Yeah cause when you play the back shoulder/jump balls to the taller longer guys there's no strategy that goes into that. Just chemistry with the QB and receiver It's just basketball on grass. You're posting up a power forward on the pg in some cases. We had fun doing that with Brandon Smith...

No real surprises honestly. I think it's a coin flip on which LT ends up starting. It'd be nice if whomever that ends up being does well and they don't swap them out constantly. But I get the feeling he'll do some kind of rotation where they play two series and swap em out kinda thing until one...

Well I think our D line should dominate anyway that should help negate their QB and passing game. I also think if we run our QB that we could take advantage of that I thought KSU had some moments where that worked well for them. But they didn't stick with it. That was kind of a slow track they...

Kittle once he plays out his current deal will pass that it looks like yeah. Wirfs most certainly will his deal was for like 140 large I think. Alaric Jackson has a deal for almost 20 mill per/yr atm for 3 yrs if he does well and stays healthy don't be surprised if he does too. Starting LTs make...

He and Stephens on the left side woulda been road graters. Don't forget about Nick Brooks he was committed at one time too... Woulda coulda shoulda almost

Damn... That's really high. He must have PSU & OSU above us I'd assume? They'll be some cannibalism going on but if Iowa's going to finish that high they can't lose more then 2 games in the conference I wouldn't think. I'll sign up for him being right that's for sure.

I think they'll have packages for situational football. They have guys for all different situations. They could have RVZ on one side Howard on the other with any number of guys in the slot in a 3 WR formation. Lester has lots of options with who to play. I don't think who starts will matter as...

He certainly appreciates the big guy. Came in as a rookie starting at RT and didn't just do ok. He dominated and helped em win a ring. Brady isn't a dummy by any means. They got so lucky he fell into their laps. He was the 4th tackle taken. The 9ers coulda had him just before that pick but they...

To this day still has the most unreal coaching tree. He knew how to hire good assistants that had aspirations of being HCs themselves down the road. He had a mix of young guys and older guys you name it. Bill Snyder followed Fry from North TX he'd originally been his QB coach there before...

I agree not making the dance is unacceptable for decent programs. It's the on the floor reason why Fran needed to go. (obviously the empty seats had became a problem too) Hoiberg has been there long enough now that honeymoon is long over. Those have only gotten shorter and shorter for coaches...

But can he play football? Some guys are weight room warriors but can't translate it to the football field. We haven't seen him do anything yet. We may not see him this yr besides special teams. Remember Amani Jones. Dude was built like a brick shithouse but once he was on the field couldn't seem...

2015 I think that really got started when we lost to Stanford in Rose Bowl. But then he really banged that drum hard in 2019. I think cause we ended up slapping around his precious USC Trojans. But the point being made of all that was the schedules the BIG west played was significantly softer...

This is where the politics of NIL and transfer portal come into play. Say the kid they paid a lot to transfer in is getting outplayed by the 2 star sophomore recruit kinda thing. I kinda think we ran into that last yr with Cade and Brenden Sullivan. Does anyone think that Cade was out playing...

And the folks that do get shitfaced I have no idea how they do it... None at all. Tailgate early put in a crazy long day of partying and the game then I assume the drunks are riding home and not driving but I'm sure I'm wrong about that to whatever % of them do. But when I did go to some games I...

Me either. Tried watching the Super Bowl at a bar a couple times. Mostly cause I didn't give a shit about the teams involved. But yeah that's not my thing either. I'd rather be at the game then do that.

It's a shit ton of walking to get around on game days.. I'm not saying one has to be in great shape to do it but ya can't have a bum wheel and have much fun doing it. At least I wouldn't want to try it. Everything about how convenient things are to be able to watch games (plural can channel...

Thanks for posting this!!! Hell of an article. I admire writers that are story tellers and that can put something together like that. The going back in time and contextualizing everything is so needed when talking about someone like KF. So well done and we should be thanking our lucky stars that...

I wonder how many folks in the NW corner of Iowa make the trip to IC for games. It just takes a hell of a commitment to do that. It's 4-6 hours one way depending on where you're at up there. Fighting traffic, parking how much it all costs etc etc everything Fry rattled off. You can't be poor and...

I'd seen some of the clips. I'm actually more then ok with seeing some of the bad/miss handled snaps and exchange issues. That's the time to be having those. Now it's on film they have time to correct it. Those are just reps/chemistry issues that a guy like Mark is going to get down fine once he...

And DL I think the LB room is crazy deep with talent just not sure how ready the youngsters are to be out there incase they are needed. The DBs that and the OL seems to be a tad thin once you get past the starters. If Lauck takes the bull by the horn for that LT job and they all stay healthy...
