Wish he would have picked Iowa, but I can understand his decision. If you really compare the two programs, Iowa State looks better to recruits (at least ones that don't have a family connection to the Hawks). ISU has had more success on the court, winning Big 12 tournaments, while Iowa usually...

Sorry if already asked in another post, but didn't see it. Why didn't Iowa go for an onside kick after cutting the lead to 5? I mean the only way they win is to get the ball back, so with 2+ minutes left you at least try to get an onside, right? Worst case if the onside isn't recovered, Penn...

I didn't say Theo will settle for .500, I said ownership might. If they limit the payroll then Theo & gang will be limited to what they can change. I like your optimism, but after the collapse at the end of 2018 and now this year, I just don't want to go into 2020 with this same team and cross...

They should focus on the "collapsing" injury. Notre Dame had one the other night where the defender was walking back to their side of the line of scrimmage, bumped into the QB, then dropped like he got hit by a car. You get hurt or wind knocked out of you during a tackle and stay down, then...

The way this year ended was highly disappointing, but even if they made the playoffs I don't see them getting past Atlanta or LA. Maybe this will be a wake up call for the front office. I think they still have 3-4 years left in this window, but they need to make major changes this off season...

The easiest thing the BIG can do would be to pair the 4 western-most teams (Nebraska, Minny, Iowa & Wisco) with the 3 eastern-most teams (PSU, Rutgers, Maryland). The teams from Illinois, Indiana, Michigan & Ohio are the other division. All natural rivalries remain intact. Iowa's division...

Hope Jarrod makes it, but at some point does his age start to hurt him? Assume he's already 25 or 26, so if a NBA team is looking for someone at the end of the bench, wouldn't they prefer someone 4-5 years younger to hopefully develop?

Tear down the Old Capital Mall and put the new arena right across the street from the ped mall.

Assuming everyone returns, give Nunge all of Baer's minutes. If Touissant is ready to be a Big Ten PG, then he takes Dailey's 12 minutes. Dailey & CJ then either take some of Connor's or only play situationally depending on foul trouble or if someone is having an off night. With Cook, Garza...

Maybe McCabe is sleeping with all of their girlfriends ??

Losing San Diego sucks, but an annual game in Nashville and Las Vegas every other year is awesome. That Las Vegas game will love getting BIG fanbases to travel out there instead of the current Mountain West teams.

With the money involved now, I'm all for players getting compensated. But I'd hope it was a more formalized, structured arrangement, and not agents or boosters just giving kids bags of cash to attend their alma mater. I wish basketball, football and baseball would adopt a system where a high...

I don't think Barta has any plans to fire Fran after this year, unless something really blows up (Fran going Bobby Knight and throwing a chair or going on a public bender like Eustachy), but I think the actions of the players over the next couple of months will impact Fran's hotseat for next...

I realize these decisions are based upon money, but I'm surprised BTN doesn't try to also make money syndicating the games. For example, Iowa's non conference games against Alabama State, Grambling State, etc. are not going to be shown on BTN. So why not offer those games up to local TV...

At this rate, the lines for the ice cream stands in Carver are going to be pretty short this winter.

Probably puts CJ is the backup role again for the rest of the year. But doesn't mean his career is SF is over. It's not like previous Patriot QBs (Hoyer, Mallett, Cassell, etc.) have succeeded after they leave New England. So he could be #1 again later this year or with a year to study, may...

Agree. I wonder if any other coach has lost as many times against ISU than Kirk? I assume no, since if your team is bad enough to lose to ISU, your school probably doesn't keep that coach around very long.

For football conference geography isn't that big of a deal because you fly to away games anyway, and you're only going to have 4-5 away games over a 3 month stretch. It is the other sports (basketball, baseball, volleyball, softball, etc.) that get killed with expanded conference geographies...

I like the idea of letting red shirts play in the bowl game. Except for the playoff games, those are just exhibitions anyway. And if more draft eligible players are going to start sitting those games out, then why not let the red shirts get a little experience heading into their 'freshman'...

If Barta steps down, Iowa should give a blank check to Barry Alvarez to be the next AD, simply to watch the Wisco fan base lose their minds.
