Ferentz: “This was a disappointing season” (video)

Iowa Football Coach Kirk Ferentz

COACH FERENTZ:  First of all, welcome everybody.  I apologize ahead of time.  I was asking Steve what’s out there, and it sounds like there are a lot of good rumors going around.  This won’t be as interesting and dramatic as maybe people want it to be.  But, nonetheless, just thought it was a good way to wrap the year up and field some questions and we’ll get together in February.

First of all, I want to congratulate the award winners on the team.  The All-Big Ten team came out on Monday or Tuesday, whenever that was, I think Monday.  And certainly of note, Micah Hyde not only being first team, but winning the Tatum‑Woodson Defensive Back of the Year Award, and following up on Marvin’s award last year, that’s really a prestigious thing and a nice highlight to a very good career.  A guy that played four years and did a great job in a lot of phases and was a really valuable team member, so that’s nice recognition.

He being a first team guy, James Ferentz being second team, and C.J., Anthony Hitchens, Mike Meyer, Matt Tobin, Joe Gaglione, and James Morris all getting honorable mention, and James Vandenberg, the Sportsmanship Award.  Certainly nice honors for all of those guys.

Now just looking back really quickly, and I’ll field questions.  Unlike trying to put a spin on a $15 trillion deficit, I’m not going to go down that road.  Bottom line, this was a disappointing season in terms of record, and the fact that we’re not playing in a bowl game.  There really isn’t a way to put a positive spin on that.  It is kind of what it is.
