They say he played piano like a kid out in the rain. Unfortunately, he lost his leg in Dallas whilst dancing with a train. Fucking idiot.

This is an obvious observation considering good QB play and a pass rush are the two most important things in determining who wins football games. You should have said...if Iowa can score more points than 8 teams they play next year, they'll win those 8 games.

Yes, we really were still that shitty despite a really good turnover margin that we probably won't enjoy again.

Interesting how Kirk and Paul Johnson have been on the same trajectory since the Orange Bowl.

This was very stupid to let him get away. Not kidding when I say that I would have much rather he got the Offensive Coordinator job at Iowa.

Quite possibly. Doesn't mean he can't come back shall a position open up though.

From what a couple of people have said, I think that he might be a little bit upset he was passed over for jobs by Ferentz.

This guy probably doesn't want to be a hawkeye. You're either with short option routes with no play action or against it.

[MikeyJoe]

We're pissed when Ferentz fills open positions by promoting from within, and we're pissed when he lets grad assistants leave. We're always pissed!!!1!

[L. Wade Childress]

i assume we planted raih at tech so he can come back and bring kingsbury in a few years.

seriously though, i am shocked raih left.

[Gushawk]

I assume he got a real position job at TT?

It says something about what KF/GD thought of him (or what he thought of them) that he wasn't promoted with Campbell's (and possibly Erb's) exit, though I've no idea what...

I'm most pissed about Greg Davis and anything that corroborates, even speculatively, his seemingly very large influence on the program.

+1. Yep, he was a smart coach from what I hear.

No, I'm pissed that we keep filling open positions by promoting guys like Parker, Erb, Wilson and keeping Greg Davis.

While it does show some lack of bringing in outside opinions, at least Riah, Woods and Brian Ferentz aren't 50+ years old and can recruit.

It looks like he didn't even get a real position, but more of an admin spot.

[Gushawk]

The opinions we now like, outside or otherwise, are those that match Greg Davis'. Kirk clearly has bought what he's selling - hook, line and sinker.

He had some very crazy ideas such as throwing the ball 20+ yards down the field and running 10 yard patterns on 3rd & 9.

[L. Wade Childress]

Coach Erb is being listed as a candidate for the syracuse OC job. he was a grad assistant there and earned his master's from syracuse.

Good, take AIRBHG with his ass.

[CamelTones]

Insider info!!!! Well not really, as this won't come as a shocker to any of you, but heard tonight that Wilson is really really unhappy right now. Really frustrated with the direction the team is going and that last year was one of the most frustrating ones he has ever coached (questionable decision making and play calling). Plus he was a little disappointed he wasn't given more of a chance at the DC spot (thank God).

[L. Wade Childress]

Does he realize that he is one of the main causes of our suck?

Oh noes!

[douglasbader]

Erb struck out on the Syracuse job. Wilson seems to be striking out as well. Johnson might not have even tried and is still very active in recruiting.

I don't think any of these fucks are going anywhere. They will all come crawling back to their $200k+ per year jobs and Ferentz will let them. We will change out the WR coach by hiring a guy who has just been canned at Texas and Colorado in his last 2 jobs.

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

Someone tell that terrible coach Wilson that he would have been canned by any other coach in American by now for his own shitty coaching, so he should shut his frickin' mouth and thank his lucky stars that his boss is a huge pussy dumbfuck.

This stupid mother fucker started Tanner Miller for an entire fucking year, Tom Donatell for most of the year, made Nico Law ride the bench until he finally let him play, then pulled him for little to no reason comparatively and decided to run Jack Swanson and Colin Sleeper out there instead.

Fuck him. He would be begging for change in the Ped Mall if any other coach in the entire fucking world was his boss. He has been given a $2.5 million plus benefits and a nice pension since he has been allowed to coach at Iowa.

[nolookpass]

lol

[hawkeyealum]

Its laughable that they are unhappy and looking new jobs but Kirk will welcome them back. How about you fire Erb and Wilson and give Erb or Soups job to fucking Raih. At least he wants a job.

[Gushawk]

It will be comical if Wilson and Erb return. Seems clear KF wanted them gone, or they don't believe in the direction of the program and want out, or both, yet somehow they remain. Along with Greg fucking Davis.

2013 Iowa Football - Another season on the ebb!

[The Dad]

Fuck it. Fire everyone. I can't fathom how stupid it would be to keep these guys around.

[hawkeyealum]

Guys looking for new opportunities is one thing (become an OC/DC/HC) but actively looking for anything because you openly dislike the direction of the program means Kirk should let them go.

[L. Wade Childress]

I have yet to hear a great reason why erb should be fired

[DGHawk]

To me that is not the point. If KF told these guys to look for another job and when they couldn't find one he took them back, that is a problem. This is based on the assumption/rumor that KF told these guys to look for another job, which I have a hard time believing.

[Gushawk]

Something is clearly going on with Wilson...a lot of smoke there, from multiple sources, in terms of him making it known that he isn't happy and is actively looking for something else. I'm frankly not sure how Kirk can abide that, even if he didn't encourage him to look.

The Erb rumors seem to have somewhat less substance, and the Johnson rumors even less.

show me some compelling evidence that Erb was being told to look around. I find it hard to believe.

Lol.

i suppose typing LOL was quicker than click-unclick-ctrl-C-ctrl-v

[douglasbader]

No, this is just L. Wade being L. Wade.

what are you basing this one besides unfounded comments from kakert and a bunch of guys going to nashville? (like they always do)

im not being a smart ass. if there is solid evidence of this then i havent seen it.

[douglasbader]

This is so fucking stupid. Given what you are asking for, this is the quintessential L. Wade being L. Wade.

[L. Wade Childress]

in other words, you really dont know. you are making a guess and expecting people to accept it as fact.

i dont know how a reasonable person could lump erb's performance in with wilson, but whatever.

[douglasbader]

Which is the EXACT thing you do all the fucking time. Did you forget that you get made fun of for doing this on a regular basis? You know, throwing shit out from sources, a guy you know, cousin of someone, second hand info from someone on the staff or in the Athletic Department?

That is the reason that I am saying it is the quintessential L. Wade being L. Wade. You are taking the exact opposite position from the one you often do yourself because it gives you more attention.

[L. Wade Childress]

hey you arrogant fucktard, i am taking the opposite position because i think Erb is a pretty good coach.

[Hawk4Life94]

Erb is a prick.

[Hawkeye_Pierce]

If these dudes really were out pounding the pavement looking for jobs, and Soup had one foot out the door for quite a while, is it any wonder that this year's recruiting class sits near the bottom of the conference?

Kirk really is a dumb fuck.
