    UNI to play Nebraska in 2024

    Hey Okeefe, where were you when North Dakota State Bison rolled into town a few years ago? Look up the score of that game for a reference point.

    Iowa Basketball Hires Matt Gatens

    This is a HOME RUN hire. Great person with knowledge about Iowa high school environment and Hawkeye tradition. Gatens popped into my mind the instant Speraw announced his retirement. As a life long (many many decades) Hawkeye fan I couldn't be more thrilled with this hire. Outstandiing!!

    Hawks favored by 10 at Northwestern

    Are Hawks favored by 10 or is somebody betting we'll score 10? Both thoughts are a stretch.

    Brian Ferentz

    I'd lay money BF will NOT be the next Iowa head coach. Baggage from the racial issue will not go away. New president has no allegiance to either Ferentz. BF does not have track record of sufficient success to rise to the top of a pool of strong candidates and you can bet your life the Iowa...

    Nebraska over Rutgers by 21

    You are spot on, Ree. Nebby has punched the Hawks in the gut several times when Hawks were heavily favored. I recall the year Huskers came back from 20 point deficit to beat Woodbury & company. Both games this week are treacherous. Hawks need to stay focused or they could lose both games.

    Garza losing POY ?

    Ayo was an absolute non-factor after the hard foul near the end of the game. In retrospect, the Illini might have had a better chance for success had the coach substituted for Ayo immediately after the hard foul. He looked like he was in a daze to me. The foul was a bush league play by the...

    Deuce Hogan...

    Fry, unless you have some bona fide inside scoop I believe you're off base on this topic. Ferentz & company have been all in on Petras as respects 2020 and going into spring ball. I don't believe he's the anointed one if there is an obvious, superior alternative. Hawks had little chance to play...

    Bob Diaco out at Purdue

    I think Brohm is 3 & 1 against Ferentz.. Does that answer your question?

    Mark Few Talks Hawkeyes

    Nobody should buy in to Few's "woe is me, poor boy bullshit". He's got a bit of Hayden Fry in him. I hope the Hawks aren't being sucked in & set up for a whoopin. Few has a tremendous, veteran team with lots of weapons. That's the bottom line here.

    Supreme Court to take up case on paying college athletes

    This litigation will not end well for the NCAA. I predict they're either going to lose or strike an out of court compromise. I don't have a solution but the system needs reformation. The fact that a coach can be paid over $20 mill to leave (Auburn) while the indispensable part of the system...

    Saturday is the biggest day in the history of Iowa sports

    Hey, uihawk82, thanks for bring up that day in 1980. I remember it well. My son & I watched the celebration which took place in the old fieldhouse. That was a very significant day in Hawkeye history. This Saturday could be a banner day for Hawks but it doesn't rival the 1980 event or several...

    Iowa Football Ranked

    How 'bout we beat Nebraska before we start dreaming of playing Indiana in December. Lots of water to go under the bridge before we get to Championship Saturday. The Huskers will not be a pushover.

    Nebraska Week

    hawk82, your are 100% correct abut the snafu back in 18. A field goal at that time would have been as good as a touchdown. That play happened directly in front of me and it has to rank as one of BF & KF's all time bone head calls. Huskers were completely dominated up to that moment. Momentum...

    Kirk Ferentz - 163 Wins

    Hey WinOne, remember when Hayden took the Iowa job, he quipped something to the effect, "It's not the Big Ten, it is the Big Two and Little Eight". I can't remember exact stats, but I'm not certain anybody other than Michigan or OSU won the BIG title during the 70's. Those two teams were on a...

    Article...The End is near for Ferentz

    Another point to consider boys & girls: The U is just now starting a search for a new prez. It would be tough to hire an outstanding coach until the new administration is in place. It is reasonable to expect any outstanding coaching candidate to have concerns about who will be his boss and...

    Hawkeyes open as 9 point favorites vs MSU

    okeefe, you're spot on. MSU played a clean game against Wolverines & looked pretty good on defense. Lombardi played well & can move. Hawks will have to play much better against Spartans than they've played in 1st two games. I don't see Hawks winning this game unless there is a huge...
