Verducci is an offensive analyst. Since analysts can’t work directly with players it’s up to the HC to set the workplace rules. If they don’t need to see them on a daily basis it works out. Verducci’s family lived in the IC the entire time after he left the Iowa staff as far as I can tell.
Unlike true assistant coaches, it's my understanding that analysts actually do get days off.
It'd take Brian 3 hours to clear a 20 yard driveway
I’ll bet Biff hasn’t touched a lawnmower or snow shovel in his entire fat life.
You don't think a little beef help Brian be an all-league performer at O-line for your Hawkeyes?
What did Brian do to deserve to be called a coach?
He coached the O-line for a few years, he helped out with TE’s at New England….and he knows one helluva lot more about football and theory than you could ever hope to know.
And he’s also going to go down in history as the worst power 5 offensive coordinator in modern football history.
LOL. If shoveling snow and mowing the lawn turned someone into an All-B1G athlete, I would have broken every one of Archie Griffin's records...
he was a pretty versatile position coach. did well as OL coach and as RB coordinator also. neb would be getting great deal. wish we would've moved him to the ol spot to replace the suboptimal guy we have.
You can't credit him with NE. If he was he'd been hired 4 times
And he will forever be known as the coach that fielded the worst Iowa offenses for multiple years. Obviously his football “IQ” is higher than any of us, but at least I don’t have that following me around the rest of my life lol.
I don’t care how good he is at OL coach, there is no way in hell having that distraction continue to be on the sideline at Iowa would ever have been a good thing. He needed to be shit canned.
don’t disagree but it would be so much easier to stomach him as a position coach at ne if we had a half as effective option coaching our ol
He’d clear the adjacent yard before he completed the vertical length of the driveway.
If you think KF would ever throw a game your stupid beyond belief. Additionally, how do you know they’re bitter? I think he lets things roll off his back and keeps moving forward
Absolutely I’d be confident with him doing that. As long as he doesn’t have to call plays or address defensive tendencies or anything else associated with running an offense. I would have much rather have him be the next head coach at iowa, than ever have him call another offensive play as coordinator.
I see your stance on HC but this guy at the D1 level put up games of 66 yards, 76 yards, and 150 against an FCS school. You would be ok with him being an analyst for your football team?
I don't understand any of this.
My rational being that Brian is such a bad offensive coordinator, I would have done anything to move him from that spot, even if that meant moving him to head coach. Anything to get him out of the offensive coordinator spot.
Yea. Probably. He strikes me as the kind of coach that is pretty smart, but just doesn’t understand the art of calling plays in a game.
I think everyone has equal contempt toward KF and BF regarding this fiasco. And I don't think people blame BF for taking and keeping his job; it's more about his being a pompous ass and having the "my sh*t don't stink" attitude throughout the whole thing, knowing that the only reason he was employed was because of his old man and the gelding Iowa had for an AD.
Again, Brian might go down as the worst offensive coordinator in power five history. But can he be an analyst?!? Idk
IDK either. He was a good position coach. I just wouldn't take a run at him on anything other than that. Then again, maybe it's well known that KFz is the ultimate governor on the Iowa offense...as he always has been. Hard to be a great chef when you're told you can only use certain ingredients.
