    Here we go again with Urban Meyer's Health Issues

    It isn’t hard to figure out it is time to leave the University of Minnesota when Norte Dame comes calling. He left Arkansas after some good years to take the New York Jets head coaching job when Joe Namath was near the end of his career.

    Pass on the last play

    I was at that game and the Iowa QB was Cornelius “Corky” Robertson.

    Amani Jones Targeting Call

    So you believe it is more likely that you understand the rule than a trained official? Where were you trained on this rule interpretation or what formal training have you had in football officiating during your life?

    Amani Jones Targeting Call

    I think you are clueless. Do you realize there is a definition of targeting that is independent of the reaction of the player that is hit?

    Amani Jones Targeting Call

    Where was it confirmed by the conference upon review that the officials were wrong in their call? I didn’t see this, but maybe I missed it.

    Amani Jones Targeting Call

    I believe if you hit another player in the head or neck area with the shoulder, and he is deemed a defenseless receiver, then it is a targeting penalty. I think the officials determined that this is what happened.

    Should Peyton Mansell Get At Least A Series A Game?

    The pretty good to really good QBs under Hayden never gave up a drive to a backup. Long, Hartlieb, Rodgers and Sherman? I don’t think any of them ever sat when healthy until it was mopup time. Now, some others that were mediocre to average, maybe that is what you remember. To your point...

    My goodness, enough of this "we gifted them a win" nonsense

    I will tip my cap to them for making plays when they had opportunities. But we certainly gifted them some opportunities. And we could have called a pass on fourth down an waltzed into the end zone. But in order to do that you have to actually call the play. It works a LOT in that situation. A...

    My goodness, enough of this "we gifted them a win" nonsense

    Actually, I think I would have said that and been fine with it. I have been in that situation before and said just that. I dont know if I would have added that they were clearly the better team. But make no mistake, we did gift wrap that one for them. What else do you call it when they don’t do...

    ESPN Gameday in Play for Wisconsin @ Iowa

    I was I wasn’t going to comment. But now I can’t help myself. Anyone that makes up stupid reasons to not watch/listen to Herbstreit probably should be ignored. And you gave a stupid reason, which is ostensibly no reason. So you made one up. He is as knowledgeable as anyone in the game and if...

    Where can I find the most current two-deeps?

    I feel like I should know where this is, and almost feel stupid for asking, like I must be missing something obvious. But where in the heck do I find the most current two-deeps or the football team? Thanks I advance.

    Missing University of Iowa Student, Mollie Tibbetts

    This is a Hawkeye football message board. I’m curious as to why you felt the need to post this information. This is not a random thoughts about anything Iowa message board.

    Cornerback Manny Rugamba Leaving Iowa Program

    I don’t think I have seen anyone on here suggest this, but perhaps he had decided he was going to leave the program BEFORE he tweeted.

    Barta Are you for real?

    I am sure as far as you are concerned nothing KF has done was ever right or even pretty good. If he ever had any really good season surely you would explain that away and not give him credit. People like you only give blame. Out of curiosity, can you come up with any great thing or strong...

    Barta Are you for real?

    You do realize that we are only giving up one game it is either Drake or UNI, correct, and not both, correct?

    Barta Are you for real?

    How many conference championships does Oklahoma State have since 1999? How many does Iowa have? You will bitch and say that they aren’t out right championships that Iowa has. It’s still more than one Oklahoma State has. Just because he is loud and brash doesn’t make him more successful than KF...

    When was I or were you this down on Hawk bball?

    So easy to say since you will never get the chance. Wait, you could go to an I-Club event that he is at and call him that in front of a crowd with a mic in your hands. But you wouldn’t do that because then everyone could see who you are and you would look like the immature person that you have...

    When was I or were you this down on Hawk bball?

    What is funny is how you think it is so cool for you to call Barta gutless on the internet when there is no way you would do that to his face. That actually makes you gutless. You talk really big on the message board. Good for you, Gutless. And there is the difference. You see, based upon what...

    Sounds like it's not all Fran's fault we can't get grad transfers

    If we are talking about a grand transfer wouldn’t they have graduated from their previous school in three years? That is the only way to be a grad transfer, correct? If that is the case, then wouldn’t someone that graduated with a four year degree in three years probably also have a 3.0 grade...

    Why do the donors love the Ferentz family so much?

    THIS!!!! I think I have seen all but a handful of Iowa football games that have been televised, since Hayden arrived. I have listened to the others, like the last second OSU win on the Hartlieb TD pass, on radio. If I had taken the time to respond, as a third generation Iowa grad, starting...
