    Anyone at the game today

    We were there for the entire game. I wouldn't have said it was quiet. Just like any other game, if there's any spark or momentum from the team, the crowd returns it in spades. There just wasn't much happening in the second half. I will say people seemed much calmer than usual. Maybe it was the...

    Not enough Ferentzes

    So according to the link, Brian Ferentz isn't supervised by the Head Coach? Sure.

    SIAP Brett Greenwood update

    That post about the American Flag being flown in his honor gets me every single time.

    Assistant football coach position open at Iowa

    I've heard from two reliable sources that the answer to your bolded question is an emphatic "yes." Take it for what it's worth.

    Matt Roth is in town currently.

    When was your first Hawkeye football game?

    1991 vs Hawaii. I grew up on the NFL and knew nothing about college football. I haven't missed many games since.

    Is Barry Alvarez Really Getting 1/12 of Bielema's Salary to Coach Bowl?

    Maybe it's just a middle finger salute to BB.

    Barta on fence about Black Friday game

    The hospital runs on weekend hours on Friday after Thanksgiving. Most M-F 8-5 employees have the day off.

    Excellect BHGP article with (some) defense of Greg Davis

    Wow, well written article. It almost makes me happy we retained Davis. I'm not sure Davis fully deserves to be the fall guy in all of this but the very fact that Ferentz kept him shows us what we all know: Ferentz does not adapt. My anger over retaining Davis has almost nothing to do with...

    What if....

    Who in the world would actually work deals to keep Davis here? KF never gives up control. I doubt he's going to start now.

    Ferentz End of Season Transcript

    I got through the first part and realized two things. (1) He is giving his passive agressive middle finger to everyone earlier than usual and (2) He's a republican!

    Greg Davis staying?!?

    No one can argue that Stanzi lost his mojo his senior year. His numbers were good but he didn't display the fire he had his junior year. He didn't even come close. He played scared, just like Ferentz. You could argue that effect is seen through several areas of Iowa football. They seem to come...

    The Greg Davis chatter

    1. I've heard he doesn't want it (take it for what it's worth...came from a mutual friend). 2. Why is everyone so sure Soup would be a great OC? Our receivers haven't been lighting it up this year. He benefited from DJK and McNutt's talent for sure but we had the most drops in the Big last year...

    Because of the weather and the futility of this years team

    I would have said 10% or a little less. As far as I could tell, they were concentrated in the East stands and in the North endzone. Iowa needs to do a better job of pushing visitors up off the field. They were a relatively quiet bunch and I expected way more celebrating in the end. Iowa fans...

    Greg Davis to resign at end of year

    You may be right but right now, I don't see how we're any better next year. Whether it's fair or not, if we throw GDGD under the bus, I can stick my head in the sand and imagine that things just might get better in August.

    Greg Davis to resign at end of year

    I've heard from more than one person she's not happy here. Please God, let it be true!

    Jon, I took it to mean he has a Jack Handy positive affirmation calendar at home, which he consults each morning.

    Does Anyone Feel Like The Ship Will Be Righted Come Next Year?

    Short answer? No. I really don't think this ship is going to be righted by this staff. I've been a huge Ferentz supporter over the years but he seems to be slipping behind the game. It would be great to eat crow this time next year. Until then, we'll just pad our bowl game fund.

    Ferentz needs to apologize to Vandenberg

    I agree fully with your first point Desert. More than once this season I've wondered if it would have been more humane to bench the kid. He has clearly put his heart and soul into this team for 5 years. He doesn't deserve to be dogged or called names.
