In memoriam of Brian Ferentz as Iowa's OC

[JD4560]

Saw that Iowa did what most people thought they'd do. Looks like it will stay the same old sh**

 

[kkise]

"Snicker"

 

[CyArob]

Your next head coach, Iowa fans.

 

[Cyched]

Poor bastards

 

[Trainer]

 

[SECyclone]

AKA Kirk Ferentz will continue to be the offensive coordinator

[SwirlyBird]

what happens in three years when they want to use the OC as a scapegoat again?

He's rolling the dice on a head coaching job at Iowa or any P5 school for that matter when the tavern hoks start yelling for his head.

I don't really care what Iowa does, but don't most organizations have some kind of nepotism policy?

Coaches hire relatives all the time. Off the top of my head I can name:

Iowa
Kansas State
Oklahoma
Louisville
ISU - used to with Magino/Magino and Burnham/Burnham

Brian technically reports to Gary Barta and not Kirk, but it's just a formality.

Brian already reports to Barta, that is how they are getting around that technicality.

Apparently not.

 

[c.y.c.l.o.n.e.s]

Given how rough he had it in college (having to live in subsidized housing) I'm glad to see him doing well.

 

[nfrine]

If Brian doesn't listen to dad he may have to move back into subsidized housing.

 

[CyDude16]

Underwhelming, really.

 

[cydsho]

Brian: "Hey dad, I want to install a more up tempo passing offense"
Kirk: "No"
Brian: "Ok, whatever you say dad."

 

[stateofmind]

If there was somebody that can make his Dad change it would be his son I'm guessing. Probably not as bad as most on here think.

 

[Cycsk]

Apparently not.

Mangino's son was only half the coach he was.
