would have to think new guy would want to make changes....and would have to think Kirk wouldn't be on board with firing his son.

could Iowa have a new head coach in 2024?
The new "guy" will probably be....

 Beth Goetz, who is Iowa's deputy athletics director and chief operating officer.  She is the former AD at Ball St and also was interim AD at Minnesota.

Dude is also an early stage prostate cancer survivor.   

He probably is thinking life is too short to put up with all this B.S.  I mean,  between all the lawsuits, and transfor portal, and he just hates NIL.  And now he doesn't have to deal with any of it ever again.  I wish him well.

I'll bet she just loves Kirk & Brian ;)

Didn’t know that, and glad he’s bested cancer, bc fk cancer. 

Anyway can’t say I blame any AD or HC in major P5 football if they are fed up and want to bail. P5 football is a zoo out there right now.

If Barta is gone, the new guy could get rid of Brian

which could force Kirk out

Iowa's new AD will be hired to answer to Kirk Ferentz and won't have any say in motioning Brian out, much less forcing Kirk out. All until Kirk gets his 200th win.

Iowa has named an interim athletics director to fill in for Gary Barta following his retirement announcement last week.

Beth Goetz has been named to the role, effective Aug. 1. Goetz was named interim AD after Barta announced May 26 that he will retire after 17 years at the university.


A former soccer player and college coach, she a bachelor’s degree from Clemson in 1996 and a master’s degree from Missouri-St. Louis in 2000.

Goetz joined the Iowa athletics staff in September 2022 from Ball State, where she served as AD for 4 years. At Ball State, she supervised 19 Division I sports teams, all head coaches, and senior staff.

Odds are good Beth Goetz will end up being the permanent hire.  Feels like this has been in the works for a year now.

I wish my long lens had been mounted to my camera to catch the mouse that ran under the chair the priest sat in at dad's funeral June 3, in Tucson. It almost stole the show.
Dad and mom were among a group of Iowans who watch Hawkeye games at a sports bar in Tucson, and several of the group were present. One of the funeral attendees, "Hawkeye Mike," who was not on the itinerary, courageously walks up to the lectern after the last family member shared memories, and gave a very nice talk about dad. This was just before "How Great Thou Art," and before the "Iowa Fight Song" close out the celebration.
After complimenting dad on a number of his good qualities . . . he asked the duly assembled, "Did you see the hawk circling overhead during the service?" Many had seen it through windows that go clear to the 20' high ceiling, but I did not - in the front row -- I saw the mouse.
Later, some said they saw the mouse outside before the service. I can only guess why the hawk was circling, and why the mouse was now indoors. Nevertheless, it was symbolic. The funeral director couldn't have planned it better.

Dad was a better story teller than me, but I tell stories, too.

Iowa scored 230 points total in 2022-23.

  • 17.4% of the scoring was by the Iowa defense.
  • Including the extra points scored on Iowa TDs scored by the defense, it is an even 20%
  • Is there another NCAA defense that has done this well at scoring relative to its scoring offense, ever?  Where is medinabuckeye1 when you need his statistical analysis?
  • Certainly not hanging around this depressing thread. He has his own depressing thread.


May be an image of 1 person, playing football and text that says 'CU canesuniverse CANESUNIVERSE MIAMI Ss AT&T 2001 Miami would ve gone never scored a TD. the offense FYI, the offense scored 50 TDs. Paul Finebaum What' S the craziest CFB stat of all time?'
