Iowa will be a 1 seed

Incredible championship win. This team played with so much heart. They were down 8 with 2:05 left

I criticized Fran several weeks ago and dismissed the prospects of this team. I was wrong. There is plenty of talent on this year's team. Let's see what happens during the rest of the year. This is a good time of the year to be playing your best basketball. A win Sunday against a good...

I know some people don't care about the NIT, but an NIT bid or an NCAA bid would be a tremendous achievement by this team. This team is capable of a deep run in the NIT, a tournament Iowa has never won (finished runner-up once). I really believe that a win over Illinois and one win in the BTT...

Patrick McCaffery is an outstanding young man. I cannot even imagine how difficult it is for a son to play for his father at this elite level of basketball. The scrutiny and the negativity can be overwhelming unless the team is winning constantly. I'll probably get in trouble for this, but I...

I think it is Kevin Johns. The deal is done. I do have a good source

I think they just announced it

Really, really troubling. Noah Shannon’s betting was so minor. That something so trivial in nature could result in such a horrible result for an outstanding young man really takes my breath away. It is truly horrific.

Very happy to have been wrong on this one.

Caitlin Clark has to be on the Mount Rushmore of the best athletes ever to wear the Black and Gold.

Calling it right now: Nebraska beats Iowa tomorrow night. Nebraska plays defense; Iowa does not.

He won't retire anytime soon. He still has Phil Parker and a good defense coming back.

Wisconsin by far. Always a huge win

A lot of wisdom in this post. My son was a trombone player in the Iowa marching band for 4 years. It was a lot of work. He was in the stands with the band for Tate to Holloway. Another meaningless game? Not to me or to him.

I have no idea what to expect. We are playing on New Years Day against a good SEC team so it will mean a lot to these Iowa players. If Hill can hang onto the dang ball, we have a chance. Bowl games matter to the players playing in the game. I’ll always believe that.

I’ll be very happy to be wrong. I root for Iowa and I graduated from the school. I just see a huge talent gap right now. Hope I am wrong

we will see. Lots of big games ahead.

I’ll close by saying that I love Fran and have defended him for a long time. But this feels different to me. Coaches sell hope and future improvement. They sell energy and enthusiasm. Fran looks exhausted. It’s a tough league. You have a new AD. Perhaps they get it going in the Big Ten, led...

We beat a team tonight ranked 327 by Pomeroy. Let’s see how they do against Wisconsin. Perkins is a fine player. I certainly agree with that. . If you can’t defend, you cannot win in the Big Ten. We aren’t defending against the good teams so far. Is that lack of effort? Possibly. Or is it...

The Hindenburg with George C Scott and “Zeppelin” are separate movies. Zeppelin was about World War I.
