Lots of talk on Twitter from sportscasters in KC saying KF could go to the Chiefs if Pioli sticks around. Just speculation and rumors, but wanted to know what others thought of this. If you're in Memphis, have a good time!

I dont pay attention to it anymore. They have been saying this for years now and nothing has ever happened. If he goes, then I will start discussing it.

lol. Sorry, I know that there are some good, decent Chiefs fans who post on this board, and they don't deserve this, but god I hope this ends up coming true. It would make me smile immensely.

Would be very surprised - KF can meander through mediocrity and get paid boat loads - why leave that gig.

Then again, if he sees it circling the drain over there, why not get out now? Iowa has huge question marks for next year, and a tougher schedule. His buyout another year smaller. If he posts another 4-8 clunker of a season, he could be fighting for his job in 2014.

If he goes pro, and gets similar money to a guy like Greg Schiano, (5 years 15 mil) it's not like he's leaving a whole lot of money on the table. And if it doesn't work out, he can always come back to the college ranks. Other schools will give him a try, for sure.

His youngest son is walking on for the Hawks next year, if IRC. Thats the one thing I can see holding KF back.

I said I was sorry! I don't bear any specific ill will toward the Chiefs. I'd be just as happy if the rumors were about Buffalo or Jacksonville. Although admittedly, the proximity of Kansas City to Iowa City would be icing on the cake.

Why do you want Ferentz to leave? That's what a majority of Hawkeye fans want. I hope he's there until he dies.

Agree, but I'm hopeful Pioli is gone. I think it's pretty clear his style isn't cutting it in KC.

Continually bringing in backup quarterbacks who are bad and letting them be starters is a pretty bad style.
