in Iowa Hawkeyes Football
Email
PrintHello, friends. It's been a long time since we could have a decent (see: in no way related to Iowa basketball) Iowa Hawkeyes open thread. But here we are, less than a month before the start of football season, and Kirk Ferentz will be addressing the media this afternoon at 1:30 PM.
Luckily, that presser will be streaming live at Iowa's official website, so we'll be watching, and you should too. Comments go below, like they usually do.

Am I the only one
who is growing weary of Kirk’s retro tech spiel. He is clearly an intelligent man, maybe even brilliant, yet I bet it will take two hands to count the number of times he will mention his inability to grasp communication technologies more complex than two cans and a string. At first it was kind of funny but after a while he comes off a bit disingenuous.
If you feel like singing along, don't.

Yeah, I don't buy it for a second.
I mean, I believe that he probably isn’t texting & Facebooking 24/7, but the extent to which he plays up that “golly geewhiz these new-fangled gadgets sure are new-fangled!” seems like a facade.

Recruits sometimes ask him for a nice game of chess
but Ferentz always requests Global Thermonuclear War. The guy is nobody’s fool.

Totally different context though.
Pitino was whining about the fans, the team, the “attitude around here”, etc. Ferentz was basically saying we have to replace those guys.
I know you knew that.
Ferentz compares the two losses in 2009...

Ferentz and Stanzi have both been really high on Wienke this off-season.
Surprising, because I figured he was a transfer for sure.

"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
It really WOULD be nice to have a Senior backup in case Senior Vandy goes down.
I’d like JW better if he wasn’t a lefty. I’m left handed so I like to see lefties succeed, but the left vs. right difference isn’t what I like to see if he has to come in mid-game… it just seems to mess up any fluidity/continuity for the receivers. But maybe that’s just perception (I’m sure JC6 is a large reason for my thinking- – that and lefties being sinister).
by Eyeheartfreedumb on Aug 6, 2010 3:02 PM CDT up reply actions
There was a time when...
..young Rick Stanzi was little more than a back-up for Drew Tate’s Heir Apparent, Whats-His-Name Christensen. Things change and we may be cheering Wienke as our starting QB before the season is over. I’m just saying shit happens.
If you feel like singing along, don't.

It may Just be you
But I seem to recall When JC came in after Tate he always seemed to look pretty good. It wasn’t really until he took over that things went downhill

The problem is
By this point, KOK has probably changed all the plays in the playbook to be right-handed friendly. If the Mandenberg comes in, he’ll be rolling to the wrong way all game.

Is Vick a lefty? Really? (I honestly never noticed.)
I wasn’t saying that lefties aren’t good QBs, just that Iowa’s left handed QBs have made me cringe when they play. Like I said, I can’t put my finger on it. It’s weird, but the offense seems messed up when we go from right to left hander mid-stream. And like I said, it’s probably just me, but it’s something I’ve noticed.

- QB Blake Haluska (good lord, how many Haluskas are there?)
- K Michael Meyer (EEE EEE EEE)

I just think
He likes to give him some shit here and there. But he definitely likes him.
Yeah, but here's the thing
When have you ever heard Ferentz talk like that about any of his other players ever?
Ceci n'est pas un blogue.
Never, but
There have certainly been other players that were much deeper in the dog house than DJK. Like Benny Sapp, for example, or other players who were on their way out.
Ferentz doesn’t joke around when players are in serious breach of code of behavior. DJK is just a character.
Ocho Cinco is a character
DJK is a happy kid. I don’t know what the deal is but Kirk has decided to keep his foot on DJK’s neck and I don’t see it changing. To DJK’s credit, he lets it roll off his back for the most part. He might almost like the attention it gets him.
"I wish you luck with a capital 'F'" - The Real Elvis.
Well, as has been mentioned...
…when does Kirk joke like that (and he always smirks whenever DJK’s doghouse stuff comes up). It’s like they all know the perception and Kirk is using it to deflect attention from what he doesn’t want attention on. He’d NEVER do that, right?

You can count on two or three FB passes a year
if he catches all of them, he’s done his job. Actually those are the pieces of candy for doing his real job of being a blocking machine on the other 99% of plays.
the reason
is that he might be better at what he does than any other back. I think Morse is really good.
Good points, OPS and StevD.
I guess I’d just like to see us give the fullback 3 carries per game rather than 3 carries per year. And yes, 2010 may be the year where we have enough tailbacks that I won’t wish that, but…
