TITLETOWN - A Decade Long Celebration Of The Greatest Achievement In College Athletics History => Kansas State Football => Topic started by: Pete on September 13, 2023, 10:08:29 AM

So, many of you may already be aware of this, but I recently learned that the Iowa HC has an idiot kid who serves as his OC, and like every rough ridin' Iowa fan in the universe hates the kids guts…AND, the AD stepped in and added requirements to the idiot kid’s contract that Iowa must average 25 points a game this year or the kid gets less money and gets crap canned.
The story is here:
https://www.thegazette.com/iowa-football/how-often-college-football-programs-meet-goals-iowa-gave-brian-ferentz-for-2023/
Anyway, there is an X app account that tracks this saga.

I think the idiot kid survives this
-
every failson should have measurable requirements like this to retain the position. also defensive and special teams points better not count.
-
I think D and ST points DO count :lol:
-
PLEASE have this end with them trying to run up the score on Nubb
-
IKNOWRITE!
Would also be assuming to see them try to absolutely crush Bert Birleema in that second to last game. eff me, Iowa football is must watch TV this year.

I am now subscribed and expect weekly updates ITT
Ferentz has been such an odd case. Their ceiling has always just been a little higher than Iowa State, yet he’s got to be one of the longest tenured coaches in the P5 if not college football.
-
Can't find it now but either sickos or no context is using the alp climber game from price is right to track the points and it's rough ridin' perfect
-
I also enjoyed them talking about it on pardon my take today, and they're no optimistic on him making it. He's already off pace and when Big Cat said "with Wisconsin and Minnesota still on the schedule I see those as being 12-9 games so he's going to need to pick it up" I couldn't help but laugh on the plane at how accurate that is.
-
He needs to hang 60 on both Illinois and Nebraska

I know how PPG work, but this might be what I've laughed at the hardest. 44 points through 2 games, and 7 of them created by the D.
One more defensive touchdown in the first 2 games and he'd be on pace for it!
-
Remember Bob Knight and Eddie Sutton’s failsons? Like both doing shitty at the same time!

Is 25 ppg some arbitrary number or is it like the threshold for a top 25 offense?
-
if god truly loves us it will come down to if rounding up is in play or not
-
I hope he has one of those like fundraiser thermometer poster boards somewhere in the football offices that he colors in a little after each game.
Titled something like "Help me reach my goal!"
-

That's the best/worst part - 25 ppg is not good. Last year, 25 ppg would have ranked 78th in the country.

If he had a decent agent he would’ve had Iowa_FAN come up with some advanced metric that took in to account the glacial pace.

"If you stuck around for the final minutes here in Lincoln, you're in for a treat. Iowa leads Nebraska 37-14 and just called a timeout to set up a surprisingly crucial 2-point conversion with 3 seconds left on the clock. Brian Ferentz's job is on the line with this conversion. They line up in the I formation from the two and here comes the snap. And the play is blown dead, false start on the offense so we'll do it again from the seven."

LOL

I would definitely change the channel to watch this if it happened.

I see no scenario in which Kirk fires his own kid under any circumstance. If they force Brian out Kirk is going too.

I will be in Iowa City October 7th for the Purdue game. Looking forward to being on the ground to follow this story.

They aren't going to average 25 points a game but Brian Ferentz isn't getting fired. They're going to go 9-3 or 8-4 and win the Big 10 West. The athletic director who made those contact provisions was forced into retirement earlier this summer.

WELL IT'S STILL FUNNY
-
If they don’t reach that mark, they are going to have some pretty grumpy fans.
-
I think Brian is just the scapegoat here. It's not like any other offensive coordinator scores points at Iowa, either. Kirk is the common denominator.

yeah, but it's like when the hero won't do a bad thing for the villain but then the villain holds a gun to the hero's failson's head and he has to do it. except here it's just some stupid iowa guys so if the gun blasts the failson's head off it's funny and good and if the hero has to do despicable disgusting things to nebraska to save his son then that's also funny and good.

My perception is that Succession is responsible for the revival of that word. It might as well have been the title.

One my buddies in the ol’ HS text thread is an Iowa grad, and so are his brothers. His entire extended family wants to murder the OC in front of the HC on Christmas morning while singing “Angels we have heard on high.”

I like the AI Brian Ferentz stuff, but holy smokes. Penn State ran NINTEY-SEVEN plays on Saturday? and Iowa ran 33???
That's one of the more insane cfb stats I think i've ever seen. I don't know if a play disparity of 64 has ever happened before.

If I didn't know you to be a CFB historian and all around CFB data aficionado I would think you were just making that up.

Them talking about getting more receivers into the mix is the ultimate like "oh crap we can do that?" levels of discovery

It's the little details like that that make Coach Ferentz special
-
They might go 11-1 and average 20 ppg.

Bump.
20.9 ppg currently, will be favored in their last 5 to go 11-1.

I've been following this. There no way he get 25 points per game at this rate. Plus defense and special team points shouldn't count. He the Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) uncle they keep in the basement.

I think my favorite stat is that they currently go 3 & Out on 60% of their offensive possessions. Their punter might be their best player.

He could set records for highest scorer in the history of the big 10. BTW, didn't we have a kicker who was the lead scorer one season?

It is a little rarer in college as only 6/10 all time are placekickers.

I didn't realize passing TD's don't count as points for the QB. It makes sense that it's the equivalent of an assist in basketball though. No big whoop, our guy just runs 5 in.

It's OK for Brad to use that word.
-
Iowa absolutely got screwed on the punt return for a TD at the end of the 4th. However, if you're a P5/4/3 team that holds an opponent to 12 points, and you needed that TD to win, then you didn't really deserve the win anyways.
-
That was a terrible call but all they needed was to get about 20 yards in 1:30 minutes to get in field goal range, they ran three plays on what should have been their game winning drive those three plays netted -7 yards and ended in an interception.
-
It's hackneyed and cliche at this point, but it's so crazy how bad the Big 10 west is.
-
Man, I don't want to pick on the kid, he got absolutely massacred on a prominent sports show in the state last night, but look at the stat line of their current starting quarterback. What's even crazier is that the QB who won their bowl game last year is just sitting on the bench, not getting any time at all. It's almost like the Ferentz's are throwing games.

Here's him getting skewered on local TV, I know that no one cares about Iowa here but I'm only putting it on here because you rarely see a college athlete get buried like this by local press

Their game against Northwestern this weekend has the lowest O/U opening in the history of college football betting @ 29.5
-
He just resigned. It’s over. Lock the thread.
-
Damn
-
The stupid bad person resigning instead of trying to hang 60 on Nubb really pisses me off.
-
I feel like he could have used a classic revamp-the-entire-offense-montage and pulled it off, but I guess this universe just isn't his story
-
I don’t think he resigned, did he? I think they are saying he isn’t coming back next year, and he is still the OC this year.
-

This seems like a real opportunity for a "eff you, dad" moment where the failson casts away the chains and really let's the offense fly for a whopping 20 points against Nebraska.

Correct, I jumped the gun. Rumors came in after a meeting with the AD (which is hilarious). Details later came out that the AD told the Ferentz's the idiot kid will not be returning in 2024 either way.
Also, is the Big Ten West the worst division in the history of P5 football? (Iowa HC's Idiot Kid would get fired from every single school in it)
PPG
Iowa - 19.5
Minnesota - 21.1
Nebraska - 20.3
Wisconsin - 24.8
Northwestern - 21.6
Purdue - 21.9
Illinois - 20.4

Without looking it up I'm guessing the Big12 north from 2004-2006ish would be close.
Maybe some shitty ACC division but they are basically all G5 teams pretending to be P4/5

Where does homeboy go after this public of a firing? Can you even get hired at a DII school as OC in this situation? Or something like an OL coach at an FBS level? Even Messingham didn't land another job (assuming he was trying) and he has a much more extended resume.

He was presumably a good O line coach before he was promoted.

Thinking Iowa has to pluck Coedlicky from KU as their new OC.

Why would he leave KU for Iowa?

Why would he leave KU for Iowa?
Money and build his resume. If he turns around Iowa"s offense, that's high visibility opportunity to get his name out there for a HC job. Lightpole is getting all the cred in Lawrence.
-
Lance and his staff are "just happy to be here" guys, there is zero chance any of them leave.
-
I think he’s either a Venzy type just waiting for a major payday or he’s one of those unicorns who realizes he’s really good at one thing and wants to continue doing that instead of chasing the bigger payday.
-
KU can match whatever money Iowa would throw at him. He hasn't stayed with Lance for a decade for no reason.

They were small time until 2 yrs ago. I don’t think that matters for much. No one is going to limit their own career because you were in the mailroom with each other for 8yrs.
-
I doubt KU has the money to out bid a determined Iowa. And spending a decade in Lightpole's shadow makes my point.
-
Ok when he makes the obvious jump to Iowa feel free to bump this thread
-
Yeah, he’s not going to Iowa.
-
If not Iowa somebody. I said Iowa because of the opening and for the spirit of this thread's entertainment value, because in the end who on this board gives a eff about Iowa.
-

[/quote
Come on, man, they cannot, that's crazy talk, we can't either if they wanted to throw a bunch of money at Klein.
Kotelnicki is not likely to go to Iowa because he's more likely to either get a better OC job or head coaching job, but let's not make any mistakes here, Iowa is an infinitely better job than KU. I went back a decade and if their class holds it will be the first time in that decade that they were even within 20 spots of Iowa in the class rankings. The year that Lance took over, KU was literally 100 places behind Iowa in the class rankings. They've been more than 30 places behind Iowa than they've been closer than 30 places.
-
Are you talking about someone coming in and making him the highest paid OC in CFB? They already pay him 1M right now, which is like top 15 or so.

I'm assuming college football head coaches and ADs can see what the rest of us can
-
I guess we will find out, my money is on him staying with Lance.

We will pay whatever it takes. Some of you guys seem scared.
-
Not at all.
-

Because we're speculating on the coaching carousel? Okay.
-
I don’t know much about the KU football, but if Kotelnikki is a good recruiter, I would guess he has more to do with the success than Lance. If he can hire a good recruiter, he may be a better HC than Lance.

Technically in only one game did someone score 14 first and lose, w/ 2 that finished 10-7 and 12-10, so no one even got there. So I guess it would be accurate to say for 10 of 11 games?
I'm gonna be Rock Hawkeye'ing my ass off in the conference champ game. Would be amazing if they win it.

It's such a love-hate I have with Iowa, maybe it's just a morbid curiosity. I would agree it would be awesome for them to win, but they will get absolutely boat raced (see their Penn State game). And I find them absolutely gutting out wins as satisfying as them getting hung 40+ against an actual team. They are the worst good team there is.

There is no circumstance in which they would have won that Penn State game but if Cade McNamara didn't get knocked out of the game, it wouldn't have been anywhere close to that bad. His backup is an absolutely terrible quarterback, but as the season has gone along, they've game planned much better with him.
-
their defense must be incred
(and also they must play really bad teams given the Nubb SoS)
-
even accounting for the garbage offenses they've faced, iowa's defense is elite
snowbrag sos-weighted defense ranks:
1 ohio st
2 iowa
3 penn st
4 alabama
5 notre dame
their schedule is lol
#10 penn st L 0-31
#45 rutgers W 22-0
#49 iowa st W 20-13
#56 wisconsin W 15-6
#61 illinois W 15-13
#72 northwestern W 10-7
#74 minnesota L 10-12
#78 utah st W 24-14
#86 purdue W 20-14
#90 michigan st W 26-16

So I heard Matt Canada is looking for a job. He could even keep all his same color scheme gear! Heck of a deal if you ask me. :drool: Keep a decent W/L record, give the fan base someone to hate... it's a perfect marriage!
-
their defense must be incred
(and also they must play really bad teams given the Nubb SoS)
Their defense is definitely incredible. And their punter is a master at flipping field position and pinning them deep.
He averages 6.5* punts per game.
(*EDITED FOR CORRECT PUNT NUMBER)

Anyone else going to be a part of history today by betting the under?

I can't even imagine being an Iowa fan and watching that week in and week out. I think that's why they always get incredibly drunk at The Other Place in OP.

I tried to watch the Iowa v Nebraska game just now. Made it a series and decided my life is worth living.
-
When Iowa tries to pass the ball I'm like, "yeah, maybe the Ferentzes were right all along about not doing that."
-
I'm watching four games at once on YouTube TV, and I can't bring myself to move to the Iwoa/Nub game. Even without sound, it looks like a very boring ass game.

It's like Ground hogs day for football. I'll tune in and one of them will have a 3rd and 7 or 8 and I'll think, "hmmm wonder if they'll pick up 2 or 3 yards here?". And there it is, another punt.

Just emphatically shows how shitty the Big 10 West was. Those teams will now forever watch Michigan/Ohio State/Washington/Oregon play for the title game. Maybe Penn State.

USC will probably have some good years.

Not as long as Lincoln Riley is around. They'll be the Texas of the conference, perpetually hyped and land short

The interesting thing about the new Big 10 is that it gives teams that would be 7-5 in a normal conference the opportunity to get a super shitty schedule and end up 10-2 with a shot at a conference championship and a playoff berth. It also gives teams that would normally be a playoff lock the potential to draw Ohio State, Michigan, Oregon, and USC all in the same season, completely derailing their chances.

I don't know about that. Their schedule should be decidedly easier.

Nice, home games in white.

That's really manageable for USC. Michigan has a ton of guys they have to replace and they haven't been active in the portal. Washington and Oregon got did pretty dirty. It looks like the Big 10 will once again be crap.
-
Also, that's a really nice graphic

what an odd concept
-
not gunna do the math, but for as long as the conference stays this way, there is a very non-zero chance some team is going to play in order: Purdue, Oregon, Rutgers, Northwestern or Nebraska. PORN!!!! omfg :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
I am hoping for UCLA in the big 10 championship game someday after they complete a conference scheduling including games against Purdue, Maryland, Northwestern, Minnesota, Nebraska, Rutgers, Iowa, Indiana, and Illinois.

Actually, UCLA will have to play USC due to the rivalry.
-
Iowa could play that schedule and make it to the championship game.
