You are not crazy. The conference is a little top heavy. Iowa is definitely in that 2nd tier mix behind Michigan, MSU and Purdue. I would be disappointed if they can’t go at least 3-2 in the next 5 conference games.

Is Co and assistant interchangeable or is there a distinction? The reason why I ask is because I listen to those same pods. I can’t remember who…Kakert, Eickholt or one of the usual suspects referred to Wallace as CO and it stuck in my brain for some reason.

Lauck would have got poached if Proctor would have stuck around. Big name schools were sniffing around until Proctor decided to go back to Bama.

Is Wallace the Co-Def.coordinator along with LB coach and Associated HC? In my head for some reason I thought PP had the DC title alone.

Unless you really know what what you are looking at breaking down hand placement and footwork is difficult. I fully acknowledge that if I were to look at PFF or watch the All 22 I would still be talking out of my ass in regards to technique.

Obviously, hindsight being what it is of the 9 losses the last two years…I can’t think of one them where having Proctor over Richman/Lauck would have made a difference.

I thought Oregon or maybe Utah would end up winning it. No complaints from me. Dunker, Stephens and Jones are all high level NFL draft picks…Pieper/Lauck are well on their way.

UCLA @Minnesota Illinois If they can sweep those 3, or go 2-1 when B1G play resumes, that would be huge. KenPom projects Iowa to go 12-8 in conference, which you will take sight unseen. I’m not a Homer, so I will nitpick here and there, but I like where Iowa sits, in a conference that is a...

Petty? Yes. I get it, tho. The fan base wasn’t exactly enduring to the McCaffrey family, and they took a lot of shit. Not condoning the bitterness, but I understand it.

You are a better man than me…congrats.

Not really. If they would have handled their business, they would have been fine.

Not throwing shade at Hurkett/Llewylenn, but they didn’t quite turn out to be the Joe Evans type I thought they would be. You are hoping Lose, Merriweather and Hawthorne can make that leap, that Hurkett/Llewylenn didn’t quite make. I don’t think Iowa can afford the interior d-lineman that we...

Didn’t bother. UCONN looks like they are going to run roughshod over everyone.

Receiver Edge Rusher Interior D-line I’m a broken record at this point. That is my wish list, in that order. If you are not going to pay a quarterback, 2 of 3, if not all 3, have to be a priority.

What? They had a “secret” scrimmage earlier in the year…why not just run it back? Is their friendship that fragile? You need to play teams with a pulse in these neutral site games. This Bucknell team is awful.
