Looks like Chris Landry is saying Kirk Ferentz to Michigan.

That is what the Iowa Rivals boards are saying anyway. Oh well I guess we are going to be stuck with Miles.

Makes sense considering Mary Sue Coleman's history with Ferentz and Carr laying down the landmines to keep Les out of Ann Arbor.

he might end up there but wow, that would be an absolutely horrible hire.

I would think they would want to talk to some others.

someone else posted something similar. Ferentz is a good coach, but on paper, he doesn't come close to Les. Esp when you consider the weakness of the Big10 and the strengh of the SEC. Someone told me that Ferentz had ties to someone in the AD at UM. something about the same guy that hired Ferentz at Iowa now works for UM. Don't know the specifics.

I agree. Iowa has done nothing since they lucked out and beat LSU in 2004.

Not a guy and not the AD. The president, Mary Sue Coleman.

I hope we get to keep Miles. Pellini is the one that needs to go.

Did not march. Thought the march was inappropriate. I wanted him to take the UM gig before the march and my feelings have not changed.

This would be amazing, I thought Ferentz was gonna be gone soon with the season's they've had, lately. He had to be pissed about turning down LSU until this came along.

With their strong football tradition, why would UM settle for such a mediocre coach like Ferentz? It seems like they're in too big of a hurry to find someone. They would be better off considering other candidates. As someone else pointed out, Ferentz has done little since Iowa's upset win over the Tigers!
