While this is technically true, Shonn Greene is as good of a success story as you can hope for in regard to college football players. Once he started rolling and it became clear that he was going to be able to get a crack at the NFL, his Junior year may as well have been his Senior year and I...

So the fact that Alabama offered him cash earlier in the process sits better with you? I don't want to be one of those, everybody cheats but Iowa guys, but at this point it's kind of like steroids in my mind. You almost have to convince me that you're not guilty before I'll believe it.

Seems strange to start a thread asking for someone to make a case for something and as soon as someone takes the bait immediately dismiss their argument. Also, you don't get to have it both ways. Either Kinnick's military service counts and Butkus's NFL accomplishments count or neither count...

Mom wants stability in coaching staff huh. Michigan huh.

It's UNC.

Didn't he transfer after Ferentz refused to guarantee his father a starting spot? I'm not sure that's the type of kid/parent we want but the coaches certainly know better than me.

Random recruiting thought. It seems like we're venturing more and more into the area of continuing to recruit kids even after they have committed elsewhere. I seem to recall hearing a while back that Ferentz hates the idea of talking to a kid after he has given his commitment to another...

Plaigarism - not cool. Sharing information that you know, regardless of where you got it from and whether or not you had to pay, should be fine. So don't take their article and copy and paste it but cliff notes is fine.

Speculation is that Brands isn't real happy about the way the tournament is run. Although, Dan Gable has gone on the record asking people to show up and support the tournament even though the Hawks aren't wrestling in it. Who knows? Not me.

Wow, OSU loses a lot. I'm sure they have a lot of talent waiting in the wings but that's a lot of key losses. If their Junior commitments come true that would be an entire OL, 1/2 DL, 2/3 LB, both CB, 1 S, 2 WR (including Cris Carter's kid), a 3 year starter at QB. That doesn't even factor in...

Maybe this will get answered at some point. We're all well aware that Fran brings with him an uptempo style. Is his plan to extend this to the defensive side of the ball as well? It seems like we currently employ a full-court press about as often as any other non-pressing team in college...

I thought I remembered hearing that the fact we were willing to let Rogers compete at RB was a big reason why we landed him. I could be wrong though. Also, I saw elsewhere that Ray Hamilton has looked very good playing FB. He is a TE recruit and could probably be persuaded to make the switch...

Imagine this conversation. "Honey, what do you think about going to a bowl game this winter?" "Well, how much would it cost?" "I'm thinking around $2,000 once we figure in everything." "What?! Where is it?" "Indianapolis. I hear it's really nice there. You know it's the capital of Indiana."

Sounds like KOK can be thanked in large part for the emerging pipleine into DeMatha.

If Simmons and Jackson are interested in playing together it would seem that we have a huge advantage.

If anyone has tickets or knows someone with tickets please let me know as I'm looking to go to the meet with friends. However many you can get us would be appreciated. Thanks!

There is a large contingent that has never understood the philosophies of this football team and therefore assumes that those philosophies are ineffective. They hold their tongues in the good times...and relish in calling for firings and saying "See I told you so" during the bad times.

Re: The MN game...if by underneath stuff you mean 200+ yds rushing...that is correct.

Goodness Child. No one...and I mean no one in Hawkeye Nation was anything but elated following the Orange Bowl about Norm Parker and his defense and no one...and I mean no one...wanted anything but for a return of Norm. So the guy has a health issue that kept him away from this team for a...
