    At least KF is aware that he has a problem under center

    I came away with a slightly different take from KF's comments and thought it merited a thread. KF usually gives nothing away in post-game pressers. But he definitely slipped for a moment last night before recovering back into deadpan mode. Q. Was there any point late in the game where you...

    Scouting Preview: Iowa vs Penn St

    Gamefilm's analyses are always thought-provoking and the man can flat out write. This is obviously going to come off as a back-handed compliment (of the "your backhand is really good for a woman" type) but I will say it -- the fact that he played D1 ball amplifies the impressiveness of his writing.

    Penn State 4th Downs

    I respectfully disagree. If Iowa plays 3rd and long differently, we would be transferring risk onto our team...letting them have a better chance of converting on 3rd down itself. I believe Iowa should do what it takes to put them in 4th down situations (long or short) and then make them...

    Scout.com Midseason Review (Hitchens and Meyer)

    When the losses are to ISU, CMU, adjectives like abysmal are warranted. In any case, I was trying to actually portray things in a positive light. They picked 2 AA from Iowa despite its record, usually multiple picks are made from powerhouses with gaudy records. It demonstrates the national...

    Scout.com Midseason Review (Hitchens and Meyer)

    Amazing to see that Iowa has 2 AA players on the list despite the abysmal w-l record at this point. Future looks decent as long as we keep improving. I also suspect that a lot of 3rd team guys are on that list just because they didn't want to fill the entire 2-deeps with Alabama. Also...

    Ferentz said Weisman is Medically Cleared to Play

    If KF has shown us anything, he is quite comfortable with playing less than 100% starters (evidence: Tate, Coker) if they say they are good to go. I expect Weisman to be out there against psu based on Jon's commentary. And I bet Weisman is thinking that Canzeri and Garmon just might put up a...

    Ferentz on Weisman

    If not playing this week gets the Golem back to 100%, I would prefer seeing hay-straw and hummingbird take the field against psu. Don't want to see a nearly but not there guy busting his *** determinedly but ineffectually (like Drew Tate, Coker etc)
