    Epenesa- Combine

    5.04 is bad. Most high school skill players will be between 4.7-5.0. I would think the teams that are interested would test him again. Just doesn't seem right he would be off the mark that far.

    Dantonio

    I am not a fan of Dantonio by any means, but on the other hand I don't want to see his legacy tarnished by a scandal either.

    Dantonio

    He had a good run. Couple of bad seasons at the end. But looks like there are a lot of problems at Michigan State. We will see how many of the problems he gets caught up in.

    Playing sports at the major college level takes full commitment not just for a degree. Anything less and your cheating yourself and your institution. Good job not sticking around and wasting everyone's time. Best of luck to him.

    OT: Antonio Brown. Wow, just wow.

    That has to be my favorite baseball movie.

    OT: Antonio Brown. Wow, just wow.

    All we can do is shake our heads at these guys. These guys make the kind of money we dream of. And they are doing a job most of us would love to do. Yet it's like the Bull Durham movie; Meat; Million dollar talent, 10 cent brain.

    Off-Topic — Aaron Hernandez Netflix documentary

    I can match my childhood trauma's with just about anyone. I didn't end up in prison. Neither did any of my siblings. My father and most of my uncles were war vets. Not the little skirmishes we have now, WW2. Somewhere along to line these people make a decision to do these things. We all have had...

    K. Ferentz Talked Today About Late Recruiting Period, Transfer Portal

    Iowa needs more D linemen for the rotation. If one can come in and stand out that would even be better. But the rotation is where Iowa needs help right now.

    Off-Topic — Aaron Hernandez Netflix documentary

    I never buy the environment made them bad defense. You make your choices. And there has to be that little voice that tells you right and wrong. In the end he was just another punk that didn't grow up.

    Now we know who's on the team for the new season

    I hope it all works out. I feel a lot better now that I know we have Jackson another year. His size and experience are sorely needed. Linderbaum maybe the next early round pick after Jackson. He's been gushed over since he walked in the door. Before I started this post I was really concerned...

    Now we know who's on the team for the new season

    Exactly. He's not a bad back, he's more of a journeyman back.

    Now we know who's on the team for the new season

    Sargent is a good back, but he lacks top end speed. If Iowa's line was better he would have done better, but so would Goodson. So he would still be waiting to spell Goodson.

    Could Stanley be a short yardage specialist in NFL?

    yes but you look at guys like Russell Wilson who make it through the season. In the NFL QB's know those guys are fast, the QBs are older they have enough sense to get to the ground or out of bounds when they need too.

    Now we know who's on the team for the new season

    I agree. I think when Goodson gets a solid year under Doyle and a full year to prep for a position that's his, he can be a force. The trouble with Young and Sargent, is that while they are good backs they don't have the speed. They can get to the hole but they are a half step late. A lot of...

    Now we know who's on the team for the new season

    Compared to having two large tackles like Wirfs and Jackson had they both left? The guard play was questionable all year and the tackles were solid when those guys were in there but while there are some experienced players on the line. If both Wirfs and Jackson left there wouldn't have been...

    Could Stanley be a short yardage specialist in NFL?

    Look at Martinez, other running QBs in our conference. Martinez missed half the season. NFL guys have 5 or 6 days a week to prep for a game, in college they have a limit. The players aren't nearly as experienced and they don't slide when they should.

    Could Stanley be a short yardage specialist in NFL?

    I think the college game is tougher on a running QB than the NFL.

    Now we know who's on the team for the new season

    Looks like the offensive line is going have a boost by having Jackson for another year. So that helps. Losing Wirfs isn't good, but the cupboard would have been bare if Jackson left too. The defensive line takes a big hit losing AJ. There is no replacement for AJ .There's going to be a...

    Could Stanley be a short yardage specialist in NFL?

    Stanly had troubles this past year after losing to 1st round picks to the NFL. Add to that a offensive line that never really got settled until the bowl game. He has some things the NFL really likes. Size, throws and work ethic. If he gets with the right coach in the NFL he could be a very...
