We're Talkin' New Hires: Kirk Ferentz Press Conference OPEN THREAD
by RossWB on Feb 8, 2012 3:30 PM CST
in Iowa Hawkeyes News
Email
PrintHey, didn't we just do this a week ago? Yes, we did, when Iowa officially signed their 2012 football recruiting class. And normally in the press-phobic world of Punxsutawney Phil Kirk that would mean six more weeks of no news until spring football starts up. But in case you've been living under a rock for the last few months, there's been a bit more turmoil than we're used to on the Iowa coaching staff. Norm Parker's departure wasn't exactly surprising, but Rick Kaczenski and Ken O'Keefe? Yeah, we weren't expecting those. So we've found ourselves in the throes of the biggest football coaching searches at Iowa since Ferentz himself landed here in 1999.
Thanks to the press release from Iowa last night, we know a little bit about the new-look staff: Phil Parker replaces Norm Parker at defensive coordinator, while Darrell Wilson replaces Phil Parker at defensive backs coach and Reese Morgan replaces Rick Kaczenski at defensive line coach. Ferentz has scheduled a presser today at 4pm CT, likely to discuss those moves. He may also discuss the impending moves on offense and the transfers of Messrs. Derby, Coker, and McCall in January. Or not, per Mas Casa.
In terms of coverage, we'll provide updates here and it looks like it should be streaming on KCRG's website and on the radio on KXNO in the Des Moines area. Not sure about other coverage options.
And hey, look at it this way: it's still better than having a press conference about a goddamn rhabdo outbreak.

Now just watch, Biff Poggi will walk out there to answer questions

That would be OK, actually. Biff would probably let loose with some real answers...

i’m so fucking sick of this deflating sinking 2:30 feeling with Iowa football. It’s like a bad commercial cosponsored by head-on and 5 hour energy.

I agree with this.

Am I the only one with no interest in watching G'town-Syracuse or UNC-Duke tonight?
Probably.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
YOU SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTH!
In re the Gtown-Cuse game. Evil (Jim Boeheim) must ALWAYS be opposed
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
I thought you might disagree with me.
Heh.
I have no dog in either fight, although I’m always happy to root for Duke to lose.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
I'm not going to pretend that even I can muster much enthusiasm for Gtown-Providence or Gtown-USF
but I loathe with every fiber in my being Syracuse and Boeheim
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Yes, winning sucks
so does going to the NCAAs every year
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
it's soooo fucking slow though
I’m sure it’s fine for fans as long as their winning, but it is no fun to watch from the outside. If get enough of that shit in the Big Ten.
Basically I want the Princeton offense to be outlawed.
What are you talking about?
Georgetown and it’s “slow” offense averages all of 3 points per game less than Iowa.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Pace isn't really that slow
the good thing about the Princeton offense is that it is adaptable to what your opponents try to do defensively. The real issue is that a lot of Big East teams just play absolutely brutal, thuggish defense
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
No, it is demonstrably slow
Not, like Wisconsin slow, but they’re 240th in the country in Tempo or something like that, according to Ken Pom. The defense thing is probably true to some extent, but those numbers are inflated by lots of teams in the conference playing a slow tempo. The same thing happens in the Big Ten. Like Wisconsin for years would have bad defenses and great offenses on a per possession basis, but everyone assumed the opposite about them because they played ungodly slow and the final scores were low (interestingly, this year the popular perception of them is actually backed up by the numbers)
Can Princeton's basketball team get grandfathered in though?
I mean, they don’t have to run it, but it only seems fair to give them the choice.

Yeah, who is our b-ball rival?
ISU? Illinois?
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
I used to think it was Indiana
Now it’s probably Illinois, although I think they hate us way more than we hate them. And yeah, ISU I guess, although it doesn’t have the heat of the football game.
I think the problem is that the Iowa basketball fanbase is so apathetic right now
And has been for several years. We need to get charged up for our own team before we can get our hate on for someone else.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"

Also
I can’t get over the fact that the same HS team had Harrison Barnes and Doug McDermott. Did they lose any games?
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Not really
I know they were undefeated in their senior year, and I don’t think they lost at all as juniors either.
The craziest thing is that all the people who used to tell me that McDermott was actually the best player on that team might have been right.
Yeah, I remember they won two state titles.
I just can’t imagine many teams in Iowa even coming close to challenging them.
1 future D-I star is usually enough to guarantee a state title in Iowa, having 2 is just unfair.

A strict observation of the sabbath means Jews can’t turn lights on or off from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. As a result, a lot of them will unscrew the light bulb in their fridge so they can stil open and close it. A Sabbath mode would save them the trouble.

He's certainly fucking with somebody
and it very well could have been Phil Parker. If (and these are big assumptions) KF kept Parker from looking at other jobs by hinting that he’d get the DC position, than dragging it out was just being a prick to Parker. If the decision was made in December, than dragging it out was just fucking with the fans.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Not the fans, but more broadly, the outside world.
I think KF figures that he owes nothing to the press, to fans, to boosters (though he knows where his bread is buttered), or anyone else.
He is defiant when someone makes him do something (like talking about a subject he isn’t ready to address).

'99 was kind of fun year.
Brand new coaching regime and lots of really close, exciting games. Literally 3 games came down to the very final play (Northwestern, Indiana, Minn).
I still say if Kahlil Hill hadn’t got suspended that year, Iowa goes 4-7.

And did. A lot.

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.

"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
The Big East is built to last!
The irony, in part, is that the Big East basically built ESPN by being the first conference to sign a basketball broadcast agreement with ESPN, back in the day when ESPN was showing non-stop cricket and Charlie Daniels’ Bash Fishing Tour, which helped establish ESPN as a “real” network. Only for the bastards in Bristol to turn around and be actively working to bring about its demise.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Bash Fishing sounds way cooler than real fishing.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
ESPN has blood on its hands, but the Big East would have been wise to take the deal offered to them a year or so ago.
They didn’t and then got poached. Pitt and Syracuse would have less incentive to bolt under that deal.
Also, I figure it if it does crumble, the old school Big East teams will still be together (well, minus Pitt and Cuse), so it won’t be all bad.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Oh, absolutely
the commissioner of the Big East is a fucking joke.

Syracuse needed the Big East to become relevant in basketball (at the time, they were largely an after-thought to the Catholic bball schools).
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Holy shit, it's like someone slaughtered and ate Floyd.
