    Expect status quo even without O’Keefe

    I suspect hiring practices are pretty much uniform in any university...KF will have to look at minorities and probably select a minority as one of the finalists. Hopefully, the University won't require him to ensure a woman is on the list. In the end he will hire someone he is very very...

    Woodbury turnaround that will translate to the college game

    Thanks for the numbers Ghost... I think those numbers put it into perspective a little better. Would we all like to think that AW will come in and be a dominant force his freshman year...yep. But it probably just is not going to happen. Almost all freshmen struggle, especially during conference...

    What might have been....

    Gosh, what if this team had lost to Wisky, Michigan, and both games to Minnesota... Gosh, what if this team had won four more games than they have now.... What if this team played the best defense in the NCAA, or the worst? Or the best offense, or the worst? Has there been disappointing times...

    So much for my post-season tourney article

    Save the articles for next year Stormin' cause next year we goin' dancin. All you will need do is change the names and maybe the records and maybe the dates but most everything else will be ok... At the beginning of the year we knew Iowa's success would depend on Basabe and Cartwright...

    Possible Rules Changes to College Kickoffs

    Something HAS to be done. Guys are getting bigger and bigger and bigger and faster and faster. The collisions on the field today are fierce. Players should not have to take hits like that. The head and body just are not made to sustain hits like we see, nor should college kids be injured so...

    Woodbury turnaround that will translate to the college game

    Patent those hook shots and it will be difficult, very difficult to block a 7' 1" hook shot. With his passing ability, if they double team Iowa will have an abundance of scorers hanging around the basket... Just the addition of a talented 7'1" center adds an entire dimension to a team. Add a...

    Will Woodbury have a Similar Impact as Zeller?

    I don't think Woodbury or Meyer will tear up the B1G next year. Woodbury and Meyer are going to have their tough times but they will also have some good times. Next year will be a learning year for them. They will however give Iowa a legitimate B1G center something Iowa has been missing for...

    Urban Cryer

    Best defense is a great offense...of course he is cheating, did he not coach in the SEC. If he didn't cheat there, he wasn't coaching...

    Urban Cryer

    The real problem is that the rest of the B1G coaches have no idea how to cheat in comparison to coaches from the SEC, unless of course it is Ohio State. Urban going to OSU just gave osu a huge edge in the cheating department...one that the rest of the B1G can't even begin to compare with. Plus...

    Possible Rules Changes to College Kickoffs

    I think eventually college football might just start putting flags on the belts of running backs, passers, receivers and the defense will just pull the flag from the belt. Once the flag is removed the play will be called dead. And coeds will be allowed to play because no one will be allowed to...

    T-Minus 1 Month Until MLS Starts

    I watch some soccer down here and there are some tremendous players. TV's here have it playing everywhere and people stand around and watch it like we do BB, FB, BB, women's swimming, and so on...I watch it for a little and find what some of the players do amazing but still find the game overall...

    Eating Crow.

    I hope the hawks have a great season, win the B1G, win the B1G title, and end up in a BCS Bowl. I am still a Hawk fan and have been for more than 55 years...I just have no expectations for the Iowa football program anymore... I have just tempered all of my expectations and just don't expect...

    Erik Campbell and Brian Ferentz

    I'm just wondering what position Mary is going to coach next year?

    My only true question: Did we truly hire the BEST available coaches out there?

    These hires had NOTHING to do with the hiring the best possible coaches. It had everything to do with loyalty and friendship and nothing more. Even IF one of the coaches are not doing the best possible job they can, it does not matter. Those two aspects are more important to KF than the Iowa...

    Shame on us

    Whoever he hires will do exactly as KF wants...the philosophy or style of Iowa football is not going to change one iota. What we have witnessed for what 12 years(?) is exactly what we will continue to witness. Mostly 7-5 seasons with half of those wins against cupcake teams. The rest of the...

    Miller: Staff Moves Elicit Emotional Responses...WHY?

    I don't understand why anyone thought the position would go to anyone but Phil Parker. The job was his the day Norm retired...if KF is one thing, he is loyal and his friendship overrides everything... It took 2 months simply because he had to jump through the required university hoops of...

    Ghost - your thoughts on some other candidates?

    Tony Dungy and Mike Ditka really wanted the job but Phil interviewed better from what I understand...but that may have been a rumor.
