Hey...that's awesome! I like the direction the football team is headed with him at the helm. I think he knows exactly how to prepare this team to go righ back where we all want to be. GO PANTHERS!!! Congratulations Coach Farley!

[Matt Trump]

That is awesome. He has definitely earned it.

[Marc Wigim]

The additional funds were made available by private donations.

This would be what made me the most pleased. I'm glad that people are able to step up here in the Cedar Valley. Very cool.

[Newsbreaker]

There is a little money in this town, and winning will continue to make it available to do this sort of thing. Farley deserves it, no doubt, and I hope he's here for a very long time to come.

Well-deserved! I'm happy to see this.

[MeOW!]

And if he beats Iowa, Iowa State, Nebraska, or Texas...he gets a contract for LIFE! Go Panthers!

Texas is a tall order, ISU and Nebraska would be upsets, but I can see UNI giving them all they want.

Now if we can get members of the Inner Circle to break loose with some money to aid the study of history and those intrepid, underpaid graduate students who struggle to both learn and teach.

Seriously though, this is great news. I'm glad that the school was able to lock Coach Farley in for a good chunk of time with a better base salary. I can't think of anything bad that could come of this, except that more money will have to be spent to go to playoff games.

Great News!! Only 182 days until Panther Football at Drake! That could be a tough ticket.

[UNI92]

Are they playing Nebraska in the near future?

We need to get one of those count down timers for the front page to run off the time until football season starts. Or at least I need to get one for my desk top.

There is one for Firefox, if you use that browser...it's called CountDown Clock.

Ok I'm excited also so I put the countdown on the homepage.

If they aren't, they should consider it. Close to home and a very, very cool place to play.
