Tommy Rees - Offensive Coordinator

[NDRock]

McCarthy isn't good. Marginally better than Buchner. JJ is another missed Eval. Not good. Add him to Buchner, Phil, Allar, Wimbush, etc etc

Pretty sure the NFL will disagree with you.

 

[NDWarrior]

Maybe the new 'bama coach and he mutually work it out and he stays

 

[Ndaccountant]

Gotta figure he goes to LSU? Or has Sloan been announced as the OC?

That would be a kick in the nuts for Tommy.

good enough to win a title this year though. He could have been the difference for us.

Trent Dilfer won a superbowl - what is your point here?
My point was - Buchner was a bad eval by Tommy... JJ was also a bad eval...Neither of them were good. Tommy missed on all of the above.

 

[DomerInHappyValley]

I'm really proud of Thomas.

He broke Saban in a year.
ND man through and through.

I will hear no more insults against him and I shall utter no more.

For now he may return at some point.

 

[Giddyup]

Iowa needs an OC. So does a Ohio State

 

[ShamrockOnHelmet]

OC.. of Lacrosse team.

My punchline was “Track”, but this is acceptable

He's a projected 1st round pick. You might not like the guy and think he's a hippie douchebag, but saying he isn't good is pretty dumb.

So was EJ Manuel. Tons of 1st round QBs bust

sorry, thought I was clear when I said he was good enough to win a title. That means, he's good enough to win a title. He's not a bad eval.
Also, Trent Dilfer isn't a bad QB. No one is talking about Tom brady here.

Tommy's punishment for giving us Parker this year should be to coach Iowa's offense.

 

[Giddyup]

MCCarty isn’t accurate enough to be a successful NFL quarterback.

Clark, Pyne, Buchner when BK was coach over Tommy
Hartman, Minchey, Carr when Freeman was coach over Tommy.
Makes more sense that BK made the call on the bad evals. He liked low hanging fruit.

You want Iowa to be working offense and top defense?

 

[pumpdog20]

You want Iowa to be working offense and top defense?

Umm no... the defense is decent, but it's propped up by playing 5 teams in the bottom 18 in total offense. They played 3 good teams and gave up:

PSU 397 yards 31 points
Mich 213 26
Tenn 383 35

Tenn had a back up true freshman QB and opt outs. Iowa had zero opt outs, but admittedly didn't have Dejong The Michigan stats looks nice unless you watched the game and saw all the short fields Michigan got to work with after a big PR and all the turnovers. Plus Michigan knew they won after the first field goal.

One thing I always tell the Hawkeye faithful who brag about the defensive stats, is that they also got to play their first team defense all game. Us with real good teams had to put up with 2nd/3rd stringers in blow outs. LOL

In regards to the offense, not even Tommy Rees is helping that offense.

He may well be a bust in the NFL but the guy lost one game in college, won a NC, and will probably be picked in the first couple of rounds. To say he was a “missed evaluation” and comparing him to PJ and Buchner is stupid (I know you didn’t say this).

He was also learning on the job. It was a really poor/lazy hire by Brian Kelly.

 

[Giddyup]

Freeman is/was learning on the job. Sometimes if you recognize talent you’ve got to shoot your shot.

Tommy still has a bright future. Took that rag tag group with mediocre receivers and a new qb to the playoffs, pretty good all in all.

You'd think he was OC at Rutgers

 

[IrishLax]

OC.. of Lacrosse team.

NOT. QUALIFIED.

 

[ColinKSU]

NOT. QUALIFIED.

Wouldn’t be the first time that wasn’t a problem for him.

 

[stlnd01]

Rees should go to the NFL now. That has long been his destiny. 'Tis the (NFL hiring) season. All that.

Though of course LSU is still looking for an OC, aren't they? 🙃

Came here to basically say this.


Well done to that young man!

Rees putting that ND degree to work, 4D chess. Learned Saban's secrets, then slayed the king. Wonder how much he paid off that Center for every bad snap against Michigan?

Double agent Rees.
