Watching Ryan Boyle throughout HS at Dowling, I always saw him as a safety at Iowa. Smart, tough, athletic. The next Sean Considine. After watching him throw in the accuracy drill in this video (pretty sure he's 11), I feel even stronger about this. He has the same throwing motion as Taylor...

I don't expect anyone to agree with me, but I'm just being honest. This very well could be more of a 'me' problem than anything, but it's been bugging me for a long time. The first time I saw Fran when Iowa hired him, I had a visceral reaction to him. I can't explain why, but my gut feeling...

If I hadn't seen with my own eyes the talent and ability that Willies displayed in the Spring game, the open practice and the spectacular catch he made earlier in the year, I would agree with you.

Because their HC is a far better salesman than ours. He shows young talented guys that they can play right away. Remember how many times they targeted Lazard last year, while Willies sat when we played them?

Kurt Stange. This way, people who call Kirk, Kurt, would no longer be able to do so, because it would be too confusing.

We might as well keep this thread going until football starts. Unless Kirk announces that he's throwing away the playbook and replaces it with CJ and Tevaun playing catch all season, is there really anything else to talk about? I remember when my dad referred to girls 6 on 6 basketball as...

I didn't see the game today, but I highly doubt the loss had much to do with officiating. I'm guessing it had more to do with the other team having better players and a better coach. I'm not attacking you personally, but I hate it when Iowa fans bring up officiating. It's the main reason why...

I know this has been discussed before, but this frustrates me every time I watch an Iowa home game on t.v. The seating at Carver was designed like a freakin wagon wheel. What takes up all the room at the center of a wagon wheel? Screaming Iowa students? No, a lotta damn spokes. Just look at...

Hey, Sparky Everything Iowa Football-related is locked in place for 2015. No changes (I assume you missed KF's press conference). The potential changes to any Iowa athletic programs can happen when/if Sally's replacement fires Gary Barta. I don't think anyone has said that Sally leaving will...

The only hope for Iowa athletics to dramatically improve is to get an aggressive AD. Step one just happened. With the right hire, the new president COULD set the hurricane in motion. A little hope for brighter Hawkeye days is desperately needed right now if you haven't noticed.

This is the beginning of the beginning.

Great to see Mr. Bigglesworth come through in the clutch. He has the body and the skills, but has always looked a little unsure of himself. Tonight was huge for him.

I'd be more confident with Marv Cook and his staff than what we have right now.

to swarm Sally Mason's yard in protest every night for about three straight weeks? It would take something drastic like that to force any kind of change sooner than Barta's current plan (or lack thereof). The mood of Iowa football message boards is getting close to that point, but I don't...

He looks like he eats too much food.

I predict more gut-wrenching anguish, but Go Hawks!

I've said before that Sally seems to be content watching Jamie Pollard consistently walk into Gary Barta's kitchen and eat his lunch. Until we get a sports-minded president who's not satisfied with a weak AD, we'll continue to be average.

We have a concrete ceiling called Sally Mason, with no wrecking ball in sight.
