Greg Davis announced his retirement on Friday after five seasons as Iowa football‘s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
Following a three-point offensive disaster in the Outback Bowl, many were calling for Davis’ job. However, before the Outback Bowl, head coach Kirk Ferentz said that he’d be surprised if Davis wasn’t back in 2017.
For that reason, this news is a huge surprise.
That said, the Hawkeyes ranked 95th in the nation in points per game this season and never finished top 50 in the nation under Davis.
He was known for his predictable play-calling, especially on third downs, and conservative game plan.
