Why does he need to worry?

He has like 50 years left on his contract and get's rewarded for being mediocre.

I'm sure Chinander will get a raise as well.

Why would you have 4 LBs in the game on Iowa's final drive when you know they're going to throw the ball? Makes no sense at all. Just atrocious end of game coaching.

I wouldn’t trust Chinander to coach a junior high team’s defense.

$5 Million for one more victory over last year

that one more win was against s Alabama

We won 3 conf games just like last year - with a much easier schedule and finished 6th in the division versus 5th last year - any talk of progress is pure nonsense

Not even mediocre. He has flat out blown goats and swallowed since he got here. He's botched everything.

He called plays like he was frightened to death the whole 4th quarter. He didn't give his offense a chance to compete.

Fear of failure is our special teams motto. we don’t return kick offs. We don’t catch punts. We don’t try to block kicks. Just sit back and get our asses kicked. Junior high football. We start every possession inside the 20 and have to go 90 yards all the time to score. No wonder everyone on offense is injured.

We've blocked more punts this year than the last ten combined, I bet.

Well, we’ve failed for two seasons now. Let’s get up and do it again. Hope we get better.

Are you defending our special teams? They have been atrocious and a clown show.

Return units are abysmal. Kickoff coverage terrible. But they did generate some positive plays with punt blocks. The kicking.... not much coaching can do. You either have healthy players who can make kicks or you dont.

Well Domann is a hybrid. He's been a nickel guy and really is not a bad cover guy. We're so short of safeties right now it's ridiculous. Short of experienced corners as well. That completion to the TE I think by my limited TV view we were in a prevent zone which I HATE. I don't think the personnel was the problem. Ride the horse that got you there and that wasn't playing soft in that second half.

The problem is they don't switch out of 4 LBs ever regardless of the situation. We saw what they were going to do on the non-catch then hit a similar deep pattern right after. It was obvious.

It's crazy that they haven't developed even situational players whose only job is defend the pass better than slow linebackers.

Again, we lost probably our best safety to injury to start the year. We're extremely young back there on the depth chart. Domann is probably as fast as Eli Sullivan who has played a bunch at safety. It's partly the roster that has dictated how we play coverages. My beef is playing so soft on that last series after the reversed catch. I think it scared Chinander in to a prevent but I couldn't tell for sure from the TV view I had.
