I really hope this is wrong.

Life of Brian: Iowa is one game closer to losing The Ferentzes, probably

The only number that matters this season is 25 PPG for Brian Ferentz and the Iowa offense. Although the Iowa Hawkeyes improved to 1-0 on the season, Brian Feren

I called bs on this when it was 1st announced. If iowa wins 7 games they’ll retain baby Kuck. Big Kuck will threaten to retire and make excuses of his derelict progeny’s incompetence and failures. The admin will bend the knee and the beat will go on. Or…

They’ll call his bluff and iowa will have a new HC and staff in 2024. Personally, I don’t hate either of those options.

If Barta was still calling the shots I'd agree with you. If Baby doesn't hit 25 he gone.

My fear is if Ferentz is out Bob Stoops might take the job

Stoops could’ve come out of retirement to be LSU’s, USC’s, Florida’s, FSU’s, Notre Dame’s coach but he passed on all those jobs. Hell he could’ve had his old job at Oklahoma back when Riley bolted for USC. If Stoops passed on all those jobs he’s not going to tarnish his resume by taking over his middling alma and end up being persona non grata like Frost.

If Stoops really wanted to coach again, and at Iowa specifically, he’d would’ve taken one of those high profile jobs, turned them around, then jump to iowa once Kuck retires. IMO Stoops has been out of coaching too long to come back. But as the old saying goes… “never say never” I guess.

Good, I hope it pisses off Kuck and he retires. Cause I think they’ll have trouble attracting a top shelf coach.

I doubt that. Stoops has a heart issue and can make millions doing college football commentary if he wanted.

Guess I am wrong about Bob Stoops. Good!

 

[litespeedhuskerfan]

Stoops 12-15 years ago? Yes. Stoops now? Meh.

That Bob Stoops? I didn’t know that.

yes, the very same.

I guess I should’ve specified at the FBS/P5 level. From what I understand those XFL jobs are a 3-5 month a year jobs. As we all know P5 coaching gigs are 365 day a year jobs.

 

[scarletred]

the XFL coach?

Yea doofus he is a very good coach.. only thing is I don’t believe he is interested be a college football coach again.

What? You don't follow the XFL/USFL?

And you call yourself a football fan. (I honestly thought the XFL was the newest version of the USFL, apparently that is not the case.)_
