KP, Did you read the reports about law enforcement taking the backup QB away from the media? It sounds like a circus.
The cartoonists from Taiwan provide an interesting pregame feature on the Lions vs Cowboys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQV4HISN5LI
Yeah just a couple of years ago, Ferentz was an up and comer. He was one of the highest paid head coaches in the country. What had he done to warrant the high pay?
Ferentz had Iowa highly competitive for a number of years, but somewhere along the way, Iowa's fortunes changed, and they've been mediocre for the past several years.
those are great Bobda, thanks!! I wonder if Ferentz' mediocrity coincides with his massive buyout? Players aren't the only ones who get lazy with guaranteed contracts.
I don't know if Iowa is tired of Kirk or not, but back when he signed his big deal with them he was a hot commodity and could have had the ND job and probably some other bigger jobs, but he commented that he liked coaching at Iowa where a good season was appreciated even if it was only a 9 win season. Indicating that Iowa was OK with a few medicore seasons mixed in with the good seasons. I would be surprised if Iowa fired him to tell you the truth.
