Iowa Beat Writers

A bowl game no matter how meaningless is still beneficial I believe. As much as I would take any bowl, I’m just not seeing it this year from the Hawks.

I like it for the team to get 3ish weeks in and another game but it's not like I go back and watch Humanitarian Bowl highlights from '02.

We learned in 2021 that the previous season's success didn't really give much momentum 8-9 months later so I don't geek out over that narrative either.

I think the torches have been lit and pitchforks sharpened in IC. How the tables have turned over there. Lots of laughs on HR under “Iowa Football”. Can you nominate a post on a rival site for “best post of the quarter”?

No way would I tune in to watch that. LOL

I was there live, and to add insult, I left my rain gear in the car (over a mile and a half away due to their crapfest set up) so I was soaking wet, then had to drive home with wet underwear.

So far this morning Condon has called Kirk condescending, arrogant, and an a-hole. Literally said a-hole.

Apparently Eickholt got blocked on twitter by a bunch of Iowa coaches. This is why their media is a bunch of ball washers, they literally have no other option.

Weird, I thought Kirk was a good guy who deserved a do over in trying not to run a racist program.

OMG. For asking Kirk a valid question?

And Iowa fans really think this guy didn't know what Doyle was doing? For real?

It almost feels like the Iowa media fan boys and a decent chunk of the fanbase are starting to come to terms with the fact that they've had a sh!t load of fools gold wins over the last 5 years.

Sooooo....this is about the time Barta rolls out a nice raise and extension for Kirk...right?

I mean...he could go somewhere else...

It's a sick cult thing going on over there. It's beyond funny almost. There's very likely illegal stuff going on. I mean, look at how hard they prevent transparency.

Eickholt got blocked a few weeks ago by Tyler Barnes after he vented his frustrations about the offense on KXNO. I’m guessing he’s still in the doghouse for that.

Edit: I guess he unfollowed Eickholt back then. Not sure if he blocked him but wouldn’t surprise me.

“At least I’m not that guy” is certainly not the high-class thing to say in any situation when you think about it.

Makes one wonder what kind of gum Kirk is really chewing……

I think Kirk wants to retire but also wants that cold hard cash, so he's trying to get fired.

He's so stubborn he wants to coach to prove doubters wrong.
