He just completed his 23rd season. That works out to 7.74 wins per year. Nice payday for something slightly ahead of Narduzzi.

Actually as a successor to JoePa, before JoePa actually gave it up, I was hoping that Ferentz or Fitzgerald from Northwestern would become Joe's successor.

I think most thought the same or at least saw that they would fit the mold.

Then there is this.

"Ferentz’s decision to dissolve the group came after a contentious meeting Oct. 18 and after committee chair David Porter, former Hawkeye offensive lineman, suggested to the group in a chain of text message Jan. 2 that it’s time to “bring in a new head football coach, football staff, and athletic director.”

In the chain of messages, Porter said Ferentz is “loyal to a fault” and will “fall on the sword for his son and his staff because he thinks it’s the right thing to do. I disagree.”

“The only way I see to save his legacy, protect the program, help those kids, and continue to move forward at the same time is for Kirk to retire,” he wrote."
