You really do not know the meaning of irony. Once the name calling starts, you've lost the argument. Let the thread die.
You'll make some guy real happy some day I'm sure. Please look up irony in a dictionary. I will not insult Iowa university, as it is abundantly clear you did not finish high school let the thread die, you are embarassing the decent hawk fans.
iowa might not have changed head coach, but we've made plenty of coaching changes this year.....
You guys are so sensitive. I'm saying I don't think he's the guy but he appears to be "trying" to get to elite status. The Key word is "trying". I assumed that Elite should be the goal for every team correct? I say that by Riley hiring a up and coming DB coach and good recruiter in DWilliams. Also by hiring Diaco as DC and a coach in Elliott as well. Will it work who knows but i think he's making moves when they need to be done. Just my opinion.
I'm aware of that. Tressel was an option and could coach it's just those penalties would have followed him. I think it was worth the risk.
Yes were overly sensitive, and your full of crap! So you come on the Iowa site, and make the statement that Iowa is content in not trying to be"elite", I'm assuming because we didn't fire our head coach 3 times in the last nine or ten years like N. Meanwhile N, is making every effort to be "elite" because they keeping firing coaches, even though its gotten them no where. I'm sure since your on the Iowa website a lot evidently, that you know we also hired three new coaches this year, including some young, "up and comers". So just so its clear, what exactly has Nebraska done that Iowa hasn't?
Because it's an Iowa board no one else is allowed to have an opinion opposite of the majority? Well, I am a husker fan but in played juco back in the day at ICCC and was coached by Dan Clark. My best friend and high school teammate played at Iowa St. I've had close friends and teammates play at UNI and Iowa. Iowa also recruit Omaha kids well and I like to follow them too. So I've always followed Iowa football and I do know they hired a couple new coaches. This board usually have good football info about kids in the Midwest that I like to know about as well. Most other boards are boring. So I will keep coming and giving my opinion. Ok!!!
I'm not the board police, you can do what you want. I just don't get your comment that Nebraska has done something out of the ordinary because, their attempting to return to their glory days, while Iowa is complacent and doesn't care. Basically both schools have done the same thing in the last year by replacing about a third of their staffs in a hope of sparking a resurgence. The only thing Nebraska has done, that Iowa has not is fire their head coach, and bring in a guy who basically has a losing record as a power five coach.I guess I'm just not smart enough to see their clear path to their resurgence.
Those are your words, I never said they did anything out of the ordinary. I ever stated that Iowas didnt care. My point was Iowa and Nw were the most stable while the other west teams were in transition with head coaches and they should have capitalized off of it. And in my first sentence I stated that both were avaerage teams. I have no idea how you got any of that misconstrued. So, I'll leave it as that as i see you're very subjective
How did I misconstrue? This your quote. You said the difference is N is making an effort to get to elite status, and Iowa seems to be content with being average based off recruiting and coaching hires. Did you forget what you said? How is that not saying that Iowa doesn't care when your saying their content with being average? Jeesss......
Don't engage, bail out while you still can! Get ready for the following responses:
It's a thread that states, "if Iowa could pull its weight in football we wouldnt have to bring neb in......"
You can take credit, but now I'm "1979 to present guy". 8-4. Or I could take after typical Iowa fan and say I'm "1982-2012 guy" 5-0, but that's just not ok.
This is a football board, but if you want, we can compare the accomplishments of alumni from both schools. Gonzo it must be tough to pick fights you cannot possibly win. Sad.
