Peyton Manning is going to be switching to WR?

No but your WR's will look a hell of a lot better if they have Manning throwing to them.

not if you're being overlooked in NCAA...if he succeeds in the NFL, he'll have a choice to come back and be a head coach in college or, with the crazy turnover in the NFL, you could see him rising in the ranks there......step up, no doubt.

its sad you had to explain that to him/her

It is what it is. He gets to live in a land of beaches, bikinis, and no winter, close to his daughter.

If KOK wants to be QB coach all the power to him. His resume sux as a QB coach/guru.

I think of it as an antipodal move in non-Euclidean elliptic geometry.

Lets see.... 58 years old, maybe 6-8 years left to coach. Miami vs Iowa City weather, no recruiting, pay about the same or better. Have money in the bank from last few years. Push at worse. Wish him well.

[CRwrestling]

the opportunity to coach football at its highest level is a step down? ridiculous. of course the nfl is a step up from the big ten!

also, if he wasnt a great coach philbin wouldnt have given him this job.

[BilikinHawk]

Maybe he prefers to take his talents to South Beach.

[HawkAttack]

Of course some people on here think it's a step down. This is the same fan base that thinks there is a national media conspiracy to keep Iowa athletics down.

Even if he isn't making quite as much money, the schedule and his responsibilities won't be nearly as strenuous as an OC in college.

It wont be a rushed decision. You know Kirk has known this is coming right? It's not like Friday came and sent kirk scrambling.

you must be stupid.

[HawkeyeMcNutt]

I'm with duff. He wasn't known for manicuring quarterbacks into great young men on and off the field or anything..

[DuffMan]

I've asked this before and no one has been able to answer it...

List the B10 schools that have had better qb play over the last 12 years than Iowa. It's a pretty short list.
