**Official 2022 Iowa Football Season Thread**

[TVan]

At some point opposing coaches should be rediculed for losing to Iowa. If you can't put together a plan to stop the worst offense, knowing exactly what they are going to do, then you should be fired.

I picture opposing DC's like this guy...

You remember the scene in the movie where they are looking at the "coaching for dummies" book and giggling as the pound the Muddogs in the first half? Yea, that's how I picture opposing DC's. Someone better at it than me make that gif.

 

[nolookpass]

the last 2 games, when they should have ran some RB screens, they didnt.

 

[MikeyJoe]

You don't need to see the numbers, you just need eyes, to know how bad this offense is. But holy shit, some of the stats so far are astonishing.

They have attempted 17 screen passes, and completed 15 of them for a grand total of 19 yards.

It's hard to complete successful screen passes when the safety is standing next to the RB when he catches the ball.

I really really really fucking hope somebody reads that stat to Brian in the press conference

That gif, with Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz in it, would be amazing. Just as good as quantum leap hey guys

and the Padilla vs Spencer outputs since 5-0

iowa football is a nice distraction i look forward to every fall and having the worst athlete in D-1 football starting at quarterback makes it unenjoyable for me.

i'd like for his awfulness to be fully understood, appreciated and memorialized for posterity, as those who don't know their history are doomed to repeat it.

Very thoughtful response

 

[KitKatApples]

Holy shit. Of all people to make that criticism

You guys who are living in Iowa have it easy. Others aren’t giving you grief about Iowa/Ferentz/Petras on a daily basis.

I’m catching a lot of shit, boys. Every national media press item about Iowa’s ineptitude gets texted to me multiple times.

I had to discuss the Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz situation with a younger employee who went to Ohio State. "But if the coach won't get rid of his son, why don't they just fire the head coach?"

Oh my sweet summer child.

This is the exact same convo with every fan from a serious program.

Iowa football is so fucking Iowa sometimes.

I honestly don’t know how @Fair and Balanced has survived this far

Exactly. Every fucking person here acts like we owe KF a license to destroy the program beacause apparently he deserves more than the millions and millions of dollars, job security, and ability to give his family a job they suck at that we’ve already given him.
It really is stupid and for some reason Iowans are they only one’s who can’t understand it.

Just like zipper merging

 

[BuffettHawk]

Are you aware Iowa won 10 games last year? Yes/No

 

[The Full Monte]

Fuck Barta and this stupid ass contract

Is this an actual stat or a comedy bit?

 

[Alan Lomax]

Fuck Barta and this stupid ass contract

But seriously, that contract is…something. Why the fuck would a school give an institution like Kirk a huge buyout? I have chosen to believe it was some weird status handshake deal he’d never actually take, what say you?

He’s definitely going to take it

Hey Trent. Great podcast. Thanks for being the voice of the downtrodden Iowa fans.

What do you believe Iowa’s record would be at this point had Alex Padilla had taken every snap this season? Same question with regards to Joey Labas.

 

[Geese]

Yo Trent what's your gut telling you on Keagans future at Iowa?

 

[The Full Monte]

Trent

Bigger Dumbfuck: Fat Brian or Cletey Cole?

 

[Skinny Skier]

He’s definitely going to take it

If he does, is the goodwill gone for the statue or does he get that as well?

 

[Kamala]

Hi Trent,

Is Gary Barta violating state law by not adequately supervising Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz?

 

[Hawkstrat]

Is this an actual stat or a comedy bit?

It's real. Hawkeyereport does an off week stat breakdown.

 

[Pipiyopee]

Recording the Mailbag podcast tonight. Do your thing, HALO.

Where would Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz be employed, and what would his salary be, at this moment if Kirk Ferentz was not his father?

How is it possible that Spencer Petras is both a huge pussy, and also virtually indestructible?

Is Kirk Ferentz aware that WRs have traditionally been used for catching the football?

When Kirk finally fires Brian, will he do it through Barta? Because that would be better for me.

[KitKatApples]

Would it be possible to say that @Bob Sanders from Halo would like to know if they plan to use cooper dejean at QB at all after the buy week?

 

[Geese]

@tcondon l simple yes or no. Lets say you are injured. Not critically but serious enough you need to seek immediate medical attention. Would you let @KitKatApples drive you to the emergency room?

@tcondon most unlikely breakout player to look out for on offense

i would go with ragaini.

i just feel it’s rare for Italians to have bad complexion.

 

[KitKatApples]

Hey oh!!!

 

[MisterFalcon]

Shoot. I missed the window to get my question in.

Would Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz perform better as a coach on defense, where his unmatched ability to shut down an offense could be utilized?

 

[TAIhawk]

Is Kirk Ferentz aware that WRs have traditionally been used for catching the football?

Well done, I lol'd

 

[neshawk]

It's a trick play for Iowa to throw to a WR.

How many offensive players would Iowa need to be allowed to play on the field at once in order to beat Ohio State?

Could Ohio State hold Iowa under 7 points with only 9 players?

I think seven would be enough. Five guys to rush, two to cover LaPorta.

Just had a conversation with a coworker. Her kid is in same class as one of BF’s.

Kids in the class were saying all sorts of shit abt BF to BF’s kid. Stayed home from school for three days last week bc it was so bad.

That sucks.

Idk what age, but kids can be huge assholes without knowing it. I do feel bad for the kids, and even Brian.
