New OC

[Saul Berkley]

So is this OC going to get hired before spring?

 

[WizardHawk]

No shit, THAT is the fucking solution. Fire the worthless OL coach as well and get Philbin to coach the OL and Chryst can be the OC/QB coach.

Everyone wins.

I could potentially forgive Kirk for keeping Brian around 3 yrs too long if he were to pull this off.

Damn. I thought it was going to be Harbaugh.

 

[iowa4ever20]

According to Wiki, Chryst is now the head coach at Iowa.

 

[CleteyColgate]

That's nice

He's the WR coach for the Saskatchewan Rough Riders.

Oh thought he was at uni

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

3 2 1 until nolook wonders about how David Raih is doing as Vanderbilt's offensive coordinator and he's a candidate.

 

[Harlan]

Oh thought he was at uni

For a season.

 

[Alan Lomax]

wtf is the hold up on this?

 

[Lee Beevers]

wtf is the hold up on this?

Not sure

 

[thrawn]

wtf is the hold up on this?

concern about lack of women candidates, I’m hearing

 

[Hawkstrat]

wtf is the hold up on this?

Evidently the person offered will have to officially apply. NIL guy says he think it'll be 7-10 more days until this is wrapped up.

 

[turtley78]

wtf is the hold up on this?

I’m sure every morning cup of Folgers is accompanied by an agonizing pros and cons list.

 

[thrawn]

Frontrunner has some problematic Tweets about Palestine

 

[WizardHawk]

wtf is the hold up on this?

KF and BF are still saying their goodbyes and it’s tough to do.

 

[Gushawk]

lmao. only at iowa.

 

[Lee Beevers]

lmao. only at iowa.

I’d be stunned if this was an Iowa only thing. Can someone please DTOFR?

 

[Hawkstrat]

I doubt that specific detail is unique to Iowa. But, the relaxed nature of this search, and allowing your dead man walking OC to finish the season, is pretty Iowa.

It's a state job. Have to follow the rules.

 

[MikeyJoe]

lol

 

[Gushawk]

I don't know the exact timeline, but Penn State had a new coordinator announced quite quickly. Same with aTm. I think our timeline is an outlier, and a retarded one at that.

 

[douglasbader]

The Iowa timeline is absolutely an outlier, but it has nothing to do with state laws or other bullshit. It's all Kirk.

This is how it was done 20+ years ago, and this is how he's going to it now. He did the same thing when hiring Phil Parker. He drug that one out into February.

 

[Gushawk]

Do other schools wait 7-10 days after actually making a selection to announce it? I suspect not, for whatever reason.

Hired Bri-dawg in three days though.

It’s too stupid to be true. The job needs to be posted for 14 days per the listing (which it has). It can’t take more than a half hour to fill out the application. It just too dumb to be true.

 

[Gushawk]

It's shockingly stupid, but the NIL guy (who doesn't seem to be a dipshit) apparently asserts it as fact.

 

[douglasbader]

Also, as I pointed out before, if whoever the finalists are are waiting this long that means they either REALLY want this job or they don't have any other options worth a shit.

I'm going to mostly think it is the latter, not the former given 2 of the reported finalists being Chryst and Philbin.

Ok, so? That doesn’t explain a delay. Here’s the link to the application. Spend the next twenty minutes filling it out. Done.

 

[Gushawk]

It's fucking Philbin, isn't it?

 

[thrawn]

If only they had known the job would be available 10 weeks ago

 

[nolookpass]

It's fucking Philbin, isn't it?

could be Chryst. Kirk has a soft spot for old, previously fired coaches.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

You know there is some douche bag in HR that loves applying all these rules.

just have someone sign an MOU and get on with it.

Even my most connected friends and relatives are like “we have no fucking idea what is taking so long”

 

[nolookpass]

It's Iowa. Prolly had to make sure a midget, a transexual and a person of color were interviewed. Knowing Kirk, he wants to find one person who would cover all three requirements.

Decades behind!

I believe he meant Kirk hasn't decided, not that there will be a 7-10 wait from applying to hire.

Kirk is an idiot if he hasn't decided yet.

Seems a little harsh. Maybe he wants to hire someone from Belichick's staff?
