    Spencer Petras joins Fresno State as analyst.

    Things are moving in the right direction for Brian. Sorry if you don't like him, but I'll always supportive of anyone who graduated from Iowa (including Spencer). I think there's a 80% chance Brian goes to a power program in the next 4 years. Yes, that's a long slog back to the power level...

    Spencer Petras joins Fresno State as analyst.

    I bet you a dozen or more try to land ine of thise offensive analyst positions on the Fresno State staff, and Brian got to fill it with "his guy", which means he's got some pull within the building.

    Spencer Petras joins Fresno State as analyst.

    That's fair criticism, the numbers don't lie. It would appear that Matt Entz is willing to look past all of that, and that he has a lot of faith in Brian's ability to coach O line, such that he's letting him bring in his own analyst/assist of choice. I imagine BF and Spencer bonded a lot...

    For Brian himself, but also for Kirk. Kirk's legacy took a bit of a hit with the whole Brian as O coordinator, Barta as his "supervisor", and as Brian QB coach fiasco. So the more success Brian has outside of Iowa and away from Kirk, the more Kirk's credibility is restored.

    Spencer Petras joins Fresno State as analyst.

    His X profile says "Assistant Offensive Line Coach". https://x.com/spencerpetras During his medical year at Iowa he was supposedly working with the Oline. It looks like maybe he's trying to establish himself as an Oline coach, which is smart if he wants to leverage his ties to Ferentz...

    Norvell new RB coach

    Jay is smart, has been an OC and a head coach, and has been a position coach on the offensive side for every position except RB. This guy knows offense. I think he'll do just fine.

    Nebraska fans really have a problem with Iowa

    Not worried, most Nebraska fans couldn't find Iowa City if you started them on I-80 and told them to drive East.

    Jackson Stratton

    Interesting that he didn't go G4/5. Probably has a good chance to start at USD. Nice weather too.

    Jay Norvell joins staff

    The nice thing is that, under the new rules, the analysts no longer have to pretend that they aren't providing on the field coaching anymore (they all did this for years). Now they can coach the players, they just can't do off-campus recruiting. I hope he shares some of his WR coach knowledge...

    Feb 20, 2026 Update: Curt Cignetti agrees to new deal ($13.2M/yr thru 2033). Now Highest Paid Coach in the Country

    Yes, and I think Allen even took a reduced buyout (probably got the money faster, and no offset clause). It's sorta crazy because Tom Allen looked like the best coach they had in a decade plus. And yet they fired him because they knew at the end of the day he was a mediocre "rah rah" guy only...
