Wish Mark Weisman was on my fantasy team.

Ha! Just saw the other responses. My hunch was correct. It was quite clear on TV the crowd was displeased.

Did JVD have a WR open downfield on that previous play? I heard the crowd groan when he dumped it off...

Yeah. Terrible. Between the blinks it looks like Iowa's defense is awful. Hope it's just the bad reception.

61 year old Dan Fouts could scramble for 8 yards against us. Overall, we have had consistently fine D's, so not trying to bash here, but yeah, containing mobile QBs has been a huge problem in the Ferentz era. The only time I remember us doing well (I am sure there have been more...I don't have...

I think they're booing the officials, but love the negativity. It is a welcome change for this usually optimistic crowd.

Rotten call. Really really rotten call.

Get us for fantom PI, and then looks like a push off by NIll receiver on next play...no call. Grr.

When will we EVER get how to defend a running QB? I don't know why everyone doesn't do this to us. Geriatric Dan Fouts could pick up 8 yards on our D.

Seriously guys. I am not tickled with how the O is moving early, but N Ill. isn't a bad team. I knew this one wouldn't be easy. That said, don't forget N. Iowa (and Arkansas St. for that matter), 2009.

This.

By the way, Graham sounds like a real tool. Stayed a year...apparently TEXTED his players he was leaving. Classy.

Ha! I just thought the same thing. A homecoming. Except I don't think they've even approached Ferentz any of the 15 times in the last 3 years they've had a head coach opening. Besides, I am not sure Pitt could/would pay Ferentz the money or give him the years to bolt. I realize you were being...

Ridiculously premature, but a name to watch: Joe Philbin. Former Iowa OL coach and current GB offensive coordinator. Sure to get an HC shot at some point....young, successful, and with Iowa ties.

But see, James could bolt for the NFL early, and the Chiefs could draft him....It's all been worked out.

So, I guess his son can't play without him being the coach? This seems strange. And last time I checked, NFL teams play on Sunday, meaning it probably wouldn't take the planets realigning for him to return for his son's senior day. Besides, it's not like KC is Miami or San Diego, distance wise...

I know I am opening up a can of worms here, but just curious if Pioli will pursue Ferentz this time around. Seems the timing would be excellent for both, and they could certainly offer him enough to walk away from his Iowa contract.

So if ISU were to beat us, we couldn't use the routine excuse that they were just hyped to beat Iowa because it's their bowl game.

Because, for starters, the job pays about $2M a year. And folks have said the same thing about K State--twice.

With Turner Gill out at Kansas, it means Long will again be looking for work. Will be interesting to see where he lands. I understand he and Ferentz weren't all that close when he was on Iowa's staff, and considering KU's offensive struggles the last two years, I am guessing he wouldn't be...
