Too much? I just want Iowa to act like, you know, a normal major university. Today was a step in the right direction even if it was weird and unprecedented.

Kirk's contact runs through 2030 and the buyout is pretty massive. The 'coach in waiting' theory is neat and all, but I don't think it works like that in real life.

Is this the part where we get all weepy and nostalgic about good old Kirk?
Not for me. I've advocated for his departure for a few years now. That hasn't changed. He's still a person who's responsible for a lot of joy in my life in his heyday, and it's a bummer he's got a big shit-sandwich to eat in front of the cameras tomorrow, is all I was saying. Sad it's come to this. It's not unjust, but still sad.

This is actually the most un-Iowa like development we've had in awhile so I'll take it even if there's still an Iowa like hint of retardation by allowing him to stay. I love Kirk even if he is stubborn and stupid on a lot of things. I'd like to see him go out on the highest note possible. He's brought way more joy than misery to my Saturdays over the years even if it doesn't feel like it recently. Brian can eat my shit. He's had every opportunity handed to him on a golden platter to figure it out.

Seriously, @douglasbader i will pull the pro-caliber @BBK type of action for your prognostication.

Doug is God.

But puts today would have been dumb as fuck, bro. Idiot.

No more Brian >>> millions of dollars in the bank

I feel bad for KF. He was so great for so long, but he's fucked it up the last few years b/c of Brian. I really do feel bad he's gotta go out and do that press conference tomorrow. Victim of his own hubris, I guess. But still sad to see.
I believe it's called karma.

The entire situation has been a master class on the failure of leadership. It's led to Iowa becoming a national punchline as it squandered a few generationally good defenses. And is heading towards a truly sad ending for a coach that should be a HOF'er. Instead of being a great coach and an even better human, that was an amazing representative for the University...there is a decent chance this ends pretty poorly.

It's like the family member that almost everyone has that just kept finding a way to F up their own life.
Lol. So kf has a chance of not being a decent person or good representation of the university over this? Is that correct?

obviously this is tarnishing the end of his career but my god you’ve been dramatic throughout this.

What's your stance on Fran again? Aren't you a big fan of his?

Big ol feminist here, but I gotta say, this is reactionary and reeks of some female insecurity. Seems destined to cost us the last west title.

Good for social media dorks, bad for the team.
Oh no, the worst OC in cfb finding out that he will be looking for a new job next year will surely hurt the offense.

Does haloman -a man drunk on a certain kind of social media mind you, believe the players are going to feel the same way most fans do? And that this isn’t a needless distraction since there was no way he was coming back next year? Because that would be really stupid.

Saban will probably hire Brian as his next second chance coach reclamation project and BF will go on to coordinate two national title offe……

😂, who am I kidding. I have a better shot at having sex with Ana De Armas than that does of happening.

Most people, including me, thought there was no way he was coming back this year. I was wrong, very very wrong.

It seems weird that I would have to spell out or specifically state that comment was about his legacy or how he will be remembered

Calling me "dramatic" when you're being intentionally obtuse about the point being made is...something...

The "needless distraction" has been going on for at least 2 years. This way, there's an end in sight and shows there's someone in charge who can make the tough calls and expects better results.

Again, I know it makes you feel better. But I'm concerned with how the actual, you know, players on the team feel for this to happen in the middle of the season.

I know you can only imagine they feel the same way about him as you do, but I'd be shocked if that were actually the case.
