Major sports do not compare very poorly IMHO. Baseball #2. Wrestling #1 tie. Football, average. Men’s basketball, NCAA and high in the B1G. Women’s basketball, something like #4. That ain’t so bad.

I don’t care how we compare to the rest of the country. I do care as to how we compare to the B10. And we compare very poorly. Dave McCoid

I was the top salesman in a very successful company before I retired. I'm still glad I didn't work for you. According to a previous email Iowa was 31st out of 208 for the DC. Not to bad, yet by your standards most, If not all, the coaches should be fired. At that rate no one would want the jobs.

And yet none of the so called experts (sports writers) ever mention our lousy over-all performances. If Barta has goals for each of his teams they are very low. Perhaps he has none. Here are mine: for all teams except FB: every team in every year finish in the top ½ of the conference and once in every 3-4 years contend for the championship; FB: every year finish no worse than 3rd in the division and every 3rd year, win the division. If coaches don’t accomplish these goals, they are fired. I acknowledge that a new coach deserves additional time to get his program to this level. Dave McCoid

In 7 of the last 10 years, Iowa finished last of the Big Ten in the directors' cup. (thru 13-14) I looked up 14-15 through April and we were 8th out of 14. (31st)
4 big 10 teams were in the top 10.
When was the last time we won a Big title of any kind? Track I think a couple of years ago?

While this is not the leader in the conference, I certainly would not say we were worst, or even among the worst. Several sports had solid years. Some sports had miserable years. Some had outstanding years. The only thing missing from this list is National Championships. Other than a few elite programs, (Ohio State being the most obvious choice this year), you won’t find many ‘multiple’ championship teams at the same program consistently.
I have no problem pointing out our flaws, but let’s also give a fair representation. We have a long way to go, but we are not digging out of a hole here.

That is shame on us, myself included. We have now arguably the worst or among the worst overall athletic program in the conference and we just keep shelling out money.

Barta's not going anywhere, he raises oops and gobs of money. About what he says about Ferentz, what do we expect him to say? Ferentz isn't what he used to be but I'm giving him another year or two? I don't think he will throw Ferentz under the bus quite yet.

Probably not a good sign if AD feels it's necessary to throw bouquets to fans to try to boost the rep and credibility of a coach after, lo, so many years in charge😇!
