A choke job for the ages in Iowa City yesterday, and the natives are restless. Very restless. Below is a representative sample of sentiment taken from an Iowa site.
"They will be propping Kirk up on the sideline with his gum, drool bucket, and a notepad and crayon while dipshit haircut runs the program into the ground."
LOL!
Bigger picture, our conference's lopsided divisional alignment is a bad joke, and the only reason it's structured this way is to serve the needs of the Big Two.
>>Hope all you want but the truth to all the blind faithful at the altar of Kirk is that our abysmal offense, coaching, inability to use or promote the portal, inability to develop a competent offensive scheme, or make game-time adjustments, stubbornness to stick with upper classmen over more talented underclassmen or admit mistakes has been a major detriment preventing this program from becoming a legit talent to challenge for the B10 championship more than once a decade. The sub-par competition in the B10W and a solid opportunistic defense has been propping up this shit show through a lot of miraculous wins and bloated W-L records.
Iowa's record over the past decade under the Capt. Kirk regime has been mostly smoke and mirrors which gets exposed when we do make the big game on rare occasion and are subsequently steamrolled. But we do things the "Iowa Way" and we are only 1 of 5-6 teams with a winning record each of the last 10 years (albeit against an inferior B10W division), so the money keeps rolling in and Kirk has secured absolute power and zero accountability. Blah, Blah, Blah, rinse, repeat.
Frankly you would think major P5 team with an offense rated worst or near worst in all of D1 for multiple years would demand some sort of accountability and action - but No.... We hide behind surliness and platitudes and how dare we speak out or challenge the Emperor and his son although anyone who removes their blinders can see they have no clothes. He has no B10 championships under the new division system and frankly the Capt. only has 3 quality New Year's Day or equivalent bowl victories in his 24-yr tenure.
Buckle up for at least another 4-5 years folks because it's going to be painful, and we will get no quality skilled offensive position players to commit to Iowa which would allow some success despite Haircut's ineptitude. Why would you come play here as a highly touted QB, RB, or WR recruit? I am amazed Phil Parker sticks around because his back has got to be sore from carrying the load for this shit show...They will be propping Kirk up on the sideline with his gum, drool bucket, and a notepad and crayon while dipshit haircut runs the program into the ground.
Well at least the Nebby game exposed the fact that sans a mistake free game and a defensive score, we have no hope of a victory at the hands of the offense against a mediocre or better opponent. We will be spared a repeat of a complete thrashing in Indy and the recipient of a bunch of laughter from the B10 critics who say (and rightfully so many years) that the B10 is a joke especially in the West.<<
