    The perfect addition for the Big Ten? TCU

    Horrible idea in my opinion. Yeah it opens up Texas but why go after a private university that cannot even sell out there ~40,000 seat stadium?? I mean they arent going to bring in my revenue to the Big 10. The Big 10 needs a big public university with a strong research and graduate level...

    OT: Fla reinstates DUI player for bowl

    1 game is a pretty good suspension for an OWI. I believe there are players on Iowa that served a game or 2 for OWI. I was shocked that the kid was suspended at all.

    Top Football Revenue Programs

    Big Ten = 10 major violations SEC = 22 major violations That is a pretty staggering statistic!

    Matt Hoch

    IMO we have a GREAT crop of defensive prospects coming in next year and maybe that got to the kid. Hoch would have been great in this class (in switch is true) but I dont think it will affect us that much. The kid didnt want to be a Hawkeye so we need to trim the fat so to say and go with what...

    Santreal Henderson

    I dont think Iowa is in the running for this guy. We as fans like to think we are in the running but this kid just doesnt want to play for Iowa. I think he visited Iowa as a gesture to John Alt and that is it. If developing into a great lineman and a top 5 pick was his goal he would come to Iowa...

    Meet the Hawkeyes

    Funny how that story takes shots at our offense but says nothing about the BAD GT defense that our offense will be playing against. I think our offense will have a great game in this one (and needs to because I am not sure we will stop GT from scoring a good chunk of points). I look for a...

    Clayborn & Spievey

    I dont think RIchardson wants a 6th season. I mean he has just been injured every year and I think it may be taking a toll on him. I read a good Spievey article this week and from the way it looks I think this kid might bolt for the NFL after this year because I think his mom is unemployed and I...

    I believe that Iowa is done with recruiting

    White had his scholarship taken off the table and the Dawson ship has sailed. I also think this class is pretty much full except if we get a few 4 star guys to switch their commitments!!!

    Kirk on St Louis ESPN station

    I think there are some media members that are starting to turn the page and are looking at the Hawkeyes as a very dangerous team. I mean we know how to win close games, we know how to play defense, our offense has stopped turning the ball over often so what is not to like about this team>...

    University Grass Lots for Saturday

    Its already been announced that ALL University grass lots will be CLOSED for the game. There is enough parking around to not worry too much but it hurts the tailgating that is for sure......

    Let's Raise The Roof on Saturday....

    Totally agree with this! I hope the fans turn out and are VERY LOUD this weekend. This team deserves a great showing from the fans from here on out. I would hope the students are smart enough to realize that they have a chance to be a part of something very special with this team. Lets hope the...

    ESPN and Power Conferences

    It is stupid that a team like Boise State's season is made on ONE FRICKEN GAME!! The first game of the year for that argument. I mean really. A team beats a top 20 team the first game of the year and now they are still inside the top 10 after almost losing to a pretty average at best Tulsa...

    Redshirt ?

    The only way the staff takes the redshirt off is if they can contribute to the team. If the redshirt comes off, we need them to contribute. If that is on special teams or in certain spots so be it but I have faith in this staff that if they need a player to make plays they will put ANYONE in a...

    Iowa will open the offense up on Saturday

    Honestly, we cannot open the offense up because we dont really have an offense. I mean really, if you expect us to score a HUGE amount of points this weekend it just isnt going to happen. I really hope we score quite a few points and win big but we just arent made to put up bunches of points and...

    Anyone else notice DJK shaking his head

    The kids a gamer and he wanted that final ball.....DJK and McNutt have the opportunity to be very special receivers at Iowa. I really think DJK is the biggest gamer on our team. The kid gets up for every game and seems to caught a lot of balls especially in the BIG GAMES!!!

    Anyone else in tears

    I agree with this. I was fine until they interviewed Kirk after the game and he broke down. This game was emotionally draining and I was shaking for about an hour after the game.... So proud to be a Hawkeye today......

    Ferentz Contract Bonus $$

    Kirk is worth every cent he gets and then some! The guys DONATES a lot of money back into the University of Iowa. I remember a few years ago when I was an undergrad at Iowa, he and his wife donated a huge amount into the College of Liberal Arts. I was taken back that this coach is donated all of...

    Iowa Will Win Big this Weekend

    I have a bad feeling about this week. Iowa could be walking into the perfect storm there in East Lansing. MSU is playing pretty well lately (against inferior opponents) and it is a night game (rare in EL) and they seem to have our number recently there. I also have a feeling that we are going to...

    Who is Iowa's biggest Big Ten rival

    I think it is a 1a 1b type situation with Minnesota and Wisconsin. I personally think Minnesota is the biggest rival but Wisky is a close close second. I think there is genuine dislike between these teams and it shows on the field. They are usually hard fought and close games. HOpefully we can...

    David Barrent

    I really dont mind this jackhole going to MSU. I want guys that WANT to be Hawkeyes. In the end I really think he will be kicking himself for not coming to Iowa. I think Iowa develops O Lineman WAY better than MSU..... Hopefully Iowa will come out with a chip (due to what happened last year at...
