I'm glad you are ok with conference championships and rankings, rankings mean nothing to me and the selection committee as well. he may be a UNI guy, but his position coaches leave to other FCS schools (including rival schools) and we can't be a dominant team. We have squeaked bu this season and we have so much more potential. So yes, I think his job should be on the hot seat.

      No need to back anything up. Your posts make it evident for those with more than a junior high education.

        I was not around during the Dunbar days. However, we have consistent playoff appearances and a lot of talent so I think we could get a decent coach in here. Maybe I was quick to say fire him, but start heating his seat up..

          I don't have a list. I don't know too many high level coaches personally so I can't make that claim. Like I just said, maybe I was quick to the get rid of Farley, but maybe give him a warning shot to maybe get this team to the top, or at least close again..

              Trust me when I say that you don't want to get rid of Farley. But yes... changes ELSEWHERE need to be made.
              "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

                Play calling under Farley' watch has been more than questionable.

                  its doesnt make sense to get rid of farley.....clearly he is one hell of a recruiter. in my opinion it is time to find a different offensive coordinator. we have too many players w/ speed to regularly have problems moving the ball, especially inside the 10 yd line. our lack of ball movement puts our defense on the field way to long and we get run down.

                    So another personal attack rather than backing up your comment. I don't wear purple shades so I'm an idiot? I think mediocrity isn't ok so I'm an idiot. I am one week from being a UNI alum so I guess my UNI education is equal to a jr. high education.

                      I'm glad and that's great. But how did it turn out? And how has it been since? We have not lived up to potential.

                        Like what? Not attacking you at all, just want some ideas put into my head. Obviously our play calling sucks. Our defense has been soft lately. Our players are never prepared. Our recruiting is great though.

                          I did back it up. Your statements were idiotic and from someone without much perspective on the nature of FCS football. I can tell you that Farley is the LAST change that needs to be made in that program.

                          If you are really going to put this game on the coaching staff, you may need to revisit your education...

                            While I completely agree the "fire Farley" talk is stupid, I could really give a rat's a$$ how much of a community guy he is. That and two bucks gets you a coffee at Starbucks, and it sure as hell doesn't help you concoct a defensive scheme.

                            We're getting whipped tonight by a team that's dominating us at the line of scrimmage. All the NE Iowa native crap in the world won't change that. Neither will his UNI diploma.

                            You keep Farley around because he's a good coach, not because he fits someone's idea that only a native son should be here.

                              You were lucky. I'll take my chances with Farley and BAP's change.

                                Don't overreacted as yes it would be nice to be National Champs, but only 1 team can do that each year. As someone stated above if you have forgotten the Dunbar years there is plenty of room to go down and just a little room to go up.

                                That being said our offense has the talent to put up 40 a game and we have not been close to that all year. May need to look at some changes in that area...
