Except, as you know,  Sullivan against NW also had 8 carries for 41 yards and a rushing TD.  He used his legs to keep getting first downs,  keeping drives going long enough for Kaleb Johnson to go on his 3 long TD runs.

Many were thinking Sullivan was going to be named the starter against Wisc even if Cade McNamara was actually healthy for the game.

yes, quite likely an upgrade at the QB position

Maybe the guy with the short hair in this video clip is on the short list for for assistant coach in Iowa City. He is the father of a recruit, but other fathers of recruits aren't standing near the entrance of the Hawkeyes' locker room in this video, and he does have significant coaching experience at the high school academy level, and FBS level.

Yours is a very humorous post. 
Iowa has a long history of converting high school QBs into players at other positions under Kirk Ferentz . I wonder what Ryan Fitzgerald's role will be? I did not realize until now Ryan Fitzgerald committed as a "preferred walk-on." I thought Iowa offered a scholarship.
It is very odd to see Pat Fitzgerald present at a Northwestern-Iowa game, hanging around the Iowa tunnel near the Iowa locker room.  After a break, most college coaches who endure a scandal, end up coaching in college again. Iowa's D-Line coach turns 64 this month.

Pat Fitzgerald has been LB and DB coach in the past but I'm sure he could coach the D-Line

  Iowa's D-Line coach turns 64 this month.

Yes, the assistant defensive line coach,  Jay Niemann,  is 64 years old.

Also just as an FYI

Iowa's defensive line coach,  Kelvin Bell,  is only 41 years old.

Iowa's defensive coordinater,  Phil Parker,  is 61.

LB coach and assistant head coach,  Seth Wallace,  is 45 years old.

Special teams coordinater Lavar Woods is 46 years old.

Head coach Kirk Ferentz is 69 years old

Pat Fitzgerald is 49 years old.

so, Pat might be interested in replacing Phil or Kirk?

Maybe,  but he ain't the only one that may be interested.   

Seth Wallace and Lavar Woods are both strong internal candidates too.
