[KitKatApples]

No. No we do not

 

[BBK]

By the way, Bert still has a higher overall winning percentage and Big Ten Conference winning percentage than Kurt, by a significant margin.

 

[douglasbader]

C'mon, Dougie. You don't want to see my man Bert patrolling the Kinnick sidelines with his big ol' dicky doo?

Not unless he is a position coach.

Coached LBs for Hayden and Kurt before. I would welcome him back with very open arms (because he's rotund).

Ferentz and him don't get along. He won't ever coach a position at Iowa.

He also needs at least a year to work on the doo. Get about 80 pounds off and he will look much better.

Been there, bought the 44x30 pants from Target.

 

[BBK]

I didn't know he's from Prophetstown. I used to go out there for wrestling now and then, it is basically still the QC.

I knew there was a reason I like the guy.

 

[KitKatApples]

That's some good size pants right there

Vile. Disgusting.

 

[BBK]

When you are fat as fuck, the only places you can shop are the giant department stores like that. Target is as nice as it gets really, as your other alternatives are Walmart and Kmart.

What? Kirk and Bert used to get drunk the day before the game every year.

LOL this is really dumb.

Srsly, they could use a vet to help phil (who i love as a position coach) another vet to talk to for gameplanning

They are adding the 10th coach in a few months.

I know, just saying a veteran defensive guy would be good to get. Hopefully not a rotund person.

 

[BBK]

I hope it's Bert.

I hope it's Bert.

As long as he looses some weight and wears less polyester I am all for it

First time you've had a problem with something that's loose.

He should get even fatter

Did you ever buy the khakis with elastic so they could stretch bigger?

Asking for a friend.

No, but we were nearing that danger zone the next step up I believe.

I can’t even imagine a 44.

I was 6’2” 295 and I was certain my next step was going to earn me a grabber. Even then I was a 40.

You dodged a bullet. That size at that age....you were swelling your arteries big time.

Yes, it's a horrible thing when you're QB drops back, sees everyone covered, takes off and picks up a first down. It feels like cheating.

Man, I have seen those pre-flight tears from dozens of mujeres many times. Honestly, there is nothing better than a beautiful girl who can't wait to get you back.

God bless beautiful women.

I'm sure we were all really pissed when CJ made the big runs in Ames in '15, gave Koehn the shot at the Pitt FG the next week and dove for the TD at Indiana.

 

[Mo T]

CJ also doesn't have the arm that Stanley has. That will be more important than scrambling ability.

 

[Geese]

Just because Stanley hasn't had big runs like CJ doesn't mean he isn't mobile.

Iowa had a ridiculous schedule.

Wyoming - 8 wins
Iowa State - 8 wins
North Texas - 9 wins
Penn State - 11 wins
Michigan State - 10 wins
Northwestern - 10 wins
Ohio State - 12 wins
Wisconsin - 13 wins
Purdue - 7 wins
Boston College - 7 wins

Average of 8.25 wins per team overall with everything included.

Illinois was the only true cupcake. Still had to play a 5 win Minnesota and at Nebrantska. Getting 8 wins out of that schedule might be one of Ferentz's best coaching jobs. Throw in a last second loss by inches to #4 Penn State, overtime road loss to Northwestern without Jewell, 1 possession loss at Michigan State and all of the injuries and that is a pretty good season. They are going to have a chance to make some noise next year.

I guess you are taking Wisconsin tonight.

There is a chance but losing the linebackers, Jackson and wadley are going to hurt. If there are growing pains on the defensive side it could snowball out of control early. Phil HAS to use the DL to his advantage next year to help the back seven. I fear that won’t be the case

 

[L. Wade Childress]

 

[The Full Monte]

Lolololol

 

[Mo T]

Extend until 2030 before he leaves.

 

[FrodoTBaggin]

Why does Kirk's name even come up anymore? It's just dumb.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

 

[AZmessDAWG]

He gone

 

[UnKnOwN_SeRb]

I knew it!!!

 

[CamelTones]

I expect AJ to take a major step forward next season similar to what Clayborn and Ballard did in 2008. Gholston also rotated in more in the bowl game. They’re bringing in Nixon and only lose Bazata. We also heard good things about Brandon Simon last spring. They’ve always said they want 7-8 guys to rotate up front and for the first time ever they actually have more able bodies than that.

The drop off at LB in ‘14 was bad but Iowa also didn’t have defensive ends like they will next year.

The difference between 7-8 wins and 10 wins next year could depend on the growth of Smith-Marsette, Smith, Young and if Quarrells actually plays. They need more deep passes to someone other than Fant.
