Brian Ferentz named Offensive Coordinator

[Revolver]

If nothing else, Brian Ferentz is a Hawkeye. He is also a very competitive person and you can see that when he is coaching. I have told this story before, but at the Rose Bowl on the final drive of the game where the team was putting together a nice drive. Got deep into Stanford territory and turned it over.

When that happened Brian flipped a row of benches over on the sideline. Was it immature? Absolutely.

But we were getting our asses handed to us and he expected to score on what was a meaningless drive for all intents and purposes.

The guy wants to win. He wants to be great. He has received praise from his father, Bill O'Brien and Bill Belichick. His position group was just named the best in the nation.

I like everything about this hire and think we are going to see improvement immediately.

@Everyone better get on record here. No "starting to be in favor of him" only to change your tune down the road. Anyone against this hire - Reveal Yourselves!

first thing to reevaluate is who your QB and QB coach are.

Here’s the thing.
In my defense, what I meant to say was…I have a tee time lads. Be back later

I hope you shank every single tee shot and arrive home to a cacophony of Stinky bows

This really grinds my gears because I can guarantee you with 100% certainty that he's never once had a moment of self-reflection or doubt.

So far Brian has already mentioned the passing game complementing the run game and used the word flexibility several times.

Fuck

So do I get to pick whose semen and whose shit I get to eat or is it a mix of the 4 together?

I think most of us can be excused because we were so happy that anyone other than Greg Davis was the OC and Brian seemed to be progressive and KOK was coming back to help and run more of the the TE stuff.

Whoops.

I would like to submit exhibit A Douglas why a 12 year old with and X Box couldndesign and call plays.

this is a shit show on so many fucking levels.

I think Brian will do fine

There’s lots of people with embarrassing quotes in this thread but he’s the only one dumb to do the self quote victory lap today, while this was just lurking there.

Wrong at the time and you're a piece of shit.

He’s been in the job for five years, and I still couldn’t tell you what Brian wants his offense to be.

I love this move

How do I bow myself?

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Lots of crunches

Either that or you are now deeming it excusable because you were in the group that was wrong.

Honestly, Fabby seems to be one of like (3) people able to figure out the broken ass search function on this f’n site…so I sort of do appreciate his work

I heard that BF interview above in its entirety when it came out (i.e. 11/17/21), and while I know he's limited on what he can say during a big gameweek, my sense is that he's already become a bit of a fat cat. Parphrasing from memory:

"Our offensive woes are frustrating...on some level."

"We're making big strides"

"Listen, I'd like to light up the scoreboard and be a genius, sure, but that's not really my role."

Then there was all the stuff about how football is a game of inches and execution, the difference between Goodson getting 8 yards or 1.

I'm not real sure what he can say that's encouraging, but none of it inspired much confidence, imo.
