I'm sure Iowa fans have to be in full meltdown mode. They just lost to one of the worst Nebraska teams in recent history, and 3 of their neighboring schools (NU, Wisconsin, and Illinois) have made significant hires to their head coach in the past 2 years.
Fhuel is Rickell.......Rickell is Fhuel...........................Both of them, are men
We better not lose to the one win buffs, even if they get Deion. Scott losing to CU back to back destroyed my confidence in him.
Iowa is pretty much done for. They are stuck with Kirk for the long haul and he is never going to fire his son Brian. Also sounds like the iowa AD and iowa brass are chummy friends. The iowa ship is going down and nobody is going to do anything to correct it over there. With the new B1G TV money coming in, they have the cash to get a new AD and fire Kirk, but that will never happen. They elevate Kirk to be some kind of legend for some unknown reason, even though he has never won a championship of any kind. Just sad. When you give a Headcoach an unlimited leash, you get what iowa is stuck with.
Fickell was also my first choice, but Matt will get the job done, for he knows P5 football. Fickell on the other hand is going to have a learning curve.
So it looks like offensively the most important stat, points per game, increased steadily each year despite fluctuations in the rushing and passing numbers. To me that screams better efficiency on offense and not just grabbing empty yards.
