If this guy was the QB coach that produced 3 of only 5 NFL starters from Texas, with all the studs they have had come through there, that is impressive, as is averaging 39 ppg, tops in BCS conference teams in the decade he was there. He also adapts his offense to his personnel, drops 60 in weakling opponents, and has had a year to reflect and ways to do things, plus brings a new, fresh perspective from a powerhouse program outside the walls of Iowa City. I like it. I keep reading how the only coach more conservative than Okeefe was this guy, but I think he will be fine, and it's not like Kirk was going to go hire a coach from Oregon's offense or something.

Dog bites man.

Query - If he is hired to run KF's offense, does it matter who "he" is?

I've heard Jon say many times the KOK was just running the type of offense that KF wanted. Why will this be any different with Davis?

And let's not forget that he may perhaps have a small chip on his shoulder and feel there's a bit 'o something to prove. That attitude seems to work well at Iowa.

I'll reserve judgement, give the guy a chance and see what he rolls out next year.

Even if Davis runs the exact same offense as KOK had to he has to be a better play caller than KOK. Most Hawkeye fans could call 75% of the plays before they were run under KOK. He was WAY too predictable.

[codydez]

His name is Greg....Jeeeeze cant believe you didnt know that.

Greg Jeeeze? That's a weird name.

here we go with that again :)

I Greg Davis breaks more tendencies or doesnt show as many tendencies as under KOK then it will be an improvement.

If Greg Davis can keep the opposing defense off balance we will be better off.

I think we will see a better 1st down efficiency.

Well GrandpaHawk I hope to see you at the spring game scrimmage.

I hope KF goes back to an all out spring game.

about 30 days until spring drills start.

HAHAHAHAHA. You are so funny. Such a comedian.

HAHAHAHAHA. You are so funny. Such a comedian.

Dont be a Pen 15 head.

[Golfer]

I think Dunder is right. I also do not think KoK left just for the opportunity.

The timing was perfect, and he was able to leave on his own.

Anyway, now let the screaming begin.

[MoseSchrute]

I'm good with the hire.
Two things...
1) was done with KOK no matter what he did.
2) at WORST Davis makes Iowa more unpredictable for a few seasons.

I will second that.
