    It's possible he suffered the injury in practice after the IL game.

    Connor McCaffery Talks About Possibly Playing in '17-18

    Maybe that will work but I'll give you the opposite side of this and that is a number of good teams with good athletes may not have to double our guys inside or at any position so that means our spot up 3 point shooters are not open. We have few players if any that can create a shot in the...

    Connor McCaffery Talks About Possibly Playing in '17-18

    He's going to go through some struggles count on it. That also does not mean he will not be effective down the road. It's just going to be different for him when we start playing power 5/6 programs that have strong, fast, quick and/ or athletic bigs. Learning how to score below the rim...

    Connor McCaffery Talks About Possibly Playing in '17-18

    You are seriously discounting the attention Jok drew from opposing teams. He was the number target on everyone's scouting report. That emphasis is going to shift probably to a player like JBO. Life could be twice as difficult to get the same looks and how will he handle be 'mugged' on a...

    Connor McCaffery Talks About Possibly Playing in '17-18

    By the looks of it the wingspan of Nunge >>> Garza's. I think Garza will struggle some this season as he adjusts. This level of competition is not PTL or European YMCA. It's bound to take some time and he's a below the rim player. That's hard when opponents are as big and quicker than you...

    Connor McCaffery Talks About Possibly Playing in '17-18

    There's a lot of Koolaid being consumed on Connor and this team. I think Connor is a solid player but you can already see he is going to have issues keeping guys in front of him defensively. The defensive effort in general was marginal at best and we probably all overrated the hyperbole word...

    The West....

    Let's just play who is on the schedule and quit complaining. If we get the three best in the East so be it. Got to beat whoever is on the schedule and we've had opportunities to do so.

    There will be bad days when nothing works but so far what we are seeing is refreshing and has room to improve yet. It's exactly what we were hoping for.

    Matt Campbell Hates Iowa

    But again by doing that does that really mean you are saying you are the second class program? That's what is interesting.

    Ferentz is 7-3 in his last 10 games against ISU.

    How many of those losses were last second FGs too. Keep in mind KF lost his first four too and take out I think 3 last second FG losses plus an OT loss and he'd have a pretty salty record going. I think KFs third loss in a row early in 2001 we picked off Seneca and then fumbled it back on the...

    Matt Campbell Hates Iowa

    We don't know that. We were only up 11 points .... that's not exactly an insurmountable lead. If we had gotten another unanswered TD or two then we could have seen more of their mettle to continue fighting. They have mounted comebacks recently under Rhoads in the second half being down in...

    Although not his intent Campbell's rhetoric is actually validating our program in this state. Good going CMC ... keep it up. You've been played!

    Campbell also has a staff of friends so it's only a matter of time before the better ones start to leave based on their own aspirations. Dealing with staff turnover can be tricky too and cohesion can break down.

    Please disect the Dee's 28 point collapse

    We just cannot create pressure with our front four so we are left with the choice of blitzing which is also a risk-reward scenario. We are not a great blitzing team normally. ISU has the receivers to spread us out and force our LBs to cover and tackle in space which has been a real issue for a...

    HN TV: Kirk Ferentz Kids Day Interview

    Well there was some acknowledgment of some good individual performances at kids day. He typically down plays any of that talk and will hardly acknowledge that a player has a good day at all. I just suspect he knows these next couple of campaigns is his chance to pass the torch to Brian. We...

    HN TV: Kirk Ferentz Kids Day Interview

    Is it just me or does KF seem a tad bit looser and not so caught up in keeping every last detail top secret? It's refreshing just to hear the thought process and reality at positions.

    Any observations from Kids Day?

    Easley has a hamstring issue at the moment.
