    DJK interview. Some good info here.

    That's where the "execution" or lack thereof comes from...our coaches call plays and expect it to be executed (a.k.a. work) perfectly regardless of the personnel group on the field...which is fine many times...but they don't seem to be flexible to call plays suitable to the players on the field...

    DJK interview. Some good info here.

    LOL, I like their podcast but usually it sounds like 2 meatheads saying 'dude' a lot in between reps of variable substance.

    What stings the most...

    Agree. That said, there just seems to be a different coaching mentality this year to last. Last year it seemed like no on gave a F and they went out as hard as possible every week. This year I sense a hesitation on offense and defensive miscues not to mention sloppiness (i.e. penalties) that is...

    What does this say about Iowa if Oregon..."has been heading in wrong direction?"

    http://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/the-monday-after-oregon-is-slowing-fading-away-and-needs-to-move-on-from-its-coach/ Interesting perspective on a program that hasn't seen less than 9 wins since 2006 yet is perceived as going in the wrong direction...we've seen 9+ wins 6 times in...

    I think Hlas read my post....

    What I'd like to know is why the media doesn't blast this kind of stuff in KF's face during post game interviews rather than ask questions that yield he standard canned responses. I sent Moorehouse some salary vs wins stuff compared to the top paid coaches at the time...we pay for mediocrity...

    I think we've all been enrolled in the jelly of the month club...

    we thought it'd be a fruitful season with a nice holiday time bonus but instead weve enrolled (and will be suffering from for the next several seasons) in the gift that keeps on giving...thanks Gary

    We're killing ourselves....

    Duh, of course, and it will be so obvious because that's the only play they will put him in for...he'll miss the hole and it'll go for -1.

    Why are we not seeing Derrick Mitchell?

    In the words of KF, that's football. He'll get his touches and screen passes and other trickery. It's only been through Week 2, cant give all the weapons away on film...

    I think this year we finally lay it on them, and hopefully keep kicking when they are down...Hawks 55 Clowns 27...

    A Major Run?

    Answer to Question 1 - probably not at this point; I would think PSU and Michigan would rather have someone else on the schedule if a HEALTHY Iowa team is off and rolling in November. Commentary on the rest...we have a huge upside this season and anything is possible and it's really up to the...

    Bison getting all they can handle from Charleston So.

    I love the confidence...I was worried about this one from the moment it was scheduled and thought this could be the one blemish on an otherwise awesome season. Seems like NDSU might kind of NDSUck from the in depth analysis above. Would love love love to see us run up 40+ on these guys...welcome...

    Iowa Strength Coach Is Making $595,000 This Year

    The tone of the article in USA Today kind of seems like they're doggin us for paying the coaches so high.

    Tailgate Tunes...Playlist must have's?

    Got very tired of reading about recruits, what happened last season, 2016 what ifs, season predictions, and other summertime filler and started thinking instead about partying and tailgating. Iowa fight songs and Back in Black aside, what are some must haves on the tailgate playlist? When you...

    Vegas over-under for Iowa 8.5 wins

    Agree on the NDSU note. They are always REALLY good and is probably the toughest FCS school you can schedule. A W there does nothing for Iowa because they are FCS, but a loss is devastating. To me it's a lose lose scheduling blunder. Would have been better off scheduling another MAC, Sun Belt...

    Rudock Appears to be in Good Spot w/ Lions

    Practice squad guys get minimum $6600 a week; if you spend a whole season there, not a bad year's pay. Of course those guys are pretty dispensable. Wonder if he (Stanzi) ever considered the armed forces? I bet he'd have mad distance and accuracy with a hand grenade. If you don't love it, leave...

    Will Beathard have a big season?
