lol at Kirk refusing the fist bump. Kinda respect it.
Bo did it in 21 seasons with less games and 10 rose bowl appearances
True, but for any Iowa head coach to get there (in just 4 more seasons than Bo) is still very remarkable.
I wonder if he cheated on the level that Harbaugh does?
Honestly, as far as Big 10 coaches Bo and Joe Paterno were in a class of their own. I’m not sure there was anyone in the country better than those two at protecting sexual predators. GOAT pervert programs.
Go suck off a Michigan fan. Nobody--except you, of course--cares.
??? Is Kirk coaching at Michigan or OSU? With their recruiting advantages? Apples to watermelons. Not to mention back in the B1G 2 little 8 days, (before Fry challenged the league with the pass game), Bo and Woody played a whole bunch of SHIT teams in the conference EVERY year. Thats a fact....
The acknowledgement of the accomplishment isn’t to necessarily say Kirk is better, though if you really want to dig in and parse things out, Schembechler (and also Woody Hayes) and some pretty significant built-in advantages and also racked up a lot of wins in weaker Big 10 conferences.
Nah…you’re just being an asshole and you know it. Must suck to be so miserable you feel the need to bring other people down with you.
Oh my, I brought no one down. If you are that fragile, maybe you shouldn't be on this site
You hate KF. KF just keeps winning and it pisses you off. Lolol
Show me on the doll where Kirk Ferentz hurt you.
FACTS without some context mean little. Using the 70's to 90's B1G that Bo and Woody coached in where most of the league was crap vs the current one where many of those teams are markedly more competitive then they were then. Also Kirk plays against Michigan, and OSU not for them. We may not play them every year, but Kirk has been around 50/50 against Michigan, AND PSU who was not in the B1G2/little 8. Wisconsin is WAY better now then they were then, WAY better, NW and Minny are much better consistently then in the little 8, on down the line. For a stretch when Dantonio was at MSU they were damn good, and he and Kirk had some great battles. Remember you can't just look at teams like Wisconsin this year, but over the last 2 decades.
Facts , don't piss me off like some people. I love seeing my Hawkeyes win. Do I think KF could have done more on the offensive side of the ball, absolutely. KF doesn't even have a 62% win ratio to get into the Hall of Fame. So yes I called out his longevity. Facts are facts
KF has had some of the weakest schedules in all of college football in his time at the helm. As for the 70s thru the 90s I'd have to disagree with you there. Maybe the 70s but 80s and 90s no way
Hey, the formula for Kirk works except when you need points. A tweaked offense and all fans are united that KF is legendary. Kirk, make a great OC hire and let’s enjoy a 3-4 year run! 🙏🏽
Again we are talking about conference schedules, since this is about conference wins only. My point being the gap between Michigan and OSU and the rest of the B1G for much of that time was quite large, and you're trying to compare that to the gap between Iowa and the rest of the league. To me THAT is context. I've said this before, but I just don't think that if you really compare the players we are able to recruit, and all the other intagibles, that Iowa really starts from absolutely NO better point A) if you will at the beginning of the season with point B) being the final record, and yet we win more then most of our conference counterparts. That IS coaching to me, plain and simple. Putting it another way, I don't think Iowa is any better really then Minnesota, Wisconsin, Nebraska, NW, Indiana, Purdue, PSU, MSU, or Illinois, and yet we win consistently more then any of them except Wisconsin until recently.
I truly don’t say this lightly. You’re a moron.
