Martinez (or T-Magic as they call him in Omaha) shouldn't make it through the year unscathed, but don't count your chickens before they hatch. He took a ton of big hits last year and popped right back up. The kid is tough. I think his mental make up is goig to be just as big of a crutch but from...

GOD DAMNIT!

Not gonna comment on if the whole promo is lame or not but I think its obvious who should be the first Iowan honored - Salvatore Giunta, recent Medal of Honor recipient from Hiawatha, IA. If the spirit of competition is incorporated into the heroes each year our Medal of Honor winner is gonna...

His Hawkeye days are long over Cyncy, if you cant see that you're pretty dense. Morningside is basically his last option to play ball (or attend college IMO). Pretty sad, but I couldn't really care less either.

I love the optimism, and I can understand it, but I'm not sold on it just yet. Yes, I probably am one of those Hawkeye fans that needs to get over the 'we're Iowa so expect a letdown' mentality, but last year did nothing to make that go away. There are a lot of question marks and a lot of...

Wow, sweet discussions you let run rampant on here Jon. Sure makes the Hawkeye fanbase appear sophisticated

FARMAGEDDON And don't give me crap about that name already being taken. Kansas and some opponent lay claim to it, but they've neglected a good name for far too long. It's time for Iowa and Nebby to give Farmageddon the game it deserves! FARMAGEDDON! Oh and Husker fan - you use the CWS as...

I believe he meant downhill as in not uphill, i.e. things start getting easier. Hopefully Coker and rest of the RB stable we have now can reverse this trend of attrition. As far as Wegher goes... well, I feel bad for him. And if I'm feeling bad for a guy that scored the game clinching touchdown...

I thought ESPN and especially Craig James looked like complete douches in this mess. I wanted to see much more coverage on their BS but when you are THE flagship sports reporting outlet you get to dictate stories and perception for the most part. It really makes me dislike the James family now...

5. TBD - I don't have a team other than the four below I would put on a list. I can see maybe 2003, 2001 for some people but I'll wait for another great year to add to the list (let's go Vandenburg!) 4. 2008 - It was hard pushing these guys to #4 as I think they were one of if not the best team...

No need to be a jerk Boss. And as for your questions - not much better. 'Obviously felt?' You don't know that, you don't want to imbed your own assumptions into your questions, this applies to your second question as well - does a player have to be satisfied in order to leave? Isn't money alone...

Disappointed? Let down? Those statements boggle my mind. I was pumped when I saw we got a highly rated kicking specialist. The impact of players like Kaeding and Donahue is huge when you play Iowa's brand of football. Missed field goals and bad field position from special teams play can has and...

F these people, its literally a couple of days a year and you knew what you were getting into. End of story. Although four small changes already mentioned could help quite a bit - vendors to assist in area garbage pickup after games, more portapotties, more garbage containers (that get...

A chemistry teacher with no sense of humor?!?!

I hope the best for JVB but I'm taking the wait and see approach. I agree that Iowa fans are way to quick to write off Stanzi, he was a helluva QB and those that always complain about the mistakes he did have a farmer mentality IMO (always complaining about something - not enough rain, too much...

What I have heard out of SC is Vanderloo isn't capable of coaching up talents like Woodbury and that's why he hasn't improved his skills much at East and why East didn't do better last year wiht their two bigs. Must just be SC gossip (the place is kinda shady) if the guy is being hired at a D1...

USC came extremely close to getting a TV ban with their recent brush with the NCAA. I think OSU gets hit worse, so I would not be suprised to see a TV ban. I think it's necessary, players, coaches, administrators, boosters and fans all need to realize that this crap is unacceptable.

Before even considering this (my first reaction is simply NO) I would want to see some stats showing all injuries in college football last year and on when they occured. Breaking it down to serious and nonserious injuries would be helpful as well. That way you could really evaluate whether or...
