It wasn't a "fluke" season. However, it WAS a season in which we didn't play O$U, Michigan, or Penn State.I'm talking about the whole season
All true. BUT we did play the BEST team in the east that year to a stand up draw basically, so....It wasn't a "fluke" season. However, it WAS a season in which we didn't play O$U, Michigan, or Penn State.
Absolutely. Up to that point, we beat who the schedule put in front of us.All true. BUT we did play the BEST team in the east that year to a stand up draw basically, so....
If Kirk goes, Phil will be right behind him!!The Ferentzi need to go.
Keep Phil, LeVar, and the defensive assistants.

Well, that guy is still alive…I want an offensive coordinator like Hayden had. And I don't mean in his last few years when age made it hard to recruit. Hayden's teams were exciting and fun to watch and Kirk's teams offense is always boring and playing not to lose.
TBF, there has only been 3. One of them was already retired and and the other 2 never held another DIV 1 OC position...Agreed. KF selects lousy OC's.
So at least all pretense of Barta doing Brian's evaluations has been dropped. That's nice.
Agree.
But I think it’s important to factor in when a Cooper DeJean type comes in he automatically goes to Parker.
Fans hated KOK.
This board was swamped weekly with fire KOK threads.
Kirk Ferentz’s philosophy is minimize mistakes on O, play solid D, excellent ST and he’ll win more than not. He’s made 10s of millions off this strategy. All his kids graduated from the same HS. Statue to come. Rare things for a college coach. All those HCs that hired such great OCs have all been fired. Gone. KF still doing what he loves where he loves to do it.
Iowa is a year removed from the B1G championship game. Iowa has a low ceiling. One bad HC hire and you’re Illinois or Minnesota.
And there's the Tom Davis reference.
I see there are still fans who are scared and convinced any coaching change will automatically make the team worse.
The Ferentzi need to go.
Keep Phil, LeVar, and the defensive assistants.
They’re dumb!You realize with no KF around, it is highly unlikely those coaches stay. Not only would a new coach need to decide to keep all of them on, they would need to decide to want to work for a new coach and not seek solid offers other places.
Is Phil HC material? Could he take Kirk’s place?If Kirk goes, Phil will be right behind him!!
KOK did, but that was building the program. The Off has not evolved to keep up with times.
Yes, it is and has always been KF that dictates the Off. Not sure why a P5 coach would handcuff himself so.
Who evaluates annually? Lol
Football is a game of adjustments. If you can’t adjust in season then you have the 2022 Hawks
Well, that guy is still alive…
You might just as well say you have the 2021, 2020, 2019, et al Hawks. Ferrets’ out the false agendas
The Ferentzi need to go.
Keep Phil, LeVar, and the defensive assistants.
But again, 2021, 2020,2019, etc…. Do you ever wonder why Talking Heads in fans use “talking points”….
Former player agrees and make a great point. You stay complacent and you have the shitshow known as the Hawkeye offense.
there’s virtually no chance the majority of the defensive coaches return if a new coach comes in. You’d maybe keep, one, perhaps two, to assist with player retention.
I love Phil (I hope they would just pay the man more money), but if Kirk leaves over Brian being let go and Phil goes with. The move would be to pay Jim Leonhard well to come in and take over as DC.
“We are what our record says we are” is what Brian said?
I agree with you. I remember Hayden’s teams. They were built on line play and great defense, just like Kirk. Revisionist history is alive and well. I was literally just making the joke that Bill still alive, as if he would become Iowa’s OC. The poster I replied to seemed to possibly not know know who that OC he wants even was.I’m not trying to be a jerk when I’m saying this, but that is mostly selective memory…
I’ve been through Hayden’s schedule multiple times and they had a whole shit ton of clunkers, and they really weren’t very competitive with the top tier teams, many years!
Sure we had years but looking back to the schedules doesn’t denote an offensive guru like the PR department would suggest meaning Hayden!

Maybe you replied to the wrong post?
Phil has previously shown no interest in being head coach. That could always change but don’t think he has interest in Al public events, media etc andIs Phil HC material? Could he take Kirk’s place?

Biggest cop-out, lack of personal accountability garbage response if I’ve ever heard one.
F**k Brian.
You’re probably one of three or four posters I couldn’t care less about.Should’ve been the perfect response for someone like you… I think we’ve heard enough from you to suggest that our 7-5 record sucks and we suck and that’s what he said…we suck!
GEEZ never happy!! 😜
My feeling is that like Phil Parker learned from Norm Parker, so too do guys like Levar Woods and Seth Wallace. I think if you like Phil Parker that much, you go other people who learned from him, how he thinks, what he looks for in various position players, and how he would choose to defend each team. To me, you don’t go outside of the Iowa program to fill a Defensive Coordinator position as the footprint for what we have been doing over the last 2 decades justifies staying within.I love Phil (I hope they would just pay the man more money), but if Kirk leaves over Brian being let go and Phil goes with.

Now, get back to praying to the Sky Wizard that Brian isn’t let go b/c I’m sure you’d be devastated if he’s fired.
