Dammit Fry you made the thread and the rules now PLAY BY THEM! :P
Oh and that stupid NIL crap can go away. These kids are getting a scholarship for cripes sake!!!
I soooo wish you were joking or being sarcastic but this might not be far from the truth. They may have to take a few DB's that played WR in high school and have them run some routes.
THAT F*CKING TRANSFER PORTAL!!!!!
I FRIGGIN HATE THE TRANSFER PORTAL WHEN HAWKEYE PLAYERS I LIKE LEAVE!!!!
But I'm ok with the transfer portal when Iowa brings in new players I like.
Am I doing this right?
There are a couple of glaring omissions from this typical thank-you-but-I'm-moving-on post by Keegan. Anyone else picking up on it?
I could just be reading too much into it.
I'm not the guy you want but my perception of his comments were directed towards Nebraska not Iowa vs Nebraska but I'm sure he will respond.
My 2 cents on your question, even though you didn't ask, is stability. Iowa has the longest tenured HC in the Big Ten and that does make a difference...
I truly hope you are right but I don't feel this excitement surrounding the basketball program as there was in years past. I hate saying this but it almost feels like there is more excitement for the women's game right now, which is really bizarre. Even with the late start on a Tuesday night...
Maybe that punt doesn't get muffed?
Not sure how he would have impacted those losses but I find it very hard to believe adding an all conference WR would have had a zero impact.
Possibly 9 wins and win the West. There is NO way he has zero impact like others are suggesting here. With the margin of victory being razor thin in the ISU and Illinois game he could have made the difference.
I was thinking 5 pods for those last 3 but didn’t know how to organize it geographically while keeping rivals in tact. Maybe add MSU to that gawd awful 3rd pod but then you’d lose the annual MSU/MU tunnel fight. For scheduling purposes they could add an extra game for each team in those bottom...
You make some good points, I remember how worried everyone was when Frost got the job. Riley was very popular, he turned a dogshit Oregon State football program and got them decent. Callahan was a stupid hire all the way around, no idea what they were thinking as he had no ties to the...
If they went to that pod system I wouldn't mind Iowa being in with OSU and Michigan. I miss the ole days when there were just 10 teams in the conference and they played almost everyone in the conference. You can't beat the best if you don't play the best. Drag their asses into Kinnick every...
It's like I keep saying over and over the difference between the 2 divisions is Ohio State as they've been head and tails above everyone else in the conference for the past decade+. You put Ohio State in the West division and that balance shifts.
Hopefully the addition of USC and UCLA will...
Based on that Iowa has the best record against the East in the West division.
But that's probably because Iowa faced Rutgers 1 more time than Ohio State!!!!!
Perhaps they are better judging QBs than WRs although KF did say Jones was having a really good spring before he transferred. The difference between your WR claim and the QB situation is we have evidence at how awful Padilla looked when coming in for Petras. I gave Padilla a pass for the OSU...
I'm curious but if KF says Petras gave them the best chance to win and when Petras wasn't available he turned to Padilla, who looked horrible, I can't imagine how bad Labas must be when he was the 3rd string in that mess.
