And then we wonder why KF gets softball questions.

How many could they of won with a competent offense?? There's the difference between good and great.
We don't need competent. That sounds like average. We just need below average or bad.
The fallout from this disastrous season will be seen before signing day in December, with or without the current staff calling the shots.
If they stay... you'll see guys decommit. If they leave, you'll get some leaving as well.
Barta/KF have put the program in a short term "no win" situation.
Just another illustration of a coaching staff staying a few years too long.

He was asked at least three different times and wouldn't say who the assistant was. I was unable to watch that time of the game. Who was the assistant in question?
Petras may be our best QB. That is an indictment of our coaches and their recruiting.

Apologies. My view was 1080p on a 70” screen. His eyes were watery and outlined in red.
That is true they are available….but let’s be honest….certain situations require different actions. Running a guy out in front of the media who is a whipping boy is setting a player up for failure. What good came out of Petras going in front of the media compared to what the message would have been sent to that locker room if Brian went out there instead?
I'm going to wager it was probably Brian as he has shown he can't control his temper before... but then again with him laughing after we lose and his responsibility played atrocious...IDK maybe it was Phil showing frustration... I would certainly understand where he is coming from.
I think the question that some gutsy reporter needs to ask Brian at a PC this week is, “What was so funny on the sideline.”
Definitely a terrible look, he will come up with some dumb excuse... Ultimately, this shiteshow is on the shoulders of Kirk and his stubborn arrogance will do nothing to stop it from getting worse.
Cooper DeJean should get some snaps at QB. As someone who watched him in high school, he’s accurate, he can evade, he can chuck the ball 50 yards in the air with ease, he can run and he’s a winner.
That's a question for Iowa athletics to answer. No one on the Iowa beat requested Spencer. We were not asked for players requests after the game, so Iowa made that decision. And we all knew Brian was going to be speaking early in the week as is tradition during a bye week.
Why can't the media follow up his 10 games response with our offensive ranking last year and point out that we win despite our poor offense not because of it? That would be the obvious follow up question to that response
And you’ve only scored 6 offensive touchdowns this season. Defense got four turnovers vs Illini and knocked out the starting qb. What more do you want the defense to do for your offense?
Oh, by the way tOSU scored seven offensive touchdowns today vs MSU. Good luck in that game KF.
football aside….that’s one impressive young man….anyone that boo’s him on senior day needs their ass kicked
@TomKakert reading the room of the other beat reporters, is there a sense that this year is different from any of the other years where the Hawks have performed poorly? Different as in more deflated, angry, etc...
By the way, I know how incredibly hard it has to be to ask questions of guys you all have worked so hard to gain trust from to answer questions honestly. Plus, you guys actually know the players personally and they seem like good guys. Rough year...
I don't get that feeling that it's really any different, but it has to be frustrating for the defense. Two games this year they gave up 10 and 9 points and that wasn't good enough for a win. They are allowing 9.8 points per game as a defense and this team is 3-3. With a somewhat below average offense they should be 5-1 this year. A historically bad one gets you to 3-3.
This. Just because it's always been done one way does mean it's the right way. (That applies to our offense approach too)
Are the Ferentz's aware that it IS historically bad? And that it's directly a result of questionable coaching choices and lack of addressing the offense in any meaningful way?
I'm sure they are well aware. It's not like they have their head in the sand. I know some of you think that's the case, but they know the offense is a mess right now.
I know folks don't like it, but Kirk revealed how he views things and it's the way I have been tell folks from years how he views things. His response to the question last night about changes was essentially, "We won 10 games last year." I get that last year was last year, but the bottom line is coming into this season Iowa was 26-9 the last three years. They were 19-8 in Big Ten games and won the Big Ten West last season. From Kirk's perspective going into this season what was broke? Football is a bottom line business and he's hired to do three things, win football games, run a clean program, and win games...ok that's two, but you get my point. Winning matters above all else. Always has an always win. Winning isn't a beauty contest either. Many times it's ugly. Again, I am just sharing an alternate viewpoint. Not making any sort of case or excuses or taking up for Kirk. I completely get why fans are frustrated because right now this offense is hard to watch and that's probably being kind.
Absolutely feel for SP. Seems like such a good guy, seems like a good on-field leader, very committed. He just doesn't have the ability to put whatever he's able to do during practices onto the field on gameday.
From a parent of a contributing defensive player. They said the offense was bad after camp. I held out hope that things would not be as bad as it sounded.
It is worse.
Regardless of what is put out at interviews and how everyone is saying the right things….tensions are high towards the offensive side.

It's not something I carry around in my back pocket to pull out at a post game presser. Kirk's right. Winning matters. It's the ultimate trump card. Plenty of offensive wizards who coach teams that put up points get fired if they don't win.
I mean, this is HISTORICALLY bad offense - coached by Kirk's son!!
Why would the media NOT want to remind the head coach that his son runs one of the worst offenses on the planet and isn't even remotely responsible for the ten games won last year??
Seems like a follow-up question regarding Brian's awful performance(s) is common sense.
Hard to watch and developing more and more apathy every week. By Nebraska, not many people will truly be “in to it.” Just an excuse to day drink. Like golf. Or fishing.
he would just say you win as a team complimentary football, etc so what's the point. We all know what he will say.
‘Coach, are you aware that 101 FBS receivers have caught more touchdown passes than your entire offense?’
or 153 have the same or more.
or 153 have the same or more.
I have not watched Ferentz press conferences in 15 years because he is boring and really says nothing IMO.
My follow up would be....if the goal is really to win games... why wouldn't you fix your offense years ago? The ceiling of this program would be significantly higher. Look how high it has gotten consecutively despite an offense
