Just when you thought this state couldn’t get any worse, we have this “Oh,yeah? We’ll watch this” moment! Maybe if they held Iowa under 60, he would be extended through 2050.

If you are not going to fire him, you have to extend him through the current recruiting class.

Once again another solid financial decision for a state known for fiscal responsibility

I bet his buyout is much cheaper than the $12MM it was....

Another stellar football decision for a program whose best days were when Red Grange played...

The attorney/agent who represents Lovie is worth every dime Lovie is paying him or her.

This is 100% accurate. It's hard to imagine but the extension gets him gone faster.
