I'm not doing your homework for you. Boise is a nice example. What you're implying makes my point even stronger. Take the average WR at Boise and stand them next to the average WR at Iowa. One is going to be a swiss army knife player, not great at any one thing, but perhaps passable at...

Um, why hasn't this miraculous CJF ALREADY emerged? Has his transition to butterfly not yet occurred? Or is he not living up to expectations? If he was accustomed to catching as a TE in HS, why's he have to learn how to catch now? He should already know how to block. They sort of start...

WINNER. So, the question is now: Why aren't they flocking here? Figure that out and you are on the way home. :eek:

I think other teams have the pass offense figured out. Other teams >>>>>>> Iowa in terms of pass offense. Actually, it isn't JUST WRs that don't attend Iowa. WR is just the most obvious position in need of talent upgrades. Baylor.............Houston.............Ok...

Hi dood. The guy below you understands.....SATIRE. :eek:

Oh, so it's all OK and no probs. Cool. It's cool to suck.

Wonder how long this guy lasts? Doyle and/or KF's insane live-fire drills will have him at UHC in no time. The Ghost of Jermelle Lewis lives........

I am not a scheme-changer. I am saying there is a HUGH recruiting issue with Iowa's reputation and its associated lack of good WRs. What does Iowa's offense say to WRs? Come here and block, boy. I don't mean just solid Joe Schmoe or Hinkel trypes. Those guys are fine WHEN you have a few...

Oh. So stats it is. Julio Jones: NFL combine 40 yd dash: 4.39 seconds Vertical leap: 38 1/2" CHECK MATE :eek:

Nothing spells Success = mega recruits like Phil Parker. Be still, my heart. About as exciting as watching candles melt in the sun, or listening to the corn borers do their work in the summertime breeze.

Bielema doesn't force his receivers to morph into auxiliary linemen. WRs at Wisconsin are actually there to run fast, get open, catch passes. WRs at Iowa are just extra blockers for the RB, and sort of a passive GPS system so JVB can orient himself on the field. He forgets a lot, so the WRs...

You guys a fools. DJK= troll. DJK was just a poor man's wannabe BJ Cunningham. McNutt=S_L_O_W Um, Blackmon anyone? Julio? Or how about guys like NWs bevvy of short but fast WRs that are constantly open across the field? Waiting to be proven wrong. Love you guys :eek:

Hmmm.......seems Wisconsin has run a pro-set power running scheme for years and yet....they always feature excellent receivers. But not Iowa. Why's that? Why do WRs go to Madison but not Iowa? What do they know? What are they being told? :eek:

:eek:This is a philosophical issue/question. I almost think KF should simply eliminate the WR position at Iowa and reclassify it as Outside ends or some other line position just for blocking. The only reason Iowa uses WRs are really just to clear the secondary away from the offensive line so the...

Having Bielema in the league is not good. He was a ****** at KSU, really emerged with Bobby Elliott during Iwebema's recruitment. Think he is less a ****** now? NO There is also a reason NW and Indiana get better receivers than Iowa....but most Iowa fans are in man love with KF and don't...

I agree with this, partially. Yet, I still believe KF has a systemic problem with recruitment of gamebreakers. Wisconsin has them. Michigan/Michigan State has them. Penn State and OSO have them, as does Boise and practically every other team. We aren't looking at some kind of bad...

If that is correct, the coaching staff at Iowa would be VERY well-advised to study the offensive attacks employed therein instead of using the worn out KF navel-gazing approach. Running the offenses that attract those kids would be advisable. Or at least incorporating aspects of those offenses...

I don't. Look at it this way. It isn't the weather, it isn't the scenery, etc. Football players routinely inhabit locations north of the Mason-Dixon line. The difference is the KIND, or the nature, or that variance. KF has successfully cultivated a reputation as an over-achieving coach...

Regarding next year's offense: We are losing OLs. This, despite KF being the OL guru, right? But I digress.....Would it even matter WHO the hell was blocking if Iowa could feature WRs and TEs who could get downfield in 2-3 seconds? Iowa's scheme is actually smart IF IT HAS THE RIGHT PLAYERS...

I think the "Issue" for most fans is that KF shows NO apparent ability to perceive when the above is unsuccessful. Handoff into the line left, handoff into the line right, then obvious pass play on 3rd and 6, where receivers often don't even cross the 1st down line. That is the offensive...
