I understand it. It's just irrational.
We’ve had dozens of posters over the years act as if the only alternative available to Iowa’s terrible offense, is the full blown air raid… And throwing at 600 times a season

there are times where it’s sort of. Feels like Kirk thinks the same thing.

Let me save everyone some time here.

Not one fucking person with any substance has reported that the lawsuit is keeping anyone from getting hired or fired or anything. It is a made up thing that some poster or some dork on twitter speculated about and for roughly a year people keep mentioning it as if it is a real thing.

It's not. Stop repeating it.

Who keeps mentioning it?
I’m not going to specifically search for it, but anytime we get excited about Brian possibly GTFO that seems to be the reason that he won’t. I honestly have no idea if it’s a legit issue or not.

It's not. It is something that some fool mentioned in pure speculation and since then everyone has played the telephone game and keeps repeating it.

Holy shit, it was that dipfuck @BuffettHawk who started all of it. He mentioned it and then ever since you morons have been acting like he was speaking as if he knew anything.

I doubt anything changes with Brian until the lawsuit is resolved, and it isn’t scheduled to go to trial until March 2023 (not that it can’t go away sooner).
The lawsuit needs to go away before Brian gets a job elsewhere. An NFL team might take him on as a low level assistant, but no college team will touch him until the lawsuit is resolved.

There was a caller on SoundOff after the Illinois game that said that the only reason Spencer Petras continues to start is because the Ferentz family is worried he will become a hostile witness in the lawsuit if he is replaced. Lolololololol.

I have a bet with my neighbor for dinner at a local restaurant regarding Brian being gone. He believes he isn't going anywhere, so I will need Douglas' address to send the bill if I lose.

If he gets the NFL job, he’s 110% gone. Everything hinges on that

If you lose the bet, just don't let him order the soup. He'll claim it's not really a meal and you'll have to take him out a second time.

He’s going to be at Iowa next year. I hope I’m wrong and have no idea in what capacity but I was told by Levar Woods family directly that he isn’t going anywhere.
So it comes down to who you believe, Levar Woods, or Douglas?

Kirk and Brian blamed the lack of offensive success on the personnel, saying they did the best they could with what they had.

It’s setting up pretty clearly for them to say that they used the portal to address the lack of talent when they get asked next year why the offense continues to suck and no changes were made.

Kirk should ask Fran if Ogundele is available since Fran has no interest in utilizing the post players he recruited and got in the portal.

Still hearing Brian is gone, but at this point it might be more fun to have him back and watch him PWN the shit out of everyone.

Should be fun!!!!!

If the rumors of Brian to NE are true, why would Iowa announce he is gone (from Kirk’s point of view) and not just wait for NE to announce he is hired? Now that NE didn’t make the playoffs, they can start their coaching changes. Hopefully, that includes Brian.

I refuse to believe Brian will be back. I think he’s a prideful fella, coming back, in any capacity, strikes me as an incredible lack of pride.

The guy who created and routinely scripted a play for Spencer Petras to sprint out left to throw the ball to a WR standing at the line of scrimmage is going to show us all.

Nobody with any amount of pride would have that haircut year after year

If BriDawg doesn’t have another job lined up, a going away party, and a thoughtfully curated gift basket + signed card, how can he possibly leave his current position?
