    Declaring

    Little surprised Taylor made the jump. RB's are plentiful. Granted he did good in college but it doesn't mean that he'll make big numbers in the pros. He had a big line to run through and there were games where he didn't do so well.

    The Big Ten West is Going to be Tough in 2020

    Iowa's first 7 games include Minnesota, Iowa State, Michigan State, Ohio State and Penn State. Iowa starts the year with one tune up game followed by two tough games. This is going to be tough with a new quarterback. The skill players should be better than 2019, but the offensive line isn't...

    Yes, look at the bowls the Cyclones have gone to, not a surprise they look at the camping bowl as a step up. IE; Shreveport, Boise etc

    That's good. I didn't know that about ISU

    2020 offense vs. 2019 offense

    I think the two Ferentz's balance out one another. Kirk knows more about football than anyone on the coaching staff. On the other hand he doesn't like taking too many chances. But since Brian has been here we have seen more willingness to try things from Kirk.

    2020 offense vs. 2019 offense

    With AJ next year the defensive line would be among the best in the country. Without him they will probably be just adequate. Though I expect Nixon to take a step up. He's had a year of playing time and over a year with Doyle. Chauncy Golston his numbers may drop with AJ gone. At this point...

    2020 offense vs. 2019 offense

    Don't count anyone in or out until after the 17th. I read that. Even with him back, there's still 2 starting guards and probably Wirfs gone. Iowa has Iowa State, Minnesota early on schedule. Not a lot of time for the line to gel. Throw in a new quarterback. Coaches going to be earning their...

    USC FIRES TWO COACHES AFTER LOSS TO IOWA

    Helton needs to clean house if he wants to survive next year. But even new coaches might not help as he has Alabama and Notre Dame in their first 3 games. USC could easily end up 1-2 after 3 games.

    2020 offense vs. 2019 offense

    The offensive line is the key. Iowa should be solid at center, however, the rest of the line may be new. Iowa has had one 100 yard running game in two years? That needs to change. The best friend for a new quarterback is a good running game. Get the running game going and the receiving corps...

    So if KF were to announce his retirement today...

    Financially its a down hill slide for these schools. Look at how much Nebraska paid Mike Riley. These schools need to run these decision through their business schools before they make them.

    Fun Exciting Great win but one question

    The guards weren't up to the task was one part of the problem. It was a problem Iowa just wasn't going to be able to address in the season. Hopefully it gets better next year. I think in the USC game Iowa did just enough running to keep the defense honest. In the second half Iowa was getting...

    You can hear he's clearly deflated and not happy with Clay Helton

    So if KF were to announce his retirement today...

    The skills for head coach are not universal for sure. We have been spoiled by having only two coaches for so long. I would hate to see Iowa become like USC or Nebraska, getting a new coach every 3 to 5 years.

    Soooo....Anti-Ferentz crowd

    yes we did. Now that you mention it! Though, I think the missed pass served it's purpose. It kept the defense guessing.

    So if KF were to announce his retirement today...

    That's going to be the concern is when Kirk leaves, how many of his staff do also? Phil Parker is going to be hard to replace. No matter who is the HMFIC.
