Wisconsin and Michigan State modeled their program after Iowa? So did Alabama and the New England Patriots.
Jesus actually consulted Fry on how to set up the Heaven Pearly Gates offense and defense.

FWIW, I have some doubts that the triple option will work against defenses already geared to defend space and speed.
There's a power part of running the triple option though and hitting teams hard between the tackles can still challenge smaller, faster defenses. There is also a ball control mentality with that offense that would keep Baylor and Oklahoma offense on the sideline. It could be just the type of scheme that could have ISU competitive in every single game. Big 12 defenses would have little experience against an attack like that. Niumatalolo and Willie Fritz(Georgia Southern) would both run that offense FWIW.
No more talented?
OL? Nope. Note even close
RB? Nope.
WR? probably overall but Iowa is still solid. Tevaun Smith is = to ISU's "best"
TE? Not even close.
QB? "Maybe at QB"? What are you smoking? Maybe?
Wow.

Is anyone else tired of the "Iowa State ties" candidates already? It happens every time there is a coaching search.
Fact is Loney, Alford, Sage, and several others have no resume for a Power 5 job. They only get mentioned because of a previous stint with Iowa State.
We've sucked for 100 years. We don't have to have someone with ties to Iowa State IMO.
You might be the dumbest poster on here and that's saying something
Steve Lonely has a better resume than any coach you are going to get by far. You are clueless as usual.
Unfortunately his window probably passed as a head coach at isu.
It's a nice title. But if you aren't an OC or a DC you are a position coach.

According to the knobs on here, Tom Herman was a figurehead too. It's funny how he kept winning and OSU's offense went to pot when he left.
He was at least labeled the OC.
If you want to argue that Tony Alford is really the OC, then I guess that's your right. His job title is running backs coach.

For the record, I do believe that we will hire several position coaches.
Rhule of Temple would be an absolute home run hire.Lot of similar names as mentioned elsewhere but here is the Ames Tribune's long list of candidates:
