    Best win of the year IMO!

    This win was great for many reasons. One factor that I hope the team remembers - if our defense doesn't get the strip that led to Marble's 3 pointer, they go up by 7 and our hopes for a comeback really fade. Marble's three late offensive moves were fantastic but don't underestimate the role of...

    Check out total score of 2 B1G games tonight

    If my math is correct, the Illini's thrilling victory over MSU added to Wisconsin scintillating win over PSU exactly totaled the final Indiana win over the Hawks. Like all of us, I wish the score of our game had been reversed but I sure do not miss low scoring games like the 2 tonight. Go...

    Miller: Rest of Schedule Favors Iowa

    That was my round about way of stating that this year the B1G is truly bizarre. We have always seen our share of upsets but I don't remember any year with this many surprises. I actually enjoy the predictions but as we read them we need to remember how unpredictable this year has been and will...

    Miller: Rest of Schedule Favors Iowa

    I think we should limit predictions to those who actually predicted 3 weeks ago that we would be tied with IN and WI at 3 and 3. By the way, the prediction should be in writing!

    I have spoken to several former Iowa Football players today

    Jon, it sounds like you are having a very bad day. This kind of sarcasm is (fortunately) not your norm. Stop and take a few breaths and read ALL the comments. There is more concern than criticism. I hope you are not upset that many of us are concerned and hope that we can prevent 12...

    I have spoken to several former Iowa Football players today

    You missed my point - I said I hoped there would be a review of what happened. I simply used statistics (elementary in your opinion) to explain why I am concerned. You are right though about statistics in that they can really be misused. If one player suffered long-term damage we could...

    I have spoken to several former Iowa Football players today

    As a life-long Hawk fan, I want to accept Jon's viewpoint and that of the majority of comments. However as a retired physician who spent 12 yrs on the faculty at the Univ medical school, I must raise another viewpoint. How many football players were involved in the workouts? I doubt that any...

    An example of posts that are being removed

    Jon, I applaud you for doing this and giving an explanation. Anyone who does not understand why this needs to be done should move on to a different site. I am sorry that you need to spend so much time doing police work instead of gathering REAL data to share with us. Keep up the good work!

    It is not only fans but also some writers who do not appreciate the progress this team is making. His article today "Keeler:McCaffery was right: It certainly was not a thing of beauty" accurately quoted McCaffery but changed his press conference from positive to negative. Keeler did make some...

    (Enter Complaint Here) thread

    Not only are too many fans negative about a "work in progress" but some sports writers such as S. Keeler are far too negative in my opinion. While he made a few positive comments most of them were deep in the article and then he ended with a huge negative. I'll not read him again until his...

    The thing I liked about last night's game

    Can't locate the source now but saw a rating of the Big Ten yesterday that (appropriately) had Iowa listed as #11 but added the comment that Iowa was the most improved team in the Big Ten. I think both the ranking and the comment are correct - just tells us how far our program had dropped and...

    Brommer, lose the arm sock...please

    Brommer had 2 assists last night that were fantastic. In addition, I saw more hustle out of him than usual including some key boards. If it takes an arm band to get those results, please do NOT remove it.

    Iowa vs. SIU-E Game Thread

    Maybe my memory is bad but I have seen more positives during this half than I can remember during the last 3 years. Still have much to work on - especially boards - but I love the intensity, the defense, the ball movement, and what looks like a team having fun. I know the Big 10 will be VERY...

    Iowa leads early 21-15

    Our starters were outscored 74-30!!!! According to LBS announcers, Cartright was clearly IA's best player by far. What will starting line up be for next game????

    With 7 min to go in first half - bench has 20 of 27 pts. Stats on site listed on IA site is MUCH BETTER than Yahoo.

    BBall Game streaming(radio) feed out of state?

    Iowa doing much better - on 6-0 run. Second team is again on a positive run!!! Most interesting part of the listen is the noise whenever IA does something right - obviously either a good size crowd or a small rowdy group.
