    Howe: Closing Time - Final Thoughts on '18-19 Hawkeye Season

    Very nice write up. One bone of contention I have is I do not see any development in this program. Would suggest stagnation (along with football). I have followed Iowa sports since the late 50s and the excitement usually devolves into disappointment year after year in both sports. I pine for the...

    The Kinnick House news story

    The Kinnick House is at the south end of Lusk (a dead end). It was built by a family from Decorah so they can all get together for football Saturdays. I doubt there will be raucous parties with large crowds.

    CHA will it be rocking?

    The students at the Fieldhouse were never court side. We sat in the upper balcony including the pep band. We stomped on those old metal bleachers and screamed until you could not here the person next to you. Quit making excuses and start yelling your guts out.

    Big thanks to all involved in Righting the Ship (Change the Court)

    The old school Herky that was on the east wall in the old Fieldhouse was the original Carver center jump logo. I don't think Lute was a big fan of the Tigerhawk. If memory serves Mr. Davis started using the Tigerhawk and the old logo was history. For accuracy contact George Wine. Just a reminder...
