Season ending press conference?

Just wondering if and when there will be one.Wondering who the three players who missed the bowl trip.Terrance Harris and??And their future at Iowa.

I think there should be. It would be nice to pay homage to the teams accomplishments this season but also address & acknowledge the poor bowl performances over the last 4 trips. Being outscored a combined 98-0 in the first half of the last 4 outings is a trend. Like to see KF and the program thinking about this in the off season.. There's a programmatic issue there. We need to see major improvement on our next one.

The one "tough" question I'd have for Kirk is how does getting dominated in two straight bowls happen?

There also needs to be acknowledgement of the shift next year to being the hunted vs the hunter. The Stanford game represents that shift where an opponent looks at us as a ranked opponent and plays a manufactured disrespect card. Just as importantly uses the opportunity for a victory as motivation to justify their own program.

As we can see with this last game and we know from past history we are very uncomfortable in this role as a program under KF. We are often unprepared, especially mentally & emotionally to handle success. We bask on being the underdog and playing with a chip. It's part of the type of player we recruit. We have 12 Stanford disrespect / target us games coming next year. Get ready to deal with that from a preparation stand point now as you can see this coming a mile away. All we have to do is look back at the meltdown of 2010. Tell me we have learned from this?
