In an unprecedented turn of events, Brian Ferentz—son of Iowa football head coach Kirk Ferentz—was named the new offensive coordinator for the Iowa football team Monday afternoon, succeeding Greg Davis, who announced his retirement no fewer than 72 hours ago.

(During the presser Kirk said Davis told him he was retiring last week, which yeah sure whatever.
