This is incorrect. When Mr. Davis was here and I was in grad school, I went to an MBA event where he spoke. Among the items he mentioned was that Iowa basketball -- at that time -- was the #1 syndicated TV broadcast in the US. He even stated "more viewers than 'Wheel of Fortune'."

I have friend in the athletic dept. When Iowa hired Kirk Ferentz and Steve Alford, I was thrilled with the Alford hire and less so with the Ferent hire, thinking we should have gotten Bob Stoops. My buddy said and I quote "By far the best hire of those tow is Ferentz." I told him he was nuts...

Boise State kicker becomes target of nasty barbs, threats - USATODAY.com

I will leave the details to Kirk and his very capable staff. There would be very few years that this would not seem like a good season. Having said that, I would like to see the Hawks play to win rather than not to lose, especially in these big games. Last year in Columbus we had tOSU on...

It would be interesting to hear from all of the "Bruce Pearl MUST be the next Hawks coach" crowd. Looks like he was good candidate to avoid now.

vbeachawk has it right in my mind if he would flip Ralph and Lute.

Every call is a judgement call. Taunting is an idiot's delight and penalizing it so it hurts is a great idea.

Hartlieb to Cook to beat OSU in the horseshoe.

I don't know that anyone knows who our "best player" is, but for my money it is the guy who still sees the value in passing up an early open 3 for better 2. If we lean on the 3-ball any more, Fran's coaching career at Iowa will end much like Lick's.

I want to call your attention to the current Hawkeye Men's Golf Team -- really the Men's Golf program lead by Head Coach Mark Hankins. I know it is "only Golf," but it is perhaps the most up and coming program of all sports at Iowa. And couldn't we all use a little good news about now...

I was at the Fieldhouse for the Welcome Back party. It was awesome!! We gave up a HUGE home court advantage moving from the Fieldhouse to CHA. It had to be done but when the FH got rockin', it was phenomenal.

If they do this, they might as well add two more rounds and let everyone in. No bubble teams. This is a bad idea. Someone mentioned a split D1 like in football and that makes some sense. The problem is that a Wofford or Ark-Pine Bluff keeps out a decent bubble team. While it is nice to see...

I think TL will get it done, but lets assume Barta cuts him loose and they hire the newest hot thing in coaching circles -- maybe Keno, maybe not (Iowa was not kind to his dad so maybe he doesn't want to come here). We will still be undersized, undertalented and getting screwed by a Big Ten...

I get the point but in this case, since Iowa finished higher in the rankings than Oklahoma, Miami and USC, maybe that comparison baseline is a bad place to start. Iowa will rarely get that "feature" back, but with the team concept, the guys we have in that position now are definitely enough to...
