THE STAFF

Continuity is king, particularly in college football. Those who do their homework quickly realize that continuity is one of the keys to success.

Chris Doyle -- Iowa's strengh and conditioning coach -- puts tight end Tony Moeaki through a test during the Hawkeyes' 2010 'Pro Day.' Doyle is one of four members of the UI football team's coaching staff who have been on campus double-digit years.

And, the Iowa football program has enjoyed unique continuity with only two head coaches in the last 34 years: Hall of Fame coach Hayden Fry for 20 years followed by the Hawkeyes' current head coach, Kirk Ferentz, who begins his 15th season as head coach at the UI in 2013. It's also Ferentz's second stint in Iowa City. He served as an assistant coach for eight season under Fry during the 1980s.

Continuity at the UI also extends deep into Ferentz's current staff. Like Ferentz, defensive coordinator Phil Parker, and Chris Doyle, the football program's director of strength and conditioning, all also in their 15th season in Iowa City. So, too, is Eric Johnson (recruiting coordinator and assistant defenisve line coach), while defenisve line coach Reese Morgan is in his 14th year on the Iowa staff.
