    There are high end hookers and the street hookers cruising the beat.

    Kirk Herbstreit names Hawkeyes as B1G Sleeper

    Yea, but labeling a team a sleeper is always at the beginning of the season before you know the outcome of games. That's why they are called sleepers.

    Iowa Receivers Depth Chart

    What I have liked hearing is that Gronk has the ability to change the defense's coverage where he can buy time instead of just throwing a hot route when pressure comes. They've stated he has the ability to move a bit to buy an extra 1-2 seconds where he can hit a skinny seam route down the field...

    Iowa Receivers Depth Chart

    I agree. There might be one true starter, but I feel they'll look at matchups each game and some may get more snaps in particular games or who seems hot. I think it'll be by committee. The true question will be if Gronk and the WR's will be on the same page as the routes can change with what...

    Athletic's Mandel Likes Iowa

    I'd prefer IA State to beat Kansas St. so when Iowa beats IA. State it means more on their record. Plus, I don't hate IA. State.

    CBS Sports "IOWA most underated Big Ten Team"

    written by Riley Donald, Hawkeye Wire. But, he very well could be right, though!

    CBS Sports "IOWA most underated Big Ten Team"

    It doesn't make every conference game meaningful. If expanding that much takes place, teams could have 3-4 losses in conference and still have a chance to make the playoffs. Then all of a sudden, an Ohio St. loss to Michigan doesn't siderail Ohio St's season. Remember all the years, the Iowa vs...

    Touring Bike (not the pedal kind...)

    Here was my daily driver when I was 11 or 12.

    Who's Attending Games This Year?

    LOL. Years ago, even before this site (Prob Jon Miller's original site) old Rob banned me as I was bantering back and forth with administrator bouncing back and forth jokes with the Administrator. We were both making same funny points. He banned me out of the blue. He had a very short fuse back...

    DL "too good to be true"

    OL and DL are to be top units in the BIG and maybe nationally. That means you should have a chance to control the run game on both sides of the ball. On offense that means controlling the LOS and winning the TOP stats. People, we are going to have some close fun games. Iowa should be looked at...

    Former Players On Ferentz’s Impact

    Entitled freaking pricks. Sad thing is we are generations down the line now having these kinds of individuals raising kids who will in turn, turn out the same or worse when raising their kids.

    Former Players On Ferentz’s Impact

    They might not have had great QB play, but damn, they'd have a solid O-line & punting.

    Former Players On Ferentz’s Impact

    Lol. Ironically in all this, Jacksonville is the one NFL team that coach Ferentz might have thought to jumping to coach in the NFL. I think the only serious rumors years ago.

    Who's Attending Games This Year?

    Yep, that's the way to do it. I've got a TV in my garage as well but is just too messy at this point to host people. Too many projects going on that I start and don't finish. I really do need to get that cleaned up and the walls painted!

    Former Players On Ferentz’s Impact

    I particularly thought the Spencer Petras story was rather interesting. I didn't realize he got hurt at Utah State than Ferentz invited him back to the Iowa Pro Day after. In addition had Iowa's sports medicine operate on him and Petras worked out at the Iowa facilities. Wow!

    Who's Attending Games This Year?

    As stated above, I actually enjoy watching games on TV than going to the game. The actual act of watching, especially the big games with a national broadcast crew. I would enjoy the atmosphere at the game, though. I enjoy listening to the comments from the broadcasters, some better than others...

    Who's Attending Games This Year?

    I live about 8 miles from Kinnick and don't care to get season tickets anymore. Done it in the past but just too old to put up with the hassle and lose 6 entire Saturdays. Just too convenient sitting in front of the big screen with the bathroom 30 ft away I guess.
