    CJ Beathard is OURS!

    Wonder what position this guy will end up moving to? He won't see the field or have a chance to see the field for at least another 3 years. There are upper classmen ahead of them and we all know they will play before an underclassman.

    Is KF's job to win football games or send bodies to the NFL?

    Bielma and Wisconsin doesn't have a problem competing do they? Use the Minnesota example if you like but if Minnesota gets a good coach, Minnesota will be back, just like Illinois. Bielma gets rid of staff that he thinks doesn't think is performing well enough and he adjusts his offense and...

    Is KF's job to win football games or send bodies to the NFL?

    Ferentz is going to be at Iowa for a long time yet and Iowa fans just have to accept him and his coaching for what they are...mostly an average season with a low tier bowl, and on occasion they have a good year and get a BCS bowl. His contract has ensured that Iowa can do nothing regardless of...

    It can be embarrassing to be an Iowa Fan

    I would venture to say that virtually every program has the same "type" of fans and those fans do the same exact thing. In fact, in some programs it is probably even worse. Iowa fans are no less or no better than other fans. Just something that goes with the communication age that we live in...

    how big would the meltdown be...

    One key to the success of this season was Basabe; another major key was Cartwright. Basabe just is not the same player he was last year and who knows why? He definitely is the difference in some of the losses this year. Play like he did last year and we win some of those games. Perhaps it is...

    Gessel highlights

    I can say one thing, if Paige plays defense like that at NC, he will be on the bench most of career.

    I'm taking opinions on Marble's future at the point.

    For a freshman to come in and immediately start at point (arguably the most difficult position on the floor) when the team has a player who has effectively played 1 year at point and has 2 years of experience will be very difficult. That is not to say that Fran is not going to get his two new...

    Hill decommits from ISU, joins hawks

    Wonder why ISU's running backs all stay and Iowa's running backs all leave after a year? Maybe KF should talk with Roades to see what he is doing to keep his backs more than a year?

    Derby Enrolls in Juco, will play QB

    At least he will be playing fb and not sitting on the bench.

    Rating Iowa's Remaining Basketball Schedule

    In reality, with the 3-point shot and the clock shot, if a team gets hot they can close a gap of 15 points fairly quickly. The fact that a team is up by 15 to 17 points and the other team catches up is a regular occurrence. Hit 20 points and it begins to get more difficult. Before the 3-point...

    Rating Iowa's Remaining Basketball Schedule

    I was in Las Vegas watching the game, sitting next to a Illinois fan who was also losing. We were the ONLY two in a madhouse of fans who were not cheering for NW State. When NW State won, the place was complete bedlam and I of course was stunned and very angry that Alford blew it again. Funny...

    Rating Iowa's Remaining Basketball Schedule

    Teams above and below us.. Three teams below...difference of one win. Minnesota has the same number of wins...3 Three teams above us with four wins. So there are 7 B1G teams, and there are two games separating the above from the below and two teams where 1 game separates them from being in the...

    If it's Phil Parker, what's your reaction?

    Think about KF's past decisions and his basic nature. He had to have a final three so he adds one outsider, a former PSU coach, knowing fully well that if he selects that coach, the selection could cause a great controversey. KF does not do controversey...PSU coach out! His other choice is his...

    Really good class

    Think they will play before their junior season? At least it won't take these young men long to learn the seven plays that KOK routinely uses. Of course they won't get much of a chance early in their careers because they will be too young and Iowa's playbook is VERY difficult to learn, too much...

    internal hire vs new blood

    I think most people know that Ferentz has to go through the motions but in the end will be loyal and faithful and will put friendship over the health of the program and will select Parker. I doubt anyone else really had a chance (except his son perhaps). Bring in an outsider, interview him, and...

    For all the Tyler Sash shouldn't go pro crowd

    Good for Tyler...Iowa boy makes good...very good! I wish him all the success in the world. He simply had nothing to gain by sticking around especially the way the Hawks played.

    DL Next year

    Well, at least when the ultra conservative, take no chance play loses games next year KF will always have the excuse that we are young. Oh wait, he uses that excuse about every year...

    Garmon's highlights remind me of Sedrick Shaw.

    Wonder how long this guy will play for Iowa...if he does.
