I mean, I guess if Iowa is happy with the job he is doing, more power to them. I just don't understand the length and money involved in another extension when he had one very good year after a decade of averaging 7 wins a season.

I realize Iowa doesn't have the same expectations as other programs, but how patient will their fans be if they regress back to another stretch of 7 wins being the norm?

I think this is just an example of a fan base that has appropriate expectations for their program. ULL fans should take note.

Wrong coach gets in there and they could go 20 plus seasons without a winning record again too. For Iowa, averaging 7 to 8 wins a season is pretty good if you throw in the occasional 11-2 type season and contend for the B1G championship.

there has to be some sort of buyout clause that stipulates he doesn't get several of those last few years b/c otherwise it makes zero sense to extend him for that long considering he was well on his way to getting fired until he pulled last year out of his butt.
