    Center Court Scoreboard

    #1 - there were rigging problems in the early 90's but that was fixed, and that building can now hang well over 100,000 lbs in the air, with no problem. #2 - there is no steel grid which you see at most buildings. So to hang from the center would mean you'd have to bridle your hang points. #3...

    Any ways to customize forums as opt in (Wresting)

    Look - I'm just not into wrestling and the main page right now if I click on what's new has 7 separate threads on it. That's 35% of my front page dedicated to something I have no interest in. Is there a way to customize the What's New with the forums that are most relevant to you?

    Rittenburg just ******* NAILED it

    It isn't about his contract - stop talking about his ******* paycheck. The guy wants to win. Anyone who believes differently is an idiot not worth discussing this with. He isn't comfortable or happy with mediocrity. Anyone who believes differently is an idiot not worth discussing this with...

    Rittenburg just ******* NAILED it

    Iowa's retreat from Florida a B1G problem - Big Ten Blog - ESPN From the article It's great to see coaches develop talent and several Big Ten programs, including Iowa, have done that well over the years. But there's a ceiling for teams trying to win with overlooked recruits from the...

    Iowa Done Recruiting Florida????

    You're not wrong - not by a long shot. But that's not how it was positioned by the coaching staff... and if there is anything that this staff consistently stinks at, it's communications. To be fair, Barta isn't very good at this either.

    Iowa Done Recruiting Florida????

    Bottom Line - KF HAS LOST HIS WAY: When he came here, he built the program with the philosophy that we needed a great O-Line, and flat out speed everywhere else. You could muscle em up, but they had to be fast. Especially at the LB position which in our defensive scheme, had LB's covering...

    UNC has a B1G offer

    I think Delaney is going to get his way. The PAC-12 is an after thought in 75% of the country. But it's a pretty amazing conference both athletically and academically. Is it hard to imagine them becoming affiliated with the b1G as a branded division? You lock up markets like Seattle, San...

    UNC has a B1G offer

    I'll add that I don't think that ultimately they stop at 20. With Notre Dame, the BTN suddenly becomes a nationwide network, and a cash cow unlike any other. Look at all the schools in the region who are not being invited... this is becoming an athletic conference for Prestigious universities...

    UNC has a B1G offer

    So UNC, UVA, Duke and GT are next? There goes Notre Dame's ACC deal. I'd have to expect that Notre Dame and Boston College would be next.

    Iowa Done Recruiting Florida????

    It bothers me for a simple reason... We've had success in the past. If you had it because of Biels, than find out what made him successful and emulate it. Moreover, I think that Iowa Football should be a national brand. Obviously, competing against three state schools and a region makes...

    Hypothetical Question on Naming Rights

    You guys really ******* suck at hypothetical situations.

    Hypothetical Question on Naming Rights

    I am fairly certain that the UI receives no annual monies from the families of Kinnick, N or Carver, R.

    Hypothetical Question on Naming Rights

    Let's say that a booster wanted to make a game changing gift to the UI athletic department. Like a Nike or Boone Pickens sized gift. Best facilities in the B1G, renovating the rest of Kinnick and Carver. The catch is, she wants the stadium named after her. Non negotiable. Do you give up...

    MJ is LeBron's *****.

    Duff is right, and there was no bigger Chicago Bulls fan than this guy growing up in Chicagoland. LeBron is unlike anything we've ever seen as an athlete. What he doesn't have is the killer instinct. Remember that he is only 28.

    Living and Dying by the Two-Star (with some interesting data from HawkeyeGameFilm)

    Re: Living and Dying by the Two-Star (with some interesting data from HawkeyeGameFilm I think you can put boring game plan in the above, but by and large, I just think that we need better players. Last year wasn't a 4-8 year because of KF, it was that way because we had an astonishing lack of...

    Living and Dying by the Two-Star (with some interesting data from HawkeyeGameFilm)

    Re: Living and Dying by the Two-Star (with some interesting data from HawkeyeGameFilm It may not be easy, but there is no reason it has to be this hard either. I've said it before, and I'll say it again here. You have an amazing college town, great campus, wonderful facilities, hot girls...
