Herman has a pretty expensive buyout at UH. 2.25M. Probably chump change for a p5. The truth is UH hasnt really played anyone very good. Vandy, Memphis,Cincy,Navy are better teams than what they have played so far.

Ive met and talked to him a few times. His biggest job is fundraising. At the gathering before the Iowa BB games in NYC last year he stopped at our table for about 10 minutes(it helped there was one of Forest Evashevski's players sitting there). The guy can definitely work a room.

Ive been to Peach Sun 2 Alamos 2003 Orange Bowl 2004 Outback Bowl Ive always made my own plans. For the Orange some guy who lives in SW Houston had 8 tickets on the 50. He couldnt go and sold the tickets to Houston Iowa Club members at face. Was awesome(unfortunately we lost). He...

Drew had verbaled to Texas A+M. Then Slocumb got fired and Franchione(run oriented offense) was hired. Drew realized he would sit behind Reggie McNeal. Dick played for Northern thereby leading to connection. What impressed Drew a lot about Iowa when he was in HS was when Hawk fans tore down the...

Drew's mom came over to the game watch vs. Wisconsin. The woman described as his aunt(Her name is Karen-she is Drews moms best friend) comes almost every week. They still have these jerseys and wear them occasionally. His actual aunt Kristi Olin also is there every week. Kristi and I ran the...

Well its not the NFL but I believe Jovon Johnson and Nolan MacMillan start for the Ottawa Redbacks in the Canadian Football League.

We just got back from Calgary last night. I had seen Drew Tate a couple of times this spring in Houston once at a Iowa club gathering and once at an Iowa alumni event at a hotel. He and I talked and I said I was probably going to one of the Stampeder games. Although he said he would get me...

The NCAA is smart about the Frozen Four(hockey). They take a weekend off and play the weekend after the Final Four.

Sorry dont need a charter. I can ride metrorail from my office downtown.

Sure was Drew. He actually lives down the street in the offseason from the bar where we meet in the Houston heights.

Hint: He played football for Iowa

We had a game watch in Houston today. anyone recognize the guy in the picture. Sorry I cant figure how to turn it rightside up.

I am in Rio for the holidays with the inlaws. will be on Copacabana tommorow drinking a caparinha. I think that will do it.

Except for the last quarter of the minny game I watched every minute of every game. I am also a season ticket holder of university of Houston. Except for the Pitt game I went to and the weekend the Hawks were in ny I saw all their games. Tony Levine got canned even though they went to two...

Since its only 3 downs they have a rushing QB. The CFL is the second most popular sport in Canada behind hockey. Drews parents come to the Houston game watches now and then. His moms best friend and his aunt come every week. They said Drew hopes to be traded to a team where he can start. However...

The 8th official(C) was the brain child of Walter Anderson the Big 12 supervisor who lives in Sugarland TX and is an NFL official. The main purpose of the C official is to spot the bill. Anderson really pushed this idea. From my understanding talking to local HS officials its a young guy. At...

The Houston Iowa Club is meeting at Buffalo Wild Wings on Washington. SRO closed a couple of years ago. The place in Willowbrook was a temporary deal. If anyone is looking for a Hawkeye bar elsewhere good luck. We have had the same leadership for a long time. Not into multiple places. The Hawks...

No we decided after last year we had to get back inside the loop to increase attendance. We are now at Buffalo Wild Wings on Washington between Shepherd and Heights. The Willowbrook location was a short notice deal last year due to the designated bar backing out on us at the last minute.

today we had 6 former players join us to watch Hawks. Some guys date back to Hayden Fry era. Can anyone ID all these guys. i think the club leader got all their names but I dont have them. Had almost 90 at gathering today. Definitely a record for us.

Conor Boffeli was cut by Texans today. James Ferentz is still on roster however. Maybe he can stick along with CJ.
