    Olaseni to Redshirt next year?

    I am really happy with the progress this team has made and have enjoyed this season a great deal but I don't think Gabe or Marble will ever play in the NBA. Woodbury will need to develop to do so but it could happen. I hope in the near future we start recruiting players of that caliber but to...

    Hawks Get Verbal from Pierschbacher!

    I was at that game last night as well. I have never seen Ross P play FB but I saw him in the stands and that kid is huge. I watched Boettger play bb and I was not overwhlemed with his athleticism. Was that a normal game for him?

    Iowa's best quarterback the last 2 years

    I had the same observation. Not sure about Montana but I think with Rick Stanzi at QB we would have won 7-8 games and played in a bowl. Central Michigan and Indiana for sure. Possibly ISU, Purdue, Northwestern and even Nebraska.

    Serious Question about Johnny Manziel

    Not trolling and I do think KF wanted to win worse than any of us. I also am not amongst the group that wants him fired. I do think he is a too stubborn on personnel decisions and rewards loyalty over athleticism. I thought the Manziel question was a legitimate way to explore that topic.

    Serious Question about Johnny Manziel

    If Johnny Manziel had signed a LOI with the University of Iowa in February of 2011 would he have been Iowa's starting QB last season? I am fairly confident he would not have started the first half of the season due to KF's loyalty to JVB and his aversion to risk. I am torn as to what might...

    2013 Hawkeye Predictions: Who Will be Iowa QB?

    Great article Jon. I really appreciate the inside persepctive on a key question for our beloved FB program. I also appreciate the self depreciating humor at the end of the article. No matter how bad Rudock looked in practice I would have liked to see him get some snaps in 2012. JVB was so...

    Iowa vs. UI game thread

    This is entertaining. We are not ready to compete for a B1G title but we are competitive and moving in the right direction.

    Iowa vs. UI game thread

    I like that Woodbury is not backing down. I would like it better if he were making more shots but that will come with time.

    Iowa Football Awards Announced

    Even though McCall got a few carries last yeat I think he would be a worthy recipient of the Corey Robertson award. If not McCall surely Rodney Coe would bring something to the table.

    who is your favorite Iowa Basketball Player of All Time??

    I never saw Murray Weir & Sam Williams and I barely remember Freddy Brown. There is no player that followed Ronnie Lester that is even close as an individual or as a leader of a team. We have not won a Big Ten title or been to the Final Four since Ronnie Lester left.

    Don't look now, another Wegher

    I think Iowa would make sense for him since he already has family(nieces and nephews) in the Iowa City area.

    that didn't last long before wolves would start howling.

    If we want to be 'fair' let's point out that he inherited a roster largely devoid of athleticism and that was not capable of competing at this level even if John Wooden rose from the grave and took the job. It is hard to have a good defensive team with vastly inferior athletes. Today we have a...

    ESPN blog article on Davis retention

    Did anyone really expect anything different? For better or worse(and there is some of both) this is who he is and it is not going to change. An old school coach who the leadership of the University has deemed deserving of very high levels of compensation, job security and autonomy on both a...

    Help Support HawkeyeNation

    A very reasonable ask and I am happy to contribute. I look forward to a recruiting database if you are able to make that work. I would agree with the comments above about 'donations'. I personally don't see this as a not-for-profit endeavor(as defined by the Internal Revenue Code) and I would...

    I hope your bookie was unavailable today. CBS projects the following 3 SEC/B1G match-up Michigan vs. Georgia NW vs. South Carolina Minny vs Mississippi St. Let me know which one you would like to bet on.

    Something Positive

    Anybody else enjoying watching Chizek getting absolutely pounded in his rivalry game? I figured Chizek would get fired but expected it to be the recruiting violations. Getting fired for on field performance 2 years after winning national title is harsh but glad to see him go down.

    Iowa will not be young on offense

    I know we will be better at QB next year even though I have never seen any of our back-ups take a snap. Why do I know that? Becasue we absolutely can't be worse at that position than we were this year.

    Michigan vs. Ohio State

    Is Greg Davis calling plays for Michigan in the 2nd half? Watching that smug a**hole Urban Meyer finish 11-0 in his first year would make a painful season more painful.
