A coaching change nowadays leads to all players leaving. If losing Dix and Freeman was the price to land BMC, I am SUPER HAPPY to make that exchange. The alternative was watching Fran win 19 games again.

It was great great great to hear the big crowd response to Molly. There were a TON of Molly tshirts worn in the stands by both young and old yesterday, including yours truly. Agree that Chit Chat is a really really good player and wow are we lucky to land both her and Rodriguez in the portal...

12 vs 32, so a bigger difference. It will be a positive move for UCLA, but their athletic dept is already hugely in debt and this won't help. They are probably one of the schools pushing the most for the private equity deal that could ruin the B1G.

Iowa defeats Evansville 119-43. Scoring from everyone, led by Layla Hays with 20. We have a great 1-2 punch at the 5.

Kylie will finish on the top 10 deflections list.

HH, I can tell you read a lot on the internet, so you probably confused with another article. The poll includes links to previous years. Looking at last years, DeVries was 7th. He apparently just doesn't have a great reputation among other coaches. Who was the best high-major coaching hire...

Because Fran's entire coaching philosophy was towards offense, which included defensive concepts that were dedicated to getting into transition and improving the offense. EVERYTHING was about offense. Seems like it is easier to be elite offensively when you barely try on defense. BMC teams...

BMC seems like a guy who does every part of the job well, which includes fan and community engagement. We are lucky to have hired him.

Found the CBS poll linked below, thanks for mentioning it, HH. Odd to see Devries not mentioned at all. Who was the best hire of the 2025 hiring cycle? Ben McCollum, Iowa 25% Will Wade, NC State 22% Sean Miller, Texas 21% Ryan Odom, Virginia 9% Buzz Williams, Maryland 7% Niko...

From word on the ground, it didn't matter how early you showed up. It mattered how much you ran, trampled, and pushed when they opened the gates at 7:20. (Not the announced 7:30)

Gain more yards. Score more points.

The near pick-six-into-touchback was absolutely killer.

Yeah, I would prefer snow over a cold rain. Either way, I'll be there! See you all in Kinnick!!!!

Here is the Big Noon Kickoff wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Noon_Kickoff Looks like this is the first game this season they are going to a different site than the Big Noon Game. Last year they did it zero times. 2023 twice. 2022 none. 2021 none. So maybe the third time ever?

Fitz "not knowing" is laugh out loud funny. He almost certainly knew about it, but if he somehow didn't, then he is a clown of a head coach. These guys control every tiny aspect of their player's lives, yet somehow he didn't know players were slapping younger players with their dicks in the...

Very very happy we got McCollum.

Only a 97% chance of rain at kickoff. Bring your ponchos.

It is not a given. But I could see Kirk be a guy who retires in April to force their hand.

I could see Kirk retiring in April to make sure one of his guys takes over.
