    What Iowa Sports Do You Follow Closely?

    Football I've followed ever since I was a kid too. I remember folks taking us to their friends parties for bowl games in the early 80s. Great memories Wrestling I only follow occasionally whenever it kinda came up and if I was channel surfing and it was on I would. But I couldn't tell you who...

    How bout them Hawks

    From the Wisky side of things they have nobody to blame but themselves. You go hiring a guy that's going to totally do a 180 to what your culture of 30 plus yrs has been and it blows up this soon/this bad then come on... Sure some in the media thought that it might work initially just because...

    Roasted Badger for Supper

    I was a little surprised seeing our QB out there as much as he was. He was really tentative. He didn't want to run and he wasn't himself when he did. Clearly we didn't need him either the only balls he completed were of the really short variety. 17 completions for 106 yards... That's hard to do...

    Media day!

    Agree not a good look at all. Yeah he was 6th man for Drake he only started 1 game last yr and avged 10 pts 5 rbs while playing 20 mins/gm pretty much.

    Media day!

    Yeah I'm not gonna pay any attention to that scrimmage we don't know who all played/how much. Just seems pointless. I'll wait till I can see how they look in a game where it counts. Not the best news here I just saw about Banks getting arrested. I'd seen on X rumors about it and sure enough...

    So is it all Money and NIL?

    Like anything in regards to sports it's all encompassing. Talent coached up is what wins so those who can combine those two things the best is who sustains winning. PSU atm is an example of how the $ isn't everything... Texas as well even though I know they just beat Oklahoma they aren't what...

    Roasted Badger for Supper

    Well that was fun. Wisky really sucks. We coulda put up 50 on em if we woulda had a better passing game and didn't call off the dogs as early as we did. If anything we went easy on em.

    So who's having the worst Sunday...

    Obviously both of those dudes are dead men walking. Just a matter of when will ADs rip off the band aids. I don't think it matters besides appeasing fanbases and getting a jump start on looking for a new coach. ADs could just start looking now behind the scenes without firing them yet. So I...

    Media day!

    Talk about an X factor... If he's what he's hyped to be it's gonna be tough to keep him off the floor let alone redshirt.

    DeVries

    Just how he conducts himself. There's nothing phony about him. He coulda climbed the ladder sooner from D2 then he did but he was happy where he was and wasn't just looking to climb for the sake of climbing. He coulda been happy staying at Drake awhile too. He says what he thinks and means...

    Nope not a 1. Not even a recruit.

    DeVries

    Well here is something some might raise an eyebrow at. At the end of last yr DeVries shut down his kid pretty early on saying he was injured. Well one of his teammates Sencire Harris who's since transfered to Cinci said that Tucker wasn't hurt... I had my suspicions that Darian had pretty much...

    Bennett Stirtz

    When it comes to Stirtz I still can't get over how he's exactly the unicorn that Fran was trying to find his entire tenure. He landed PGs that could play D but not shoot. He'd land PGs that could shoot but were too small/unathletic. Or guys that just didn't pan out and left. He could never...

    Media day!

    Wonder if any interesting tidbits will come out from it. What I'm most curious about we just won't know till they've played a few games. I want to know what the starting lineups gonna be and the rotation. Stirtz is obviously gonna be the main guy and probably rarely sit. I heard Ben on the radio...

    Hannah Stuelke

    Yeah she has tunnel vision and seems to make predetermined plays instead of reading the defense when it comes to dribbling and passing she just hasn't improved much at it. To me she kinda is who she is so it's on the coaches to not put too much on her. Use her like we did her first 2 yrs as a...

    UCLA knocks off Penn State 42-37

    Yeah I'm sure that PSU fan base is a total dumpster fire. Well the 56 large is estimated based on what's known about his deal. In 2021 he signed a 10 yr deal for 85 milly with the initial buyout being 64. So based on where they are in the deal now the 56 number is a guess but it's probably not...

    Hannah Stuelke

    Yeah last yr being looked at as a main leader on the team she did ok. Not great not fantastic or anything but she did ok. Many hoped she woulda taken a leap . But her FG% took a hit even though her attempts were pretty much the same. If that's not a direct effect of CC serving her up for layups...

    UCLA knocks off Penn State 42-37

    What ever nut job put a few bucks down on UCLA to win that is one lucky SOB. Unreal. Franklin is a total tool. But he's not going anywhere unless they come up with 56 milly to pay him off. So I think they're stuck with him for awhile

    Twin towers.... I could see them doing that for stretches of time on the floor depending on the opponent but I don't see them starting together. That's where I think Emely Rodriguez comes into play or Bjorn if they land her. I think ideally they'd like those two post players to split that spot...

    Addison Bjorn

    Well let you're imagination go for a second. In 2028 the womens final 4 is going to be in Indianapolis and they've already said it's going to be at the football stadium Lucas oil... Iowa could be smack dab in the middle of being really really good with all these recruits by then.. Imagine...
