I think he is more speaking about how both teams played their best and Iowa still lost. If he felt that they somehow they hadn't played their best he wouldn't feel this way.
I seriously feel like people are just nitpicking anything and everything. At this point Kirk can't do anything right in some fans eyes. People just need to calm down. This coaching staff is going to be here for another year, so just get over it. Lets wait and see for another football season.
This fan base lives and dies off of wins and losses (and this season ended pretty badly). Doesn't anyone else remember how many people called for Fran to be fired halfway through this basketball season then they ended up having the best season in almost a decade? Ferentz is here for another year guaranteed so lets sit back and see what he can do.
No matter what he says, the fanbase won't be happy. Especially internet b1tches.
I don't think he is saying we should be happy, his point is that there is nothing he could say to make us happy. It is pointless to complain about him saying exactly what we expect him to say.
Until they win, we are mad. Nothing else matters in respect to Iowa football right now.
Because you're an Iowa fan g** damn it!Would love to hear why we should be happy?
Anyone thinking they are more frustrated than him, or the staff has screws loose.
Not true in the slightest.
"I am stepping down as head football coach for the University of Iowa. As much as I love the football program, I no longer see myself able to contribute the necessary time and effort to run a successful football program. I have accepted a restructured settlement with Gary that allows me to retire for 10% of my remaining buyout and have committed to help with future fundraising events for the Athletics Department and University of Iowa Children's Hospital. Please help me in welcoming the new football coach for the University of Iowa, Bob Stoops."
I would be very ecstatic.
Typical heat dawg post. I shouldn't bother, but I will.No you wouldn't. YOu are a miserable little dude that spends his whole life complaining. If KF did exactly what you said you would be here bitching it took so long and how it will take years to recover. You won't be happy with anything. I can guarangoddamntee you that. You've posted enough since KF's comment that gave your name, your 250th name I might add.
You can't be happy. You have no idea what that concept is even like. I'm sure there is some psychology there that would fascinate somebody but to me you are just hysterical. A funny little angry SOB.

So you are saying they hire you?Bozo the clown could run a better football program than this guy.
So you are saying they hire you?
Better stick to cock fighting eddie!I would have the best players on the field and I would learn from any mistake that may occur instead of being a stubborn a**. Frankly I would coach circles around Kurt.
Iowa's decline has coincided with the rise of Minnesota.
I have to really laugh at some of you bozos on here. I have lived through the years that Iowa searched for a coach half as good as KF and I watch schools that have much more natural recruiting grounds than Iowa doing it now. I can 't say KF doesn't drive me crazy some times and Davis even more but car3eful what you wish for because the chance of getting a better coach is about 10% and each time we try after that it will get worse. The only reason we got HF to come to Iowa was the over loyal fan base and judging from this board I think that's gone.Better stick to cock fighting eddie!

Demonstrably fallacious.
Iowa has had a better or equal record than Minnesota every single year since 2001, with the following exceptions:
2012 Iowa 4-8 Minnesota 6-7
2014 Iowa 7-6 Minnesota 8-5
All you've "risen to" is the same level of mediocrity that Iowa has been experiencing for the last 5 years. The two programs have not been on this equal of footing in 35 years. Minnesota has only "risen" to this level over the last 2 years, while Iowa has been stuck in this rut for the last 5.
What has actually killed Iowa are the ascension of Wisconsin and Michigan State. Those programs have actually accomplished things, something that Minnesota still hasn't done since the '60s.
This is an interesting statistic and would love to see your link for this. I'm sure there is an overwhelming amount of data, right?I have to really laugh at some of you bozos on here.

Consistently? Hell, Kirk can't even beat them 50% of the time.So we as fans are supposed to be happy that KF admits he played a fullback at runningback for 3 years? Supposed to be happy that "its not about wins/losses, but how the game goes," or "at least you can go home at night and sleep," after losing a game they should of won. Or "thats football", "the ebbs and flows." Or the QB situation over the past year, don't think you can fumble that one any worse. What about we're a developmental program because we can't recruit top players.
Please tell me why fans should be happy? Sorry at least we're not ISU, oh wait, can't even beat them consistently anymore.
So your saying they have been better than us 2 out of the last 3 years. Just sayin...
Not going to get into which program surpassed who on such and such date argument, but should point out with the bolded part they played a much tougher schedule than us last year which included TCU and Ohio State. They also beat us by damn near 40 when we played them (could have been much worse) . When comparing the two teams last year, there was more to it than just "beating us by one game last year".Yes, they beat us by one game last year, and the other year, both teams finished under .500 (and we actually beat them on the field).
Just sayin.

So we are 1-2 vs Minn over the last 3 years. Just saying...
Doesn't matter how you slice it. Minn has been better than us
