    What's your threshold for a raise and extension this year?

    If that happen, KF most likely wins NCAAF National Coach of the year. A West. Conf. Championship and he probably gets B1G coach of the year (depending on how Jimbo does in Ann Arbor).

    Tevaun Smith injury rumor

    I don't think this is entirely true. While Smith has ability to stretch the field and hit the home run ball, I think we still have the weapons to keep WI guessing. Think triple TE's vs OSU a couple years ago. Also, McCarron and Vandeberg seem to be pretty capable receivers alongside Hillyer...

    Tyler Sash Has Died

    100% Right on, Jon. Regardless of how Tyler left this world, I hope he can be remembered for not just being a heck of a football player but of a person who showcased qualities of a great human being. He was a passionate Hawkeye and will be forever missed. Hoping to see #9 patches on the...

    Rudock and Michigan against Utah game thread

    I was hoping Jake had a decent game, have nothing against the kid. People have been pretty harsh on the guy. That said, Jake's performance tonight at the least consistent (with all his past performances) and was pretty vindicating for Iowa, KF, and staff as Michigan fans saw exactly what we saw...

    Mike Daniels Mic'd Up...

    Haha, only if you're Terry Tate, Office Linebacker! (it's been a slow work day!)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kg5cdZ-Fnpc

    Herky...the old and the new

    LOL That looks like Homer Simpson

    Herky...the old and the new

    I like the change, I always thought the old Herky looked ridiculous... looked like they put a hawk helmet on our 4th string kicker. The new Herky at least looks like he stands a chance against Sparty or Bucky in a street fight.

    Mike Daniels Mic'd Up...

    Thought this might bring a little levity to the Iowa football sitch: http://www.packers.com/media-center/videos/Sound-FX-Mike-Daniels-micd-up-vs-Lions/1d3877e7-167d-44e7-8833-947e03db126e Also appearances by Micah Hyde and Reilly Reiff

    The Fascinating Case of the Iowa Quarterbacks

    Granted no player would really come out and say it, but does anyone know if there is a sentiment in the locker room (especially from the skill positions) of who the team prefers?

    What Is This Obsession With Brett Bielema?

    Eh, I've heard he's actually a pretty giant d#ck head...but then again maybe Iowa could use a guy like like Bret Bielema...if Princeton could use a guy like Joel Goodson...

    If Iowa beats Tenn. will it erase the 5 losses?

    HA, no. Not even close.

    We won't avg 63,000 fans next year...

    And we shouldn't. Our program is a joke that doesn't demand winning and accepts mediocrity and the gameday atmosphere inside, outside and around Kinnick is downright embarrassing these days. I went to a couple games this year (haven't been in a several years as I live out of state) and was...

    Pelini fired

    Just for comparison...Pelini had 9+ wins in every season he coached at Nebby, 7 straight seasons and finished ranked in 5/7 of those seasons...KF in 16 seasons has had 5 9+ win seasons and only finished ranked 5 times in 16 seasons (not ranked since 2009)...KF does have 2 BCS Bowl appearances...

    BTN's Dienhart rates Iowa #7 LB group

    Obviously we are going to be rated low because no one has really seen these guys too much and why go out on a limb. But (as I posted in another thread) I think Alston is going to be the man this year. The guy played in every game last year, is pretty big, is a Sr. and I think he'll blow up like...

    Miller & Deace: Picking Iowa Game By Game

    One prediction here at LB, is that Quinton Alston will be the man this year. I think he is going to explode like Mike Daniels did once he got his shot and be a 4th round pick. Yeah we replace 3 starters, but all have played to some capacity. If one stands out and becomes an animal (like I...

    Weisman at Fullback?

    Been a while since I've been on the site so not sure if anyone else has brought this up recently but this year we seem to have the luxury of multiple talented RB's, does anyone think it'd be effective to run multiple RB sets or use Big Mark in the fullback slot? Thinking since he's not that...

    How could the Bielema to Arkansas move have happened?

    So Arkansas fans are like Iowa fans?

    It's Fair to Say We've Hit Rock Bottom

    Rock Bottom will be when we lose out and fail to score offensive TD's in our last 2 games while being beaten by 50 points. Nebrasksa should come in at like 15+point favorites and although we've had Michigan's number, I think they will beat the $hit out of us. To top it off Kirk's response to the...

    Preview: Will Iowa End Skid in Indiana?

    Here's my prediction: Iowa gets the ball first and gives us hope by giving us a field goal. But on Indiana’s next possession, they score a TD and run rampant over our D. We proceed to Punt a few more times, they score 10, then we get another FG making halftime 17-6. Defense looks good in the 3rd...
