    Riding the bus home with a timeout

    Absolutely cannot take that turnover with a timeout in the pocket. Very poor coaching and team play down the stretch. Gave away the game. That is all. End rant

    Espn game day signs in Indy

    How about a picture of Paul Finebaum next to Dumbo the elephant. For those of you that have never seen a photo of Finebaum (highly unlikely here) he's got ears so big they probably scrape the door frame as he walks through.

    Drew Ott

    He has played in 4 games. If the rule only accounts for regular season games that is more than the three games and 33% of games. If the rule counts postseason then he is below 30% games. So maybe he could get a medical hardship?

    Des Moines Trip Advice

    Hey all, Wasn't sure what forum to post this in, but I just had a question to ask anyone familiar with Des Moines. My fiancé, some friends, and I are going to Adventureland in Des Moines tomorrow, and it looks like rain. We were just wondering what fun things there are to do indoors in the area...

    Bracketology 2/27

    http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology Would take this in a heartbeat. This is about as good as a spot Iowa could end up with IMO. 9 seed against 8 seed Georgia first game. Match-up with the Zags second round. Sweet sixteen match-up against Wichita State or Notre Dame. Not to...

    Probably going to get hated on for this...

    Ya, you never know. People here act like a new coach will guarantee Iowa the playoffs every year. People don't like to hear that it isn't gonna happen.

    That money will always be there now. Just saying that Ferentz resurrected this program, and no doubt contributed to the financial production of the football program.

    Lay off the players.

    Couldn't agree any more, people calling for players to get hurt is disgusting. The fact that the players started with quick scoring in the last two games but slowed down in each game, makes me believe it is all coaching and not being able to make adjustments as the game wears on.

    No doubt it generates $$$, not sure what the numbers are but I'm curious how much money the program was generating at the time Ferentz was hired compared to now. He has brought the program back to where Fry had it before his last years, and has maintained what I would call success barring a...

    On the Bright Side, Recruiting is Going Well, Right?

    May have a decent shot at that 4 star running back that just de-committed from USF...so I guess you could say we got that going for us lol

    Is this Our Worst OL Under Ferentz?

    No, this is not the worst o-line under Ferentz. It just looks like it, because most plays are short yardage allowing defenses to stay in the box. Also, we tell the defense were running half the time, because every check down is a stretch left or right. I don't care how good or bad your line is...

    I wish I was Barta, guy has it made no matter what happens. :D

    Probably going to get hated on for this...

    That's my point, bringing in a successful coach doesn't mean that success will translate to a new program. Rich Rod goes to Michigan and craps the bed, then goes to Arizona and just beat Oregon a couple weeks ago and Arizona is on the rise. You just never know. I just think that at Iowa, a few...

    I agree that we could bring in a quality coach, but that doesn't guarantee success. Look at B-ball, brought in Lackluster after Butler's success and that didn't turn out so well... And at the time he was hired, most believed he was a "quality" coach
