to ask, "When' that joelbc want us to run that obligatory pass play?"Kirk’s offense is not and was never designed to develop wide receivers. Damn… he has been at Iowa 25 years now and you haven’t figured that out yet? Kirk is gonna run the ball, play solid defense, have better than most special teams, value the ball and play the field position game to beat you. He throws a pass every once in a while just to keep the fans interested.
Even the Yankees are having problems keeping up with the Dodgers now.Kinda feels like Iowa is the Minnesota Twins and Ohio State/Oregon are the Yankees/Dodgers
Hartline's responsible for getting that WR talentI'm not saying Hartline isn't a good coach but Bud would be successful at OSU with all that talent.
Iowa’s need for WR is not as great as it might be for other D-1 football teams. You only need 1….UIowa and KF prefer to use tight ends… I would like to see UIowa get a speedster on the outside though…(the last one we had from tOSU, had hands of stone)…but then maybe we Dan get a qb who can throw the ball over 20 yds. First….He could sign a lot of players if he was GM of the Dodgers because of some of the same advantages $$$, winning history, talent at other positions. I'm just saying it isn't nearly as hard to get wide receivers to commit to OSU. 5 star receivers aren't going to commit to Iowa if we hire Hartline as WR coach.
NCAA would lose in court to DIII athletes when it comes to NIL.The NCAA is on life support as the P4 conferences are taking the whole over. Don’t expect NCAA to do anything without the ok from P4 leadership. NCAA will soon manage a watered down collegiate group outside of the P4 or perhaps all sports other than football and basketball.
