The Kirk Ferentz coaching tree is nothing more than a tiny tiny shrub, that should scream awful right there

There's no reason anyone needs to interview in person these days. My guess is it will all be through zoom/teams or something like that and whoever it is won't be in IC until the day of the press conference.
You wouldn't want to see the potential city you're going to live in? Stadium & facilities?
I think this may be a little different.
And Wadley as RB's coach?
Heck, time for City Boys to come back and coach the WRs...You can virtually tour the stadium and facilities and any high end property in iowa city. If it is Joe Philbin (which it sounds like), he already has seen everything.
Rumors flying that Saban is retiring from Alabama
Maybe that’s our next OC!!?!??
Maybe that’s our next OC!!?!??
unless he's the fallback here...knowing our crack squad we will hire this fish rather than expanding our search beyond one or two people...watch!! Either lazy or more arrogance...either way, we're screwed!!
Bags 'o cash for TDs and picks? Just hand them out on the sideline. To heck with the sideline props!And Wadley as RB's coach?
There’s a small amount of coaches that would take this job unless they have full control of the offense. Kirk won’t let that happen, so I’m expecting a boring hire.
It's entirely possible. The last 25 years say you are unfortunately. All we have is hope though...
Key word is "desired"
or five (5) years successful coaching experience in a highly competitive environment including at a major high school, college, professional level or combination;
Desired Qualifications:
Freaking high-school. 😲
And Hayden’s is a giant oak.
The longer this goes the uglier it gets. Beth or whomever other than Kirk that interviews potential candidates better dig in around autonomy around recruiting, scheming, and overall direction of offense as part of the expectation that needs to be defined by Kirk and related to candidates. As mentioned above, any candidate worth his salt will demand an opportunity to make necessary changes or they will NOT be coming to Iowa!
It sounds like Philbin according to who? All I’ve heard recently is that Chryst is the most likely to be hired.
Hey! That's MAJOR high school mister!!
Someone, maybe kakert, changed their tune about philbin thinking chryst may have turned down the offer. Also, I heard somewhere that iowa is being cheap about this. Now idk if that means the college set a limit or thought they could low ball coaches… not sure anybody knows anything really, they may be making assumptions due to how long it’s taking. At this point I’d take any speculation with a grain of salt. IIRC the Greg Davis hire was a bit out of nowhere at the time so it might even be someone we’ve never talked about on these boards…
Looking forward to Chad and Scott’s podcast tomorrow where they’ll hopefully give a better sense of where things stand and what they’re hearing.
reports of Bill OBrien being at Coraville HyVee. I also heard Pual Cryst bought a freezer.
he should be fired just for bringing Deacon Hill in. There is no F way he can hire him. I refuse to believe that would be accepted by boosters. Maybe I am naive.
He doesn’t have to be accepted by boosters does he??? I don’t think KF is silly enough to believe that he is the best candidate. But if he is the next OC I’m sure as heck not gonna be buying any tickets.
he should clean house of anybody involved in the passing game.
The more I think about it the more I think he will hire him.
May not be the best candidate but may end up being the only candidate. Kirk’s conservative offense isn’t appealing to many current OC’s, if any.
Hayden Fry hired Barry Alvarez out of a high school. Kirk Ferentz hired Reese Morgan out of a high school.
With Saban and Belichick now both on the way out, the coaching landscape is in a bit of an upheaval. I figure there could be many folks waiting to see how the dust settles before making commitments.
So does Tommy Rees leave Bama for Iowa with them hiring a new HC. Rees name came up to replace Fitz at NW and also at Indiana. 2-3 years at Iowa if all goes well he could have a job for 30 years.
