Slowing the game down to a crawl is not playing defense.

And, of course, the guy that burned us so bad with his unconscious three point shooting went 1 for 4 last night. Just another name that will only be remembered by Hawk fans for his one unbelievable night.

None of our QB's came into the season with any real college experience. Sometimes, the player that looks best in practice, just can't cut it when the real bullets start flying. You never know when you might find the solution you need sitting on your bench. That said, Ferentz has a history of...

How many times have we heard opposing coaches say they understand perfectly what Iowa is trying to do, but the trick is to stop it. If you have superior players, which despite an NFL bound player or two on the Hawks squad, many teams do, it makes it a lot easier to stop.

I guess the only good news from this situation was that he was able to walk away from it

Horrible rule. I realize that a lot of seniors won't take advantage of a chance to play for a fifth year, but there will be some, especially those who have no realistic professional aspirations. What happens to the incoming freshmen? Will squad size be increased to accommodate them? If a...

You'd hope. I guess we'll see who McCaffery signs in the spring. We need a talented big.

BTW, Dickie V has the Hawks listed 12th in his rankings, behind Wisconsin(5) and Michigan St.(7), but ahead of Illinois(16), Michigan(22), Rutgers(25), Ohio St.(31), Indiana(36), Purdue(39) and UNI(40).

Was the "ten game rule" that Bohannon took advantage of last season just for those who were shutting down due to an injury?

Yet some people still bitched about the schedule. And haven't the Gavitt Games been cancelled for this season?

Just don't see how this plan is feasible, especially if there actually is a basketball season. HS athletes would continue to graduate and look to play at the next level. If everyone gets another year and we just have a do over year, what spots will open? Doesn't make any sense to me. Am I...

To say the Cubs went meekly is giving them too much credit.

Sounds like another great Iowa kid. Great shooter who has been working hard on his ballhandling. Doesn't need to contribute immediately. Hope he is a slightly bigger Joe W.

And I guarantee they won't win again if they don't score, which at this point (thru 4), they haven't. One run thru 13 innings Whoa! Those bats are smokin'!. And yes Rob, I know you were referring to the rainout.

As I watched the game yesterday, it seems as though a lot of Cub batters (can't call them hitters) have adopted a looping swing in order to finish with a upward angle. I suppose that is to try and hit the ball in the air, but what it usually results in is either a SO, a pop up or a lazy fly...

I heard on a podcast that McCaffery thinks there will still be a 20 game conference schedule plus the ACC/B1G Challenge, the Iowa St. game, the Oregon St. game in Sioux City, and a Hawkeye Challenge Tournament here in IC. He wasn't sure about the Gavitt Games. BTW, he also mentioned that his...

I probably have a different take on Bryant than many here. I actually feel badly for him. He has been a success at every level from Little League to the Majors and for him suddenly, for whatever reason, be unable to excel, it must be pretty frustrating for him. From his interviews, he seems...

Had to laugh at Nebraska's AD complaining about their B1G schedule. Boo Hoo, Bitch! You've got your savior in place. Let him work his miracles.

Might have been the highest bat flip I've ever seen. Now if we can get all the Cub hitters that are straddling the Mendoza line to the point that they can flip bats after a big hit, maybe we'll have something.

Gotta fire the manager!
