I would take those numbers as well. The part that is concerning to me is that NIU is completely one dimensional and the qb was still able to extend plays with his feet. I guess going back to last year's ISU game that is concerning to me. Jantz throws the ball a lot better than NIU's qb and he...

How many 3rd and 8's did the qb keep it and run for a first down...I'm guesstimating at least 4 with one being the long td. If Iowa can't contain this guy, imagine what will happen against t martinez, d robinson or any of the other running qb's in bX

I think Iowa saw a veteran solid secondary today and they may only see 2-3 better the rest of the year. That being said; the offensive play calling was predictable...the execution was just ok and JVB did nothing to impress. The defense was more concerning to me against a one dimensional...

People aren't saying he will be "good". They are saying he will be one of the best to play the position in the history of Iowa basketball. You have one guy predicting 8+ assists per game before he's even stepped on the court. I'm just saying expectations should be tempered a bit because...

I would say most division I pg recruits have a similar skill set and that is why they are recruited at that level....They are all athletic and talented but that doesn't necessarily translate to one of the top 5-6 pg's in Iowa basketball history. Remember Mike Henderson? People put similar...

The guy hasn't played one game yet and you are comparing him to Woolridge, Oliver and Horner. He has potential but man that is setting the kid up for failure. Woolridge had one of the better single seasons in Hawk history, Horner has a lot of career accolades and Oliver played in the NBA for 2...

People inflate their expectations every year around this time due to PTL games. Last year Eric May was going to be the next Luke Recker etc., etc., etc. Gesell has a very balanced skill set, but there is going to be a huge adjustment period for him. There is probably only going to be 1 or 2...

Gesell doesn't have to be a stud next year, he just needs to be solid and hit open shots. Limit his turnovers, play solid defense and run the offense. Marble, White, Oges, Basabe and McCabe are capable of putting up the points needed to win, they just need someone to facilitate that. The team...

I'm liking team 1 with McCabe, Uthoff, Oges and Andre Murphy. If Woodbury contributes that's a bonus, but I think McCabe is a handful in PTL this year. Andre Murphy is a stud in pickup games like the PTL.

Lebron doesnt even guard the best player on the opposing team! Battier guarded Durant for most of the 1st game...Lebron was on Kendrick Perkins! The NBA is soft now compared to when Jordan played. People forget how much of a beating Jordan took against teams like the Pistons....what he did...

Peyton Manning was already the highest paid player at his position and in the NFL. Manning took all he could get but he structured his contract so that they could sign other players. A lot of professionals work with management to structure their contracts creatively so that they can work...

Steele is obviously predicting this based on "potential" and not past results. Most people can agree that Urban Meyer's offense should help Braxton Miller become a better all around player. He was a very highly recruited player for a reason; he just needs the right situation and experience...

I don't think Lebron is overrated by I also don't think this is a "stupid" argument. Lebron took less than max money to go play with two other all stars and win championships. Bosh did the same thing. They both had several offers for max money and they passed to team up with each other and...

Nate Kaeding...the most deadly offensive weapon in Iowa history. I don't think there will ever be a better kicker. Get it to the 35-40 yd line and it's 3 pts

I don't think that's what he meant. Watch some video of the kid and he isn't blowing anyone away with his athletic ability. He is saavy and smart. He is a good athlete for the college level but he probably has average athleticism for his position. (Average means there are some black and white...

IMO he is not on the same level athletically as Oliver. Oliver was unbelievably quick and was a great defender. I remember when Oliver played, as soon as he went to the bench teams would put on the press and then as soon as he returned they would fall back to half court. He was a one man...

He seems like a combination of Oliver and Horner. He probably shoots a bit better than Dean from the outside but not as well as Horner. I would say he is more comparable to Horner but not quite as big. Dean was much quicker offensively and defensively. You're comparing him to two guys that...

Overrated high school player and extremely mediocre college player. There were a couple high school players the year after him that I would have liked at Iowa; Ryan Sears out of Ankeny or Mike Peterson out of Mason City (played with Oliver in high school). Both were better players. Louie was...

In 2001 the 15 seed Hiroshima beat.....oh that may be too much

Cael has two bonus pt machines in Ruth and Taylor. Iowa definitely needs to pick it up the next couple of years to keep pace. McDonough is the only guy scoring a lot of bonus for Iowa right now. I think that could change next year with Ramos, Evans and Telford. Hopefully one of the true...
