Dear Mr. Barta,
This solution would allow Kirk to coach as long as he wants (but without son Brian as OC obviously).
First and foremost. Hire Chuck Long as OC - a Hawkeye legend that has a impressive if not genious offensive mind (and he could actually be a legitmate QB coach!). If not Chuck...then someone of his caliber and qualified experience.
Let new OC decide whether Brian has merit to keep on staff...otherwise he needs to seek employment elsewhere.
Time has come to put the Iowa program above any one person...take action and stop the negative trend that everyone with any football IQ around the country understands concerning the offensive side of Iowa football.
Time to earn that grand AD salary ....put aside golf, staring out the window or whatever the distraction is and make things right.
