**Official 2022 Iowa Football Season Thread**

[Brad Wesley]

Probably wouldn’t have made a difference with Johnson, but announcing coaching changes as soon as possible is advantageous.

 

[TH1974]

I got pissed about every dipshit talking about it like it was a foregone conclusion because the widespread talk leaves no room for the coaches to convince him to stay. He's just a kid, he might have changed his mind multiple times if there weren't dipshit Iowa fans preemptively shittalking him in case he leaves.

Thanks, Bob.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Him being hurt enough to not be able to play AND wanting to transfer don’t have to be mutually exclusive.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

If he truly quit on the team and could have played but chose not to, he wouldn’t have been kept around.

 

[Gushawk]

Hurt enough to not play covers a wide range of maladies and mindsets. Hurt enough to not wish to participate in this dynamic offense? Most certainly.

I’m sure you believe that.

 

[The Dad]

True. The coaches and players who said that were likely full of shit.

 

[Gushawk]

Kicking him out of the building would have been the dumbest possible decision.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Look i don’t fault the kid for wanting to leave. He SHOULD leave with this joke of an offense. We don’t have to make up these made up fantasies about it .

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Kicking him out of the building would have been the dumbest possible decision.

Have you ever been on a team before?

 

[SteadyEddy]

Lol. It was obvious to anyone with a brain something was off about the whole situation. Coaches and players don't go a whole season without getting into more detail about an apparent injury. Strange he didn't come to his conclusion earlier as we all knew who the shitty quarterback and shitty OC were going to be.

 

[Brad Wesley]

Arland Bruce is now on the clock.

 

[Gushawk]

Have you ever been on a team before?

Many. There is no indication he was a cancer, and the brand impact of telling him to GTFO would have been far worse than any impact on team chemistry from letting him continue to hang around, work out/“rehab” and bide his time.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Arland Bruce is now on the clock.

After his PR escapades he can dip too.

 

[TVan]

Lol oh hey welcome back.

I was always here. You weren't paying attention.

 

[TVan]

Probably you.

Na. You are stupid and can't admit defeat.

Who’s next?

 

[Renegade_ofFunk]

I think we should fight about a player that hasn’t produced anything for the team in over a year.

 

[Gushawk]

It should be noted that the entire WR room is purported to hate Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz, so the toxicity was already deeply baked in. Things could have gone very south very fast if you boot him.

 

[SteadyEddy]

Shitty situation. There is nothing to sell the current players other than "change".

Hopefully they are telling them BF is fucking gone, the new scheme is WR friendly, zone light, and they have a great QB lined up.

Lol, guys who totally quit on their team before the year often stick around and then PLAY IN THE FINAL FUCKING GAME.

He was hurt, and he also is fucked in the head mentally. He's transferring after being a wreck all season. Bye.

Ok let’s say that’s true.

So your scenario is:
-he hates BF
-decides to transfer very early in the season and makes it well known INTERNALLY
-Is still allowed to practice
-Gets spot # of snaps in a couple games
-Kirk alludes to an injury of some sort but stays super vague about it
-Keagan gets in a little vs Nebrantska
-Decides to transfer today

Anything else?

 

[Mr. Hawk]

Anything else?

You like penus?

 

[thrawn]

Keegan’s Iowa tenure was a strange one even by Iowa WR standards.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

You like penus?

Lol

What’s with the question mark?

To review: I'm a retard because I believe that proactively running around telling everyone that a promising young player is transferring while they are still on the team is dumb as fuck.

Yeah... I'm never changing that opinion.

 

[The Dad]

He didn’t make it known he wanted to transfer. Just that he didn’t particularly feel like practicing or playing.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Yeah that sounds super plausible that Kirk would allow him to play last Friday under this scenario.

I’m only going by what people closer to the situation than either you or me were saying Bub.

Tell ‘em Steve Dave.

 

[CamelTones]

I still chuckle at Morehouse for saying 2 years ago that the transfer portal wouldn’t be a big deal and you wouldn’t see that many transfers.

 

[SteadyEddy]

I can't remember which game, but the announcers said BF was purposely funneling the offense through the tight end. I had always thought that was a bug, not a feature. If it's true that he designed a tight end first offense the guy should have been run out of town years ago.

That meathead watched the 2017 team with 2 first round tight ends and figured it was a suitable option going forward.

 

[Mr. Hawk]

Allegedly Kakert has stated somewhere that Kadyn is solid on Iowa, per Leistekow text.

I feel like this is getting lost in the gayness of the Keagan talk.

 

[BBK]

My sources deep inside the program are telling me Kirk has asked Petras to come back next year, and Spencer has accepted

Perhaps you don’t know he developed Aaron Hernandez and Rob Gronkowski in New England. They won more than 10 games too

MikeyJoe is gonna give you a timeout for this bullshit

 

[Creed]

He played in the last game thinking he could preserve his redshirt. He had played in one game prior so that plus Neb, expected douche title and bowl game gets him 4 to play so redshirt is maintained. It was obvious all the way through that he was gone.

 

[CleteyColgate]

Yes please

Yep. That, and he is from Nebrantska. He wanted to play in that game on the way out the door.

 

[The Full Monte]

Although I certainly find no fault with the young man’s decision. Kirk reaped it.

The ultimate sleep in the bed you made

just sucks badly for us as fans. As others commented, he’s not an elite receiver compared to the rest of the sport. But he certainly was at Iowa

 

[CleteyColgate]

Yep. That, and he is from Nebrantska. He wanted to play in that game on the way out the door.

Very nice of Kurt

 

[Harlan]

Probably you.
