Coaching changes: coaches hired and fired, comings and goings

Good luck to ISU finding a coach who can equal Rhodes's record, much less improve on it.

Just sayin': 32-54 really isn't that good. Kist Ferentz (at Iowa) has been 126-85 overall record, 75-60 conference record at Iowa over the past 17 years. Both Iowa and Iowa State are "Power 5" conference members and have the same recruiting issues, etc. I do think there is a possibility that they may be able to get a coach that can do better. I'm sure there are some very good coaches in some lesser conferences that could be lured to Ames. However, it is always a "crap shoot" hiring a new guy; you never know how it will actually work out.

So,

Iowa State is looking to hire Tim Beck?
Iowa State is looking to hire Tim Beck, really?
Iowa State is looking to hire Tim Beck, gosh, what a loss that would be for us.
Iowa State is looking to hire Tim Beck, what a feather in their cap for them, if, indeed
Iowa State is looking to hire Tim Beck, and they succeed.

And remember EVERYTHING you read on the internet (especially on Buckeye Planet) is always true.

Both Iowa State and Syracuse are in a bidding war to hire Tim Beck as their next head coach.

From the OWH here:

http://www.omaha.com/huskers/barfkn...cle_f880c980-e7bf-5151-943a-d214ebc2d5c3.html

» This is from the “Leopards Don’t Change Their Spots” Dept.:

When Tim Beck was offensive coordinator at Nebraska, criticism noticeably bothered him. The flak he took last year — and rightfully so — after the Huskers barely escaped an upset by McNeese State sent him into hiding.

His offensive players dutifully did interviews after games and practices in his absence, but the $750,000-a-year coach couldn’t take it. A full month passed after the McNeese game before he took another question.

Now, Beck is co-offensive coordinator at Ohio State. Coach Urban Meyer said through the season that Beck has become more central to the Buckeyes’ play-calling.

OSU had one of its ugliest offensive showings in a decade in Saturday’s loss to Michigan State. The Buckeyes produced five — count ’em, five — first downs and 132 total yards.

So who came to the interview room to explain what happened on offense? Quarterback J.T. Barrett owned it. Tailback Ezekiel Elliott was there, too.

And Beck? Surprise, surprise, he was nowhere to be found. In fairness, he isn’t an interview room regular, but it would have been the time to step forward and deflect the grilling his star players faced.

Maybe Beck was busy starting his job search. He’s also Ohio State’s quarterbacks coach. The regression by two stars at that position, Barrett and Cardale Jones, won’t fly with a guy as results-oriented as Meyer.

Also, pay attention if Meyer plays Elliott this week after his Heisman Trophy candidate pouted and acted out during the game and trashed the game plan afterward.

We’ll see if Meyer read his own book that he recently toured to promote during an open date: “Above the Line: Lessons in Leadership and Life from a Championship Season.” It’s touted as “remarkable lessons in team building.”
