    Former Players On Ferentz’s Impact

    Thanks for posting this!!! Hell of an article. I admire writers that are story tellers and that can put something together like that. The going back in time and contextualizing everything is so needed when talking about someone like KF. So well done and we should be thanking our lucky stars that...

    Who's Attending Games This Year?

    I wonder how many folks in the NW corner of Iowa make the trip to IC for games. It just takes a hell of a commitment to do that. It's 4-6 hours one way depending on where you're at up there. Fighting traffic, parking how much it all costs etc etc everything Fry rattled off. You can't be poor and...

    Kids Day Recap

    I'd seen some of the clips. I'm actually more then ok with seeing some of the bad/miss handled snaps and exchange issues. That's the time to be having those. Now it's on film they have time to correct it. Those are just reps/chemistry issues that a guy like Mark is going to get down fine once he...

    Iowa's Surprising Depth.

    And DL I think the LB room is crazy deep with talent just not sure how ready the youngsters are to be out there incase they are needed. The DBs that and the OL seems to be a tad thin once you get past the starters. If Lauck takes the bull by the horn for that LT job and they all stay healthy...

    DL "too good to be true"

    Among all the obvious reasons to be sad that Hayden Fry isn't still with us is I think he woulda gotten such a kick out of seeing Eppys family doing so well. He always had such a soft spot for 'Repeat' as he called him. He woulda been those boys biggest fans all 3 of em. I think the daughter...

    DL "too good to be true"

    Iowa has tended to F with people on those. I wouldn't trust it. I thought I'd seen that the Bills had AJ listed at 6'6 and I've seen pics of those two standing next to each other and they are within an inch of each other if not eye to eye. I'd guess that both are closer to being between 6'4 and...

    DL "too good to be true"

    I heard he was running with the 2s saturday... So that'll put him in the rotation to play quite a bit. Which was pretty much what his big bro did too. With as deep and good as the DE spots seem to be for him to be cracking that 2 deep already pretty much just confirms how ridiculously talented...

    So who's all nicked up so far?

    Agree... Even with everyone healthy that spot has question marks. Hall being out for any length of time isn't good. So we have about 3 wks to get guys healthy. We really need the DBs and Oline to stay healthy. We have depth all over the place everywhere else. More so then those anyway

    Higgins!!!

    Yeah he had 3 or 4 tackles that pick and that knock down you mentioned. Made an impact pretty much every possession he was out there. Typical Higgins being Higgins out there

    Higgins!!!

    Dude played quite a bit last night for Baltimore and had multiple big plays including an interception where he dropped back in zone and made a great play on the ball where he had to leap for it. He's going to be on an NFL roster the guy is just a football player. That was fun to see

    So who's all nicked up so far?

    The names I've heard on a pod so far is Stephens and Pittman. I don't know to what extent at all. Just that they've been missing time. Has anyone else heard more about them or anyone else so far? Fort Kinnick is pretty tough to crack so I'll assume we'll learn more about that Saturday.

    Swing and Miss............... yah think???

    Must be clickbait. He left on ND too. Arguably the actual top 2 TE U schools he didn't even have in top 5. Makes one wonder where on the list he'd have them... But to me I bet it's just a lazy oversight. I've never heard of the guy before and now I know why

    Who will be starting running back

    Both of those are crazy good YPC avgs. Anything 4.4 or above is great. Limited touches or not that's getting it done and I look forward to how they do. I think the running game should be above avg again. I don't see why not.

    Gronowski

    Hmm... I could see flipping Stanley and Chandler. The 2-4 guys I could see shuffled up any kind of other way too. The 7-14 guys are pretty much dead on. I was so disappointed with how bad JC ended up being with all the hype he had with that class he came in with.

    Caden Buhr

    There's no way of predicting how HS kickers are gonna do. The pressure and bright lights of D1 ball is something you can't gauge until they go out there. Sometimes kickers just slump for whatever reasons. It's nice to get a guy with a big leg capable of 55ish but as far as accuracy goes I damn...
