Also. LOL that Chip Kelly did in fact call Kirk and had a serious discussion about being Iowa's OC. That actually legitimately happened and it is wild. Board INSIDERS knew about it but nobody could actually believe it.
and you know that Kirk wasn't interested

Correct, that was exactly the word. Chip called, wanted to talk to him about being the OC, Kirk listened but ultimately thought it was a bit crazy and he of course didn't fit in what Iowa does.

Nuts that it actually happened.

If you are UCLA, immediately go all in on the flash but with a Big Ten twist and hire PJ Fleck as your Head Coach and Scott Frost as your OC.

They might actually build a powerhouse and be better than USC if they did this.

Ohio State is also just flat out all in on buying a National Championship this year. They paid millions and millions and millions for the guys they just got in the transfer portal and signed. Now they get Chip Kelly for likely a massive record setting OC salary.

Michigan and Harbaugh really got under their skin.

And Day will fuck it up resulting in him leaving for another job.

Ohio State has to win @Oregon early in the season. If they can do that, their next toughest game is @Penn State followed by Iowa at home.

I would list Michigan at home, but they are going to historically butt-fuck them. The rest of their schedule is a joke.

it’s more than that. Chip literally wanted the Iowa OC job.

Kirk needs to be stopped.

They'd need some major changes in their athletic department to do that.

Sounds like that was a big part of the issue for Kelly on top of hating recruiting.

Chip is a significant downgrade from BoB

Really makes me dislike Kirk. An explosive offensive with a stifling defense is orgasmic. It’s a major shame that senile old fuck couldn’t see that after being blinded by his dipshit son.

so i'm assuming :
1. there was a buyout
2. iowa/kirk would not want to pay that buyout. zero issues for oh state

we could get lester on the cheap
“not a good style fit”

ok, I guess I’ll take the FUCKING OHIO STATE JOB then.

Not on this one actually, but let's say that Kirk did hire him. Iowa doesn't have and wouldn't have the pieces that are needed to run that offense. Chip Kelly is also a flake and it's likely that after Iowa pays a huge buyout and then a $2m+ salary for him, he decides that being in Iowa City sucks and moves on to something else the next year.

It wasn't ever going to work even if it did happen.

What a possible feather in the cap though. Think about it. The highly publicized awful, worse in the country, offense....only to be rejuvenated in a very public way? You get that too a top 50 and you're back on top.

Let's also not forget Chip Kelly has fucking sucked everywhere for years now.

I think Oregon beats them early but they beat Oregon in the championship game.

Coe College is going to need a new WR coach. I’m hearing Marvin McNutt was hired as the head football coach at Keokuk High School. :roll:

I cannot believe that he is coming to Keokuk. You should have seen the dipshit that was coaching there last. There is not much talent in the area. Great hire by them. It is just weird to me.

Does that gig pay more than being a position coach at Coe?
