No but you give no credence to it being year 2 in his system, poor wr's, his track record, JVB being awful or anything. Texas fans hated him so we were going to hate him too.

Trot out all the stats you want and you have a case. I'm just willing to see the product on the field after a full offseason.

Maybe I'm either more patient or less passionate of a fan. I just think you need to have a beer with me sometime.

I'll certainly admit it was all JVB if it turns out to be the case and the offense is successful/productive this season, I just think there are reasons (expressed ad nauseum) to be dubious - dubious enough to have pulled the plug and hit reset.

Yes, I'd enjoy sharing a beer at the NIU game. Hold the roofies

Jesus. I doubt Morgan would be getting fired. Is he retiring?

Reese leaving isn't a great sign, IMO (he doesn't likely hang them up if he thinks the program is on the cusp of very good), but at least another shot for the staff to get younger.

Those were probably our three best recuriters (not that that's saying a ton) so that part is kind of a bummer. Morgan is the only surprising one. Erb's been rumored to be on the way out for months, and I've heard Wilson was upset about not getting the DC job. Morgan and Kirk seemed really tight, but maybe he didn't want to coach DL.

pretty sure Erb was in charge of the return portion of special teams that so often sucked (especially with punts). he also coached WRs when every WR ever left and RBs the last few years (when every RB ever left) and was somehow immune to criticism on that front.

No way Morgan leaving impacts the two big instate commitments. However, Iowa again being a dogshit team might.

That's great news. Hopefully a fresh set of eyes will keep Tanner Miller on the sidelines. Really hope Reese doesn't leave.

I wonder if they'll give the special teams job to one guy or continue to split it.

Kakert is openly stating that Erb and Campbell were told to look for other jobs/ they would not be retained, etc. Does not sound like Morgan is gone.

Was Brian brought in before that piece of shit Greg Davis? I'm sort of hoping that Brian is the key ingredient behind this house cleaning. I hate Greg Davis but at least it seems like Kirk is cognisant of the issues/concerns surrounding the program. Maybe this is a good sign? I'll withhold my complete judgment by who he brings on board to replace these guys but this is at least giving me a little hope. I can only hope we see one more season of Greg Davis and then Brian takes the reigns.

If Greg Davis retreads are hired to replace Campbell and Erb, I think it's safe to assume Davis was behind the changes on that side of the ball.

Now the question is how incredibly long can Ferentz drag his feet on hiring 3-4 coaches. Will they even be hired by Spring Ball? That is about a month away. Given that the WR coach has been out of here for at least 2 months with no replacement, I am not confident.

I think what Kirk is doing is trying to merge the Iowa stretch play running game with Davis' shitty passing system and develop some new wave offense that Brian can take credit for.

other than a white walkon who should be playing DIII, Kirk loves him some old fired assistants more than anything.

I do think he'll have all the spots filled by the time practices start - I'm much more worried about who he fills them with. If he goes 3 for 3 with older, fired from last job guys, that's going to be disappointing

What if they are also acquaintances of GDGD? That would go beyond sucking to the point of non-renewal.

someone like jim reid is fine. you cant hire all young guys with limited contacts and recruiting experience. many UVA fans seem to think that he was a fall guy anyways.

Does the University require that the positions be made publicly available for x # of days like when the coordinator positions opened up or can assistants be hired in a more timely fashion?

Yeah you're right. He's always done that when you think of it. But you seem to be implying there's a reason for it other than trying to find the perfect candidate.

I would have liked him to kick those guys out and hire right away. You never know if some recruits wouldn't have flipped to iowa. Erb and Soup were not recruiting so whats the fucking point of keeping them around?

He only wants to make one announcement/talk about it once?

I do think he'll have all the spots filled by the time practices start - I'm much more worried about who he fills them with. If he goes 3 for 3 with older, fired from last job guys, that's going to be disappointing
someone like jim reid is fine. you cant hire all young guys with limited contacts and recruiting experience. many UVA fans seem to think that he was a fall guy anyways.
Right, but we're likely getting Jim Reid AND Bobby Kennedy. If Erb's replacement is some other guy "who coached with Greg Davis before," or even some other guy in his 40s or older who was fired from his last job, that will be severely disappointing, IMO.
