hell no. Ferentz could have taken the high road. But he is a punk.
The rats are warming up in iowa
- Thread starter razpsu
- Start date
You've repeated this same thing for 4 years. Why is it at all reasonable to think a coach should be able to predict a 3.5 hour delay? What weather forecast, let alone one 120 hours in advance, would predict weather that would mandate such a delay? You've repeated this so often I'm sure you think it's true. But it's really pretty silly.
Ferentz looks like a rat— maybe he was smelling himself. Karma’s a bitch.
The Texas A&M qb that helped beat Alabama was a backup who had a terrible game the week before and played great the next week. We never know. They won big today also.
Ya think?
It will be an avalanche lol
PSU fan base can be overwhelming, and they will be,
due to the immoral Iowa coaches and fanbase

Agreed. I read all the posts from the experts here who claimed that Levis would have been better than Cliff....but he didn't get the snaps with the first team in practice......Fanatics won't give anyone half a break. Mickey Mantle got sent back to AAA in his rookie season. Patience is a virtue. No coach is going to judge a QB on an emergency gig. If Cliff can't play, we get to see what Roberson can do. I wish him well. We have some real "loyal" fans here.
They’re still bitching about the injuries over there. Love it.
So a good friend of mine went to Iowa and now lives there. He has been a Hawkeye die hard ever since he started college there back in 96. He is a season ticket holder and after the loss last week he called me Sunday and rubbed it in , all in good fun, but then stated that if Clifford stays healthy and the defense wasn't gassed because of the decline in offensive plays that they lose that game, in his words by 3 scores. I just got a text from him saying congrats on beating us. He said Penn State definitely exposed us last week and Ferentz spent so much time with the stupid injury argument that he obviously was not focusing on Purdue. He said this loss was 100% Penn States fault.
If we won that MSU game in 2017, we might have been the #4 seed in the playoff.
But we didn't --- and the blame is on Franklin. It's a valid criticism of a coach who likes to talk about being "elite."
So we are in their heads?
Nice. Plenty of empty space in there.

You could have saved a bunch of typing and just said, "you're right; it's silly."
I attended that PSU @ MSU game ...... I flew in for the weekend from Colorado.
I knew that rain and thunderstorms were coming. I brought my raincoat. How is it that I would know the weather and prepared but Franklin didn't?
You mean the game where an All Big Ten corner dropped a game clinching pick thrown right in his hands. Too bad Franklin wasn’t playing. Grow up.
Seriously this is the whole point. Fans are fans. But I'm absolutely astounded that a veteran coach like kf got caught up in this. This is on him and his chicken shit coach that rolled on the turf.
Your "quip" does not answer my question. How come, in an age where the internet is a thing, Franklin was not prepared for the weather?
There’s a difference between preparing for rain and preparing for a three hour rain delay…you get that, right?
I don't care. The fact that you are still stuck in reverse is your problem. Jay says hello.
Sad news out of Disney: Remy, the star of the movie “Ratatouille” passed away this morning. This was while they were in preparations to film a sequel. To save money and continue the project, they have offered the role to Kirk Ferentz. According to a Disney spokesperson, they couldn’t find a bigger rat.
On a half, not game, pinned down inside the 10 for the most part, TE failed him twice..
Yeah, all of those 3.5 hour rain delay examples.....Franklin certainly isn't beyond reproach, but this line of questioning is just plain dumb.
He was a deer in headlights....Purdue had 3 qbs handle Iowa. This isn't Div3 or HS. He didn't have to play like an all American just a decent div 2 QB would have worked

On behalf of all Hawkeye fans, please continue to post here. I know you don’t have the self awareness to understand this, but your continued presence just makes an already sweet victory taste just a little bit better. We appreciate all you do!

LOL….that’s like a wooden stake thru michnitt’s heart. 😎
I was going to post over there but their misery is fun to read so I just read and laughed. Man they hate the mods over here lol.
We can worry about that next week! Too much enjoyment to be had reveling in Iowa getting pummeled today!
