My guess is 4th round or later. He has potential but after 3 years of starting NFL scouts will be wary of taking to much of a chance on him. On the plus side he can make most of the throws they want in the NFL. He has good size. He's the size that a lot of coaches like, the problem is whether...

Trust Iowa's defense. USC hasn't faced a defense like Iowa's. However, as others said, USC will throw the ball around. They will test our secondary. It will also test Iowa's pass rush. Hopefully, the 15 practices will help Iowa's offense. Brandon Smith should be back. Need a running game and...

Sad lot of the favorite sports announcers are getting so old. Like boxers some stay in the game too long.

This Nebby off season is going to be interesting to watch. They ended the year with a self made quarterback controversy. Essentially they tested 3 QB's in their last game. Martinez didn't look happy at all. He had enough class not to air any dirty laundry, but I'll bet there is a lot going on...

Iowa does take development seriously. On both sides of the ball. If Iowa didn't develop so well they wouldn't be putting so many players into the NFL. The defensive tackles were not the best this year. They were adequate. Just not stellar

I agree with the C grade. However; Quarterback's best friend is a good running game. Iowa had no running game to speak of this year. Losing 2 tight ends to the NFL was tough to replace. The WR production was affected by the lack of a running game and to a lesser extent Nate Stanley's...

I would have to think Sargent and Toren Young both know that they will never make it to the NFL. So it's just the college experience for them. So to jump in the transfer portal to start over at another school for one year doesn't seem like a good move. It's not like they have 2 or 3 years left.

When I lived in Iowa City I would see Sherff on occasion. Wirfs is about that size. Surprisingly huge when you see those guys up close.

Good article. The big concern is the offensive line. Again! Losing most of the starting line from this year. Defensive end production could be down. I can see some of the defensive backs staying. But AJ, that's just too much money. He would benefit from another year but an injury and it all...

Those are valid points. The head coach is far more administrative than people think. So much of the actual coaching is done by the assistants. A head coach has to be a organizer, communicator and a positive face of the organization. It's not a job for every coach. One of the concerns I have...

Yes but look at the overall picture. Every year the defense is the strength of Iowa. This year Iowa has given up a very low point total against some of the best teams in the country. And they have done this with an unheralded interior line. Iowa's defensive ends are solid and not to say the...

I think the Nebraska situation is a lesson for all that would like to get rid of Kirk. Pelleni for all his faults had the last 9 win season at Nebraska. Now the Huskers are on their second coach and it's looking like another dumpster fire hire. The future is uncertain for Nebraska. They...

I hope he stays at Iowa. Don't know how many out there can do what he does with the players Iowa has.

I got a memory for Iowa State. Iowa going into their stadium and leaving with the win. Better luck next year. Cough, cough, 5 in a row.

Wow! Can't believe I didn't think of this. Phil Parker as the next head coach!? Steve Deace floated this on their Nebraska/ Iowa game podcast. I think this is a great choice. But like Steve said it probably won't happen. You don't have to be a statistician to understand what kind of job...

My initial comments were about what they are today. Not what they want to be. At this point they aren't where Iowa is. If Frost is good enough and lasts long enough he may get them there. But it will take someone a few years to get a program going. Nebby has a big name, far bigger than they...
