Amazing how some fans blame last year on our 1st team all league NBA performer, isn't it? And how without him, this team will finally be free to reach their true potential? Wow. We now can see why Devyn ended up taking all those end of shot clock and game shots....no one else was willing or...

Yes, Woody and Mike were top 100. Jok was not. Honestly, I think Woody is worthy of his ranking, but 7'1'' guys take longer. Mike was a bit overrated, it appears. Our best players are usually top 100 guys...Gatens, Bru, Horner, Haluska, etc. Devyn is about the only all league guy from...

Agree that the wind is the key....if it is below 10mph, Jake can throw all 4 qtrs. and Iowa has a punchers chance. Field turf has eliminated any edge that rain would ever give Iowa.....since it was installed, Iowa struggles at Kinnick. Big mistake.

Figured they would do that next week, for Senior Day, but I guess with the odd holiday date, does not make sense. C'mon seniors....Dinardo just picked Iowa to be emotionally charged over a distracted Badgers squad. Says Wisky is better on the field, but emotions give Iowa a chance.

I can see personality-wise how a coach can end up with a team emulating him....but shooting? Shooting is shooting, and each player is unique.

The more I see of other big ten teams, the less confident I become that the Hawks can achieve a 9-9 record needed to get on the bubble. We are going to lose to UNC ...and probably ISU...and maybe UNI. That leaves the Hawks with a tiny margin of error in the Big Ten season. Our first 9 games in...

Aaron White is a solid leader on the court....I get it, he is not a floor general, but Mike Gesell has plenty of experience. Gatens was a good leader, but not a pg. But, the best floor generals pgs are often highly rated...like Ulis, or Ennis for Cuse last year, or Felix/Taylor last nite...

Cuse fans are just as demoralized as Iowa fans today. Cuse is very vulnerable on offense. They struggle to shoot the ball also. If Christmas gets in foul trouble like last nite vs Cal, Iowa can roll them....just need Woody, Whitey and Jarrod to pump fake the dude who wants to block...

Should be an interesting game....Texas has 5 guys in their rotation that exceed 240lbs...ranging from 6'8'' to 6'11''.....more than any Big Ten team, I suspect. If Iowa does pull this win out, and then win again on Friday, they have earned a top 20 ranking.

I should have said 3% black, because that was the percentage of blacks in Iowa the last time I looked. I agree that it is not the fanbase that makes a difference as much as the roster, and student population.

Patriots used an extra o-lineman plus a TE to attack the Colts last Sunday....Colts also play the 3-4 with blitzes...worked well as an unknown rb ran for 204 yards vs Colts.

I was watching a little of BTN in 60 , Neb vs Wis. and coming out in the second half, Huskers, down 24-17, got the ball first and they had Armstrong throw 3 bombs in a row, none even close. Seems like Huskers basically had one pass play...go deep. Iowa needs to mix it up more...deep crossing...

Gordon said that Iowa fans knew all about him and his history ...all the details, and made him aware of it Get in his ear, Iowa fans, he fumbled twice last week....remind him. Honestly Gordon seems like a nice kid.....nothing too viscious, please.

I agree that getting some American black players from urban areas is good to see...only Clemmons had that background until this year, when Trey joined in.....simply because I think this will help create more of a comfort zone for recruits in the future. Lets face it, Iowa is a school in a 97%...

I think 247 is roughly correct. Every Big Ten team ahead of Iowa has at least one top150 recruit....Iowa has none. BB recruiting is about quality not so much quantity. Watching these frosh that were in the top 150, that Iowa pursued, like Nairns, Clark, Cohen, Ulis, LaChance etc...they look...

Ulis is the only true pg on UK. He will be a 4 year player, as Cal already loves him as his QB...he said it after the game last nite. Briscoe will play, but so will Ulis....every game, every year. Ulis would have pushed Iowa over the hump, after we lose our upperclassmen...and bring other...

Maryland did not have Diggs vs MSU....he killed Iowa. It happens....timing is everything in life. Just like when Mel Gordon was dinged vs LSU and only had a handful of carries in the second half as LSU rallied....imagine if Gordon was in full form like now?

I thought KF's response was fine. He basically let everyone know that DW had once again, jumped the gun by tweeting he was back, before even talking to KF....not cool. KF simply stated the truth...which does bother some folks who want PC answers. KF did not want to distract from the game at...

Yes, Iowa is so much better with no NBA prospects this year....those talented NBA types totally screw us up....just look at the Lick years...we had no one,and we flourished.

Odds of winning this weekend: Iowa vs Cal.....60 Iowa vs Wisky.. 35% Iowa vs Texas....20%.
