    ESPN article on Wirfs

    Good article. Not sure he'll ever be "mean", I recall one of the Hawkeye football videos where Brian was getting after him for being too nice, but if he can plant the guy on the other side of the line all day long, it doesn't really matter. In fact, it can be more emasculating to get the...

    Adrian Clayborn in now a Cleveland Brown

    He was as dominant as anyone his junior year. Didn't seem like as much his senior year, but that's just my memory on it.

    Iowa Football Position Preview: Tight End Group Should be More Involved in '20

    Agree. I'd be willing to sit in the stands and allow one of those large tanker planes do a flyover before the game and douse us all in disinfectant. Hand out masks and rubber gloves as you enter the stadium, or whatever else is necessary. I will be one surly MF'er by the fall if there is...

    Iowa Football Position Preview: Tight End Group Should be More Involved in '20

    The offense should be a lot more productive this season. Assuming we have a this season.

    Herby says the upcoming season is in big time doubt

    Operative word - speculation. No one really knows. 5 months is a lot of time. We could well see the summer having an impact on the spread, new protocols, new tests, new treatments, and new methods for tracking the virus by then, which could render it no more dangerous than going to a...

    Iowa Football Position Preview: Hawkeye Receiving Corps Might Be Ferentz's Best

    I would only disagree to the extent that it is Ferentz's best group of WR, not might be. The raw stats will sort themselves out, but this group is extremely solid across the board, so defenses won't be able to cheat. Now, it will be up to Petras, or whoever, to get them the ball. Iowa is...

    From his Wikipedia page: Sayers was recruited by several major Midwestern colleges before deciding to play college football at the University of Kansas. While being interviewed during a broadcast of a Chicago Cubs game on September 8, 2010, Sayers said he had originally intended to go to the...

    Iowa Football Well Positioned for Nebraska Athlete Keagan Johnson

    Yes, Iowa doesn't get many, just the good ones (and the smart ones). In the past dozen years, Nebraskans who have avoided the downward spiral of the Huskers include Noah Fant, Drew Ott, Cole Fisher, Nathan Bazata and Shaun Prater. Not too shabby.
