It would be silly to not consider it, but I don't think I would change my commitment. I guess it would depend on the circumstances. I mean if I knew Iowa had scholarships available and waited to Jan 23rd to offer, no I wouldn't change.

I would still rather go to a school that wanted me than a dream school where I was an afterthought. I guess anything is possible, but I choose to be positive about it.

What makes you say that? If, as Mose said, Nebraska was unwilling to offer him earlier, why would he be interested if they came in late? Nobody wants to be a consolation prize, so I don't see him changing his mind. Iowa offered him in June, so we've been there for awhile.

Wegher still ended up with more carries than Robinson. He had over half his carries (8) by the time he scored with 6 mins left in the 3rd to make it 28-3, so it’s not like all of his carries were garbage time. Hampton got nine carries against Maine in the opener of ’08 and 10 the next week vs...

You are so full of ****. The defensive scheme works. It’s worked for Iowa in the past and it’s worked for teams in college and pro football all over the country. If the scheme was so bad, then why do so many teams use it? That’s all fine and good, but computers can’t watch the games, so...

Yeah, I don't think players spook that easily. Being a little concerned is a natural reaction. Choosing a school is like having buyer's remorse after a major purchase. It's going to happen no matter what choice you make. Once the dust settles, I bet he will remember the reasons why he chose...

It's a trend that players leave schools? I wouldn't consider it alarming unless we are one of the top schools in the country for player attrition. People like to say that these kids spend a lot of time on the internet reading these websites and that is why they might leave, but the comment...

Oh, I don't know.....maybe the fact that he was still getting paid to coach? It's called integrity. If, as you imply, he lacked motivation near the end, he doesn't sound like the type of guy you want to hire for anything.

So what you seem to be saying is that a decision that will have impact for a long time should be rushed to save one recruiting class that isn't even falling apart at the moment.

You had any respect for Penn State to begin with? They have always been entitled a-holes. If they talked to everybody they would still not be done. Where does Dozier think they can draw the line at consulting former players? Only All Americans? Only NFLers? It's funny that Short said they...

That’s very true. Being attached to the ACC is not a good thing for any bowl. They showed a stat today that the ACC is 2-13 in BCS bowls since their inception. They were by far the worst. Upgrades over A&M and Mizzou? You’re crazy. TCU is a good program because they have a good...

Clearly you don’t know what you are talking about. Most of the four and five star players that Iowa has gotten, they have retained. Here is a list of the four and five star players since 2002 (as far as Rivals archive goes back): 2002 Chris Felder (retired due to injuries) Edmond...

First off, I'd like to point out that EVERY scheme relies heavily on execution or they couldn't be successful. You make a very good point in the rest of your paragraph though. The thing I see as the biggest reason for underachievement the past few years when we have had mediocre records is the...

I disagree there as well. Whether you run the Houston/OK St offense (passing all the time) or the old Nebraska offense (running all the time), the idea was the same. They were saying we are going to do X, so try and stop us and yet people have been unable to do that to them. The biggest...

Or is it that you are seeing what you want to see from that quote? As has already been said before, he knew he wasn't going to get promoted and was probably hurt by it, so he moved on. Sorry, but he has to take responsibility for some of the failures on the defense. Only if he was getting the...

Dumbest post I have seen in awhile. Last I checked, out-executing your opponent was the key to winning games. Changing the scheme doesn't mean you no longer have to execute at a high level. I can guarantee you every team that has had success this year has out-executed their opponents.

Any word about Robinette?

I've been agreeing with a lot of your comments lately. What's up with that? I think DeAndre Johnson is a smaller Coker. He runs tough and while he can't take the pounding that Coker could, I think he will have a better game than Canzeri. I think combined they will have to put up 150 yards...

I have to agree with the last three posters. I kind of figured Tyler was about 16, but then he claims to have vividly remembered games vs Michigan and MSU from the mid 80s. That would make him older than that, and I would expect more respectful of people. I would also tend to think someone...

Foval made a good point on the front page about BYU. One could make the same argument about high standards of conduct at Notre Dame…..and they were on Darboh’s short list. If the article is out there as herby claims, the burden is on him to produce it…..not on us to look it up. To...
