    Pulling for Jake

    This probably is why stanzi had the better yards per pass. Not to mention more of a downfield passing system.

    Pulling for Jake

    This is wrong...rudock played in 13 games and started all of them. Stanzi played in 13 games and started 11 of them. rudcok didn't have the weapons stanzi did around him but still put up impressive numbers for a sophomore. Not sure why so many want cj when rudock has proven so much. If he...

    2 Deeps for UNI

    i have wondered this too. I heard he had a similar mean streak to scherff and Blythe. Thought he would be at rt or guard.

    Pulling for Jake

    Similar to stanzi though they were better because stanzi didn't throw the ball as much with the battle to start the yr. if stanzi threw as much as rudock had stanzi and rudock would have had very similar stats with stanzi coming out just on top.

    Who's the starting QB?

    Rudock had similar numbers to stanzi's soph year. If stanzi had played every game full time he would have had pretty much the same numbers as rudock did last yr. if rudock can grow similar to stanzi I don't see any reason to be down on him.

    Badgers thin at Running Back?

    As long as Gordon doesn't get hurt they aren't thin at running back.

    Any news on hawkeyes playing in the pre-season

    I believe stanzi leaving kc was more a new regime and I am not sure he fits the Reid system that well as he is more of a downfield passer and Reid likes more short passing.

    Jok - he gone

    1st time he made an improper turn and was pulled over and hit with owi. 2nd time he was driving a moped that was up to road standards and got caught driving with suspended license. an improper turn is dangerous because he wasn't in a turn lane and then he was found to be under the influence...

    Miller - Deace Podcast

    There is a difference between Miller and Manziel vs. Wilson. Wilson is a scrambler not a runner when he runs he is very cautious and smart with taking hits etc. Miller and Manziel are not similar players to Wilson. Both are more Vick and that can work in the pros but it also isn't a good way to...

    No fullback in starting lineup

    Unless the position is on the field more than a 2nd TE or 3rd WR it really isn't a starting spot. Our FB is on the field less than those 2 spots. I would say the starting lineup should have 2 TEs. But most teams have 3 WRs in the starting lineup so I get why they did it that way.

    Uthoff shines despite unusual circumstances

    Exactly what I saw. This kid can dominate and take over games in more ways than people know. He deferred to marble and white and others when he was the best all around player. Don't be surprised if many feel he is the best player on the team this yr.

    2014 Weakness - Offensive Line Depth

    Good rbs still matter but a good/great ol halos make an average rb look good. But a bad ol can make a good/great rb look average. Part of the problem in the past yrs has been quickness to the los. Weisman is not quick to los but Canzeri is. Without a big hole Weisman struggled. Canzeri is low...

    2014 Weakness - Offensive Line Depth

    I think Simmons and welsh end up being the backups at center and guard. But ward pops out to tackle if anything happens there and Simmons or welsh moves into the guard. if they are willing to play ward at guard I think he is one of the top 5 linemen. It will be interesting to see who the...

    2014 Weakness - Offensive Line Depth

    I am still thinking ward ends up in the starting lineup. Like what I saw and heard about his playing. He has an attitude, similar to scherff and Blythe. Since it looks like Donnal will be at rt, I think ward will end up at lg. and then will take over for scherff at lt next yr.

    ESPN Iowa - The Oakland A's of college recruiting

    The movie wasn't about the big guys on the team. It was about the following: 1) a baseball guy going against the common convention (though that story was changed as the gm before billy did things like billy did) 2) finding value guys that could help the stars (ie David justice for cheap and...

    ESPN Iowa - The Oakland A's of college recruiting

    They were successful because they had young talent (mulder, Hudson, zits, tejeda, etc) and because they found value in players others didn't. Perfect storm of what you need. Teams have learned that is how you do it. That is how the cards do it, the rays, the Red Sox.

    ESPN Iowa - The Oakland A's of college recruiting

    Teams and depth win games over 162...teams with top pitchers and hitters win series. But this yr the a's seem to have both. So at some point in the next few yrs they will lose some players and have to build again.

    They make the playoffs about every 3 yrs and have the best record in baseball right now.

    ESPN Iowa - The Oakland A's of college recruiting

    PEDs speculation with the A's isn't speculation anymore. They had the godfather of PEDs in Jose canseco. Not to mention McGwire, Giambi, tejeda, etc. but you can't deny what billy beane has done with looking for undervalued talent and winning using nickels versus other teams dimes.
