    I believe this year's team will be better than last year's team

    I am cautiously optimistic that this team can make the Dance with maybe the 7th slot in the Big Ten. If they are better than last years team, I will be happy, but I just do not see it. As Fran said yesterday, Marble was the bail-out guy who could post up, play pg, shoot it, and drive it. We...

    Hawkeye freshman basketball player might take a redshirt

    Rehab it for a couple of months and get him in there for the league season. We need all hands on deck to make the dance this year. If he helps us win one Big Ten game, play him. Look at our history with redshirts.....Meyer, Archie, Angle.....unless it is a big guy who needs time to grow into...

    I know what you are saying here, but I would say that our ranking is a reflection of our good classes in 2011 and 2012, with those recruits now juniors and seniors....we should get by until that junior class is done...this season and next, but what then? Unless we pick it up, then we will have...

    B1G media days.

    They need to re-think this.....it was not a portrait of excitement...no doubt. I think the media and coaches all went to Rush St. last nite and were sleepy and hung over...

    For the 2013, 2014 and 2015 classes, right now on 247 Team ratings, Iowa was 12th or 11th in the Big Ten in all three years. If things do not change, we could have some talent disparity in the Big Ten going against the Hawkeyes. You simply cannot be at the bottom of recruiting in your league...

    2015 NFL Draft: Iowa DT Carl Davis is the Real Deal

    Clearly, Homer can analyze NFL talent better than the NFL scouts.....if it is an Iowa player....he just automatically denigrates any Iowa players talent, and downgrades them 4-5 rounds lower than the NFL GMs.....he is the expert, on Iowa players...they are never any good.

    Tevaun Smith.

    Powell and Tevaun give us a chance downfield.....both should be featured more.

    Canzeri coming out for a "breather"-come on

    Just get thru this weekend with our RBs still healthy, and with another week off maybe Jordan can get healthier. I agree that having our rbs healthy in November, without losing any Big Ten games is a good position for Iowa. Weisman can be our cruncher in short yardage and around the goal...

    Big Ten West Games-Conflicted on Nebby at jNW

    Tough call for me. I dislike NW more than Nebby...but I live just south of Evanston and hear too much about Fat Pat Fitz, the greatest coaching mind in college fb....just ask him. So, I will probably root for Nebby to put NW out of their misery. Seimein is dinged up now, and Nebby might take...

    Big Ten Network inconsistency

    On BTN Live, I find Ray Lucas of RU to be only average in his input. Last nite he said that Iowa settled on Jake and did not do the alternative QB scenario.....did he realize that CJ played in both halves? He says that jake gives Iowa the best chance to win....that is not determined at this...

    TV options, times remain open for Iowa-Nebraska football game

    Give me a 2:30 kickoff as a 10-1 Iowa squares off vs a 10-1 Nebby for the Big Ten West title.

    Dukie V ranks IOWA HAWKEYE #24 in preseason poll

    Wow...our first team all league performer brought the whole team down? The guy in an NBA uni right now? Finally this team is unleashed from Dev and will take off? Dream on. We might have a good year, but it will not be because the 4th leading scorer in school history is gone.

    Top 25 Countdown: No. 21 Iowa Hawkeyes

    This guy seems to really know the Hawkeyes.....he diagnosed all our issues quite accurately. As he said, we have nobody that needs to be game-planned for on the offensive end....unless maybe Peter steps up. I am surprised he ranked us that high, after his precise analysis of all our issues...

    I think IU is hoping that Shake Milton commits to the Hoosiers, and that might leave no schollys left....but this is Crean, so hard to tell. Milton visited IU last weekend.

    Feels like opening day

    Maybe the Hawkeye offense will turn the page and start anew? Hoping so.

    Only two big B1G Ten games this weekend

    Ok, I guess I get your point....you dislike divisions, which came into the league like 4 years ago. I am still interested in the East matchups because I am a Big Ten football fan, and I like following the teams that we will play in the years to come...but, hey, if you have no interest...

    Woodbury's Confidence Grows

    Iowa has the 4th toughest non-conference slate in the Big Ten....you are stuck in 2012, it seems.
