2023 Iowa Season Thread

Only one game left with Brian. I am afraid Jon Budmayr will be announced as Brian's successor, and there will be no re-tooled offense.

The Michigan game was exhibit A of all the reasons why Brian got fired.  An awful offense that not only did not score but turned the ball over at key moments.  Then Brian gets flagged for throwing his giant temper tantrum proving once again he does not have the right personality for OC.  Maybe Brian should try being a defensive line coach in his next life. 

I say good riddens.  Nobody on Kirk's staff could have been a worse choice for OC.  Whether it is Jon Budmyr or Tim Polasek comes back,  or KOK comes out of retirement,  it may be the same style offense,  but there is no way the plays could be called any worse than Brian's calls the last 2 years.

is GD Greg Davis available?

I see that Spencer Petras has announced he is transferring to Utah St.  Utah St is going to need a new QB next year.  Different QB's struggled until junior Levi Williams won the job late in the season.  But Levi Williams is skipping his senior season to join the Navy seal.

Utah St is listed as running a spread offense,  which would be interesting for Petras to run.

What are we looking at for a final score in the Citrus?

6-3 ?

On Wisconsin!

On Wisconsin!

Maybe Iowa can recruit Paul Chryst as the new OC and make him the head coach in waiting.

Throw in a safety.   6-5

A rumor circulating on the Web today has Scott Frost linked to the open offensive coordinator position, at Iowa.

[FearlessF]

HAH!!!!

I'm not buying it

seemed to me that Kirk didn't like Scott A tall

Also rumblings about Paul Chryst. That would be something.

[FearlessF]

Kirk and Paul friendly?

or is the interim AD conducting the search w/o Kirk's input? 

[Hawkinole]

It seemed that a sputtering offense led to Paul Chryst's exit at Wisconsin. Might be what Kirk wants, or doesn't want.

Chryst's exit from Wisconsin had more to do with his vision for the program. He went an entire year without a recruiting department, didn't like recruiting, did not embrace the portal, and wanted nothing to do with NIL.

OC is the perfect job for him - so long as he doesn't have to recruit anything but QB's. Aside from that, I think he'd do well at Iowa, given how they recruit OL, TE and RB. 

Think about PC and his offenses under Bert at UW. Pretty darn good if you ask me.

this sounds like Kirk
