Makes you wonder how bad a guy like Josh Volk actually is since he's been on the team for 3 years now and can't even sniff the two deeps of a super shitty OL.
At a certain point, believing it’s a lack of individual development becomes illogical

One or two guys, fine. But when it’s nearly the entire position group, it makes very little sense to think that nearly every player recruited on recent years has magically turned out to suck

@Herky823 ‘s son has learned In Heaven There Is No Beer. Only they didn’t want him singing it loudly in front of people who didn’t understand the context, so they told him it’s In Heaven There Is No Juice.

Which presents an entirely different problem when sung loudly by a small child without perfect diction in public.

Also doesn’t rhyme with “here”.

In addition to the fact that Kirk isn’t hiring anyone that is going to challenge his philosophy….the candidate pool is going to be small and underwhelming. Most of the more prolific offenses in CFB are vastly different than what Iowa is trying to do.

The single biggest focus at this point though is probably someone that can fix this offensive line. After the last couple years, one has to wonder who was really responsible for Kirk’s reputation as an OLine guru

It has been confirmed that Doyle was the guru.

I think at some point you have to start getting at least a little bit concerned that a premier program makes a run at Phil

Volk is leaving the team after struggling with depression.

I saw a Twitter post that said Iowa should hire Michigan's O-line coach as O -coordinator. Harbaugh is a weirdo but he gets it. Tough D, Ground and pound offense. Throw in a QB who can run. Other teams hate playing against that shit, they have to make tackles against guys that are trying to kick their ass.

We had that attitude and formula with Brad Banks for 1 season. Thought Ferentz would get it. Never again I guess

We already have an offensive coordinator

The timing of this is critically important for many reasons (time truly is of the essence), but I really doubt we proceed with any urgency whatsoever. Nothing will be announced until Bridawg’s soft landing has been stuck, which could take weeks if not more. And Garta is of course fine with that because he’s convinced himself he has no other choice.

My fear is that if offloading Brian to the NFL is the only way out of this, it’s going to drag on until the (NFL) season is over

I have thought about the timing aspect too. The new coordinator move needs to get done asap, but unless Brian already has something lined up I doubt an NFL team is going to announce his hire prior to their season wrapping up. Hopefully he sacks up and resigns with “plans to pursue an opportunity in the NFL.”

It seems like a stretch to assume the future of an upper-half I am a giant douche program is placed on hold until the leader's millionaire child can secure other employment.

Doesn't it? No? Garta?

I fear that is our precise circumstance, Uli Kunkel, but hope with all my heart that I am wrong.
