You were 8-4 with one of the easiest schedules in the country. When you have to play Penn State, Ohio State, and Michigan you will automatically have 3 losses. Those teams are getting better and you are getting worse. Nebraska and Wisconsin are getting better. You will lose to us every year. That's already 6 losses before you figure in your one orI think Iowa recruits fine, they recruit the same every year. Every year they are about 8-4 on average.
What desperate coaching hires? Define desperate.
How is the game quickly passing by the head coach? What in the last year or two makes you say that?
Why is Iowa going to be "really bad next year"? What makes you think that or that it'll be anything different than the last 15 years?

2. Lost your starting QB so you are playing a guy with no experience
3. Lost the best guys you have on defense.
4. You did recruit worse, but 1 5 star made the class look much better than it did.
5. You have a guy with 0 experience calling plays and you brought in a washed up coach to help and some guys from ND and a MAC school
6. KF keeps doing the same thing over and over. Yes you had one great year because you played the easiest schedule ever and got embarrassed when you had to play someone good. That only ensured he would be around to bury your program into the ground.
Good luck with all of that.
