My take on this, Iowa needs to name Goetz the AD asap or watch her walk.  I admire her tact on this.  Outside of being hypercritical of timing (last week vs this week), I feel this was a move of a leader. 

I've been led to believe Iowa can't name her permanent AD until year end or something.

really tarnishes their legacies IMO

They should just do it now so they can see if Jon Budmayr could handle things better.
I have concern Jon Budmayr will ascend to OC after the season is over. Budmayr could coach QBs, but I am skeptical of him ascending to OC in that this offense has not performed well with him in the position of "Analyst." You have a point to give him a test drive, but this late in the season, I don't think it would be fair to Budmayr, as bad as this offense has been all year. I doubt an interim OC would make much, if any, difference.
There are plays Iowa doesn't run that it should run to throw off a defense. 
As OC at Colorado State, Budmayr's 2021 offense averaged 23.67 points per game. The Colorado State defense was even worse than the offense. 
The article I read at HawkCentral said Beth Getz (temporary athletic director) will in some manner be involved in the selection of an OC. I don't know how that works in that the HC ordinarily has full authority over assistant coach hiring decisions.

seems odd to me that Barta or Kirk could not accept this responsibility

Especially the head coach, Father or not

instead, leave this to Beth Goetz, University of Iowa interim Athletic Director????

where's the leadership of the football program?
Interesting points. There are actually three men involved -- including Brian. None of the three could take a leadership role. Brian could have resigned, rather than become the laughingstock of the entire nation. I understand how difficult it would be to resign because where else can Brian earn $850,000 + a chance at a $50,000 bonus just for doing his job only moderately below average. Sadly, since his pay is so much higher than his market value as a coach it makes it easy  for Brian to just hold on until the university shows him the door.
Beth Goetz seized the opportunity to endear herself to the fanbase, and it no doubt will help assure that she gets the permanent position of athletic director.  It took a woman to take some leadership and make the obvious call, where three men could not.

I think whoever gets hired should keep Phil Parker on as DC if he'll stay. Their best bet would be to get an offensive guy and keep as much of the defensive staff as they can. Iowa has a culture of developing stud defensive players. Don't get rid of that. 

A guy that could be a fit....and I'd hate to see him leave but he's probably going to anyways because Jeem going to the NFL....Sherrone Moore. He'd modernize that offense and build great OLs at Iowa, and if he kept Phil Parker around that'd be a winning combo imo.

this would lead me to think that Kirk is gone
can't imagine an old school head coach like Kirk allowing a woman to hire his OC or anyone for his staff

On 11/1/23, Kirk cleared up any misunderstandings from his 10/31/23 news conference where he addressed the Brian will not coach beyond the bowl game, fact.
..I love coaching and my intent is to continue coaching here at the University of Iowa. We have built something very special here and I plan to coach until I am no longer passionate about the game, players, or coaches.”
