    Players that broke your heart

    For me as a kid growing up in the early 80's and seeing some of those teams progress and then reach success in the late 80's my heart break came when I heard Roy Marble had been suspended for drugs his rookie year. It was hard on me when one of the guys you idolize has issues like that.

    Wow, Eno Benjamin...

    Looking at his stats, in terms of running the ball I don't think his numbers jump out at you especially when you look at the competition they played and his YPC. What I do like about him from watching his tape is he was decisive and didn't dance a lot. He also had 42 receptions last year and...

    Nate Stanley to the Vikings in the 7th Round, Pick 244 Overall.

    Barring any injury set backs I think he has an excellent shot to win the back-up spot. I think with the system they have in place that is heavy play action it is a really good fit for him.

    George Kittle

    As good as Kittle is on the field I think it is likely with his personality and likability that he makes more money off the field through endorsements and other things that he will playing football.

    My Mock Draft 1.0

    People are pissed Wirfs went that high. I think he is very fortunate and is in position to have a very good career and be personally happy TB has greatly improved their locker room this off-season and he didn't get stuck with a terrible organization or state. Even if Brady and Gronk don't...

    I don't get running a sweep

    As stated earlier it is a numbers game and in the cases where the check down to this play occurs it is because of the numbers game. If Iowa has the numbers then they see it as a potential better scenario then the play they checked from. The big caveat to all of this as with pretty much every...

    Stanley NFL Draft highlight reel

    I'm still sticking with rounds 4-6. It all depends on team needs and who gets drafted where. There are always some surprises on draft day for some teams that end up screwing up their original plan. IF he can get with a good organization with a good scheme that fits his skills I think he can...

    Is Iowa Turning Into D-Back U?

    They are on the rise as a top tier program for that position but in no way Dback U. I think they produce some of the smartest and fundamentally sound Dbacks in the nation but The difference in talent as opposed to Ohio State in the same conference is still a lot. One dback alumni that is...

    Who Was Your Favorite Hawkeye that Things Didn't Work Out in Playing Time

    Hands down for me was Ray Thompson. Completely changed the dynamic of the team and could have been a huge seller for upcoming recruits. The guy was an absolute stud in a very loaded conference. By him staying he could have changed the complexion of Iowa BBall for the next decade. He is the...

    Bowlsby Questioning Whether Robust Season Possible

    Its getting to the point where you have to ask yourself if the cure is worse than the disease. Lots of people have died and millions of people's lives have been changed because of this virus. At some point society needs to decide if they want to go back to the way things were and take...

    Iowa Basketball's Luka Garza Wins Abdul-Jabbar Award

    If Iowa would have won 5 more games it would have helped even more, but Toppin was always the sexy pick and in my opinion Garza ad an outside chance to winning from the get go.

    Izzo

    This has become the issue with many schools. These players are young kids who make mistakes and things are bound to happen all over the country. The real issue is there are a few schools out there that have this happen all the time and as stated the offenders get to keep playing with little to...

    Tyrell Terry to Stanford

    I hope at Stanford he took some foreign language classes because he will get a lot of practice playing in Europe the next several years because there is no way he is ready for the NBA

    Izzo

    At this day and age and considering the current landscape in athletics all college coaches regardless of what level have some basic training on these situations and I have no doubt in my mind that Michigan State has extra training that their coaches attend for situations exactly like the one...

    Garza with an extended offseason

    The rebounding issue was a huge problem this last season. Our box out technique was terrible and it seemed many of the guys were flat footed. If you go back and watch the games you will be maddened by the amount of times our guys got their hands on the ball only to have it taken away or were...

    DJ Carton - To Iowa?

    Maybe Iowa is the best place for him. There would be no pressure to play/start. He could take a year off still be with the team to practice and get to know the guys and focus on getting his mental health better. It could be a step in the right direction for him. At the end of the day he...

    Are you personally worried about getting the Coronavirus?

    None of data will be accurate from my standpoint as everyone will not get tested. Many people that have the virus worldwide had underlying conditions that possibly skew the numbers. The data from China is by no means accurate and most likely never will be. The other anomaly that could...

    Christian Kirksey a Packer

    Good for him. Hopefully he can stay healthy. When he is healthy he has been one of the best tackling LBs in the game
