[Herky] Coaching changes

[Brad Grupe]

I guess I was thinking ahead Gwen. I have no idea why I typed Ohio State. I know full well he was at Colorado State. I guess my brain isn’t working on a Monday.

Budmayr was never at tOSU.  He was at Wisconsin, Pitt, Wisconsin and Colorado State. He left CSU when the head coach was fired.

 

I would fire Barnett and move BF to OL where he did a good job and make Budmayr interim OC. I am not convinced that Brian is really OC anyway.  I believe Dad calls the shots 

 

And for the love of ..... give Padilla a shot at Qb.  This is ridiculous.  Petras is obviously a wonderful person but he just doesn't have it. 

 

Still heading off to Columbus

Getting to six wins is going to be very tough, the way things look right now.

Much of the current problem is related to the offensive line. Yes, they are young but I think Iowa missed on some recruits and what they have now aren't up to the caliber of what they usually develop.

Bad line means it's tough to rush and pass both.

I agree, Brian isn't the answer but if you demote him now, who do you promote? Most of the staff doesn't have much experience. Budmayr, the analyst is the only one that's been a coordinator and he was terrible in that role at Ohio State.

Kirk isn't going anywhere unless he has two or three bad seasons in a row OR Barta forces him to fire/ demote Brian and he quits in protest.

The portal could indeed be ugly after this season.

It’s Monday afternoon and no notice of any coaching changes.  Nor player changes, but I don’t think that’s the cause.

 

Any other D1 or D2 team in the country would have made a coaching change, at least with OC, by now.  Our guy has had, I believe, about 5 years to show his ability.

 

I think our HC has enough positive history to warrant continuation.  At least throughout the year.

 

Even JHF tailed off at the end and was ineffective.

 

It’s not injuries.  Maybe something that we cannot see.  Doesn’t matter.  No excuses for this long term problem.

 

What offensive skill players will want to go to Iowa?  I don’t even want to look at the transfer portal at the end of the year.

 

Can we reach 6 wins for a bowl?  No doubt we will be 3-4 after tOSU game there.  Can we go 3-2 afterward with Purdon’t and Minnie coming up?
