I forgot about Grant and hadn't heard about Heiar. Thx for the link. That could mean nine left then. Who do you think we have a shot at?

No, but I am not the one complaining that there are so many guys that could do as well or better either. I am just guessing that he is referring to guys that are head coaches now. That's silly enough. It's even sillier to suggest that even guys who have never been HCs could deliver 7 or 8 wins...

That's why I put the ? in there. Since when are we losing Heiar? I would imagine they are holding a scholarship open for the return of Coe. I think seven or eight would be accurate though. I would hope then for one more LB, another WR and maybe a RB or QB.

I'm thinking we have about five left? I'd like to see another lineman (Kozan seems the most likely for us to get), a LB (Lambert), another D lineman (Curry or Lohn), a QB (Sokol), and a RB (Garmon or Coleman). If things go the way they look like they are, it could be Lambert, Lohn, Chesson or...

Most years? Discounting his first two years when he was rebuilding the program, KF has six years of 7 wins or less and five years of 9 wins or more. How is that even CLOSE to most? No one is happy with 7-5 and I doubt KF is either. However, this kind of posting is representative of a portion...

You do realize that even Norm had to start somewhere, right? Maybe you think that it's only ok for a guy to get his first coordinator job at a school that sucks, so it won't matter if he fails, but the fact is that everybody starts somewhere.

I don't think he did too bad at all when he was the interim DC. Just because the scheme may remain the same doesn't mean the play calling will. I'd like to think there will be a little more nickel coverage against the spread and probably more blitzing than Norm ever did (that isn't to say...

Yeah, and it has nothing to do with the facts that 1-He was from PP's recruiting zone and he's a DB and PP is the secondary coach, and 2-He de-commited the same weekend that the coach of the school he was going to attend left to take the Illinois job.

Really? You might want to tell that to Wisconsin, MSU, USC, Stanford, VT, Penn State and a host of other schools that still run pro style offenses.....as well as the numerous schools that still run Cover 2.

So you have the stats to back this up, right? From three websites I just visited: Teamrankins.com 2011-Iowa (31), ISU (11) 2010-34,54 2009-17,74 2008-55,66 2007-85,49 2006-51,68 2005-9,15 2004-17,80 2003-21,55 GBEratings.com 2011-Iowa (61), ISU (26) 2010-32,10 2009-30,85 2008-80,79...

Oh, that's BS. How many times did he scramble away and complete passes? He's not that terrible at handling pressure. As far as the last year for both McCann and Chandler, you do know they were only full-time starters for one year, right? You make it sound like they started multiple years.

Outside of Chandler, you haven’t looked at their seasons in context have you? McCann still threw almost as many interceptions (11) as TDs (16). Chandler was never asked to do more than be a game manager and he was quite a good one, but having a great defense helps. Brad Banks was a...

I don't get this big desire to be fiery. Some guys are too emotional and I wonder if they can keep their cool when the game is on the line. Tressel and Carr were never that fiery and they seemed to do ok. You could go on and add Tom Landry, Tony Dungy, Don Shula to that list. Acting like an...

Oh please....he's miles better than McCann was. Right now JVB is in the middle between the two classes. He's better than the first three, but saying that he isn't as good as a player who was runner-up for the Heisman and two others than finished up among the best at their position is still...

It’s quite well-known how the interview process went. Don’t act like you had inside information. Bob was told that they had one more person to interview and were going to follow through with that. That’s called keeping your word in case you aren’t aware. Don’t think for a second...

Yes it is that way all over the country. As far as sizzle, goes, just look at how many players we send to the NFL. A lot of freshmen have player over the last three years and it hasn’t all been because of necessity. The staffs’ philosophy is that upperclassmen know the system better and...

Those are good points and I had said the same thing about film too. Rather than waste time with calls and e-mails (which the staff probably gets tons of) send a DVD of the kid's highlights. Besides there are only so many spots in this class and they have already signed two linemen and have a...

It's funny that you rag on us for how we score so low against PSU, MSU Nebraska, we also faced three of the top 10 scoring defenses in the country. How many did ISU face? Oklahoma was your first at #28. They were allowing 20 ppg and ISU managed 6. Kansas was allowing a whopping 43 ppg and...

You do know that link had nothing to do with how their defense has played, right? Your argument is that they have become world-beaters in the last month against some of the top offenses in the country. The last month has been games against TTU, Kansas, OSU and Oklahoma. So you're basing that...

Don't know how you arrived at that conclusion. Statistically they are the 6th best defense in the conference. The fact that they gave up over 500 yards of offense in each of their last two games says otherwise.
