The end of an era for the Hawkeyes, this game will be the last for offensive coordinator, Brian Fence after being in the role since 2017, interim ad, Beth gets announced back in October that he would not be returning after this season, which came as a bit of a surprise to both Kirk and Brian Fence in terms of the timing. Brian has been heavily criticized during his time in Iowa for his unit being among the worst offenses in the country. The Hawkeyes are ranked last nationally in total offense this season as he reflects on his final game, he wants the attention to be on the players and what they've accomplished this season frankly. Um Probably what I resent the most about this situation is that the focus has come off of our football players who have really accomplished some tremendous things this year. Um And it's gone on to things that just quite simply don't matter, they're trivial and silly. Um in my opinion, and, you know, for whatever reason, the focus has gone there, uh instead of, of, of on a bunch of players who've worked really hard, overcome a lot of adversity and dealt with a lot of nonsense, uh, to win 10 football games and put themselves into position to win the 11th. This program is not about one person. It never has been and it never will be right. So, I just feel fortunate that I've been a part of this place and I've been around the people that I've been around had a chance to work with those people. The search for a new OC is underway but Kirk F has said even though there's certain things they want to improve on, there won't be any drastic changes. We will have all of your Citrus bowl game coverage for you tomorrow. That game will be shown right here on local five at noon, central time reporting from Orlando Rena Garcia, local five sports.
