Which is also why JP panicked and went after Incarnate Word to fill your schedule out last season. At that point it looked like you were going to need the big W there to get bowl eligible.

You're saying Iowa State looked they like we're going to need Incarnate Word to get to bowl eligibility before Brock Purdy took over?

What would you consider a lateral move?

I think the only way Campbell leaves is if a much bigger program takes him or he goes to the NFL. I wouldn't want Iowa to keep Ferentz if he was one of the hottest names in the game and I was really hoping he left after 2009

Incarnate Word was scheduled when Iowa State had played 1 game.
So, in that case:
You nostradamus or something?

So if Campbell is one of the hottest names in the game then surely a much bigger program or the NFL will take a serious run at him before 2024. Another trip to the Liberty Bowl should seal the deal.

I don't think he will be here in 2024. I guess I don't know why you want your only rival to have a great coach is my question

Hmmm....being bowl eligible 17 of the last 18 years is mediocre? Winning 12, 8, 8 and 9 games the last 4 years is "mediocre"?

You got pretty high standards.
The conversation was about this season. Give me one hawkeye fan that can dwell in the present just one.

You know how you're more comfortable hanging around elementary school play grounds? CMC is more comfortable building his own program and teaching teenagers to become good men. And he doesn't wear a trench coat with the pockets cut out.

Don't want them to have a good coach or you want them to have a coach you can consistently beat? If Campbell is still at ISU in 2024 and is 0-9 or even 1-8 against the hawks I'll be damn glad he stayed.

That's why it's your Super Bowl. You think Trevor Downing, Breece Hall, Zach Peterson, Brock Purdy, etc go to Iowa State under Paul Rhoads?

It's actually funny you make fun of the Liberty Bowl when in the three years Matt Campbell has been at Iowa State, Iowa has made the Outback Bowl twice and the Pinstripe Bowl lol.
