Waiting for everyone pissed off at this hire to settle down so when they announce it, it will piss everyone off again?
Marketing team in spin mode, trying to put lipstick on a pig. I'm also having my public relations team scan these message boards for potential questions, and developing a F.A.Q. so Kirk has a script. but then again, as another poster pointed out, too many pussies in the media room the ask the questions
Gonna announce hot dogs will be $1 off at the first game.
It'll happen when it happens. Probably waiting for all the pieces to be in place regarding the coaching staff so that it can all be announced at once.
what kf should've done is kept johns under wraps, leaked out the possibility that budmayr would be the guy, and then appointed lester. if he'd done that, today we would all be so happy and celebrating lester. as things stand, another day or two might be required to let the outrage subside.
You trying to tell us something? Or just hopeful? TIAWould be crazy if it was Lester as OC and Johns as QB coach
Now that would be interesting. Not going to happen but maybe, just maybe, Johns just loved working for Lester so much that they want to give it another go around at a school that can actually recruit some talent with relative ease. Hell, our QB/WR coaches probably get paid very handsomely in relation to most of college footballs OCs nowadays anyway outside of the SEC.Would be crazy if it was Lester as OC and Johns as QB coach
Its NEVER going to happen, but if both are involved somehow .... here's hoping it turns out that Lester is QB coach and Johns is OC.
Copeland’s departure gives us another opening.
As noted above, Copeland’s position was posted two weeks ago, as of tomorrow (Tuesday).
He’s an offensive analyst. Pretty sure the OC will be the QB coach as well.
Budmayr has been “senior special assistant to the head coach,” which doesn’t count against the limit for assistant coaches, but he’s limited in the contact he can have with players.
Probably, although that depends on Lester. He might end up as wide receivers coach.
Unofficially he's simply known as The Gift.
If that's the case, Lester makes a hell of a lot more sense in both roles. Never understood having BF also be the QB coach. Bottom line is a QB coach needs to have played the position. It's not as interchangeable as line or receiving positions are.
Lester was a damn good college QB. I’m trying to find the positives here.
Rhinestone cowboy was legit!!
I would have expected there to be a press conference by now? Is there one set up for later this week?
Or Alabama, USC, Penn State, Texas A&M, Washington, Florida State, Oregon, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Auburn, Ole Miss, Ohio State, Oklahoma and on and on
You might be right. Copeland doesn't show up in the UIowa directory but Brian does.
