I've never once gotten the impression that "Franny" is meant to be snarky at all. That's not really how Izzo rolls.

By this logic, Iowa would be no worse off if Willie Lowe was manning King's spot in the lineup. So no, it wouldn't matter at all.

The coaching staff took a gamble on getting speed on the outside (which there is quite a bit of among the underclassmen receivers who are now set to step into bigger roles) at the expense of recruiting the trenches. Not a bad gamble to make when you've got such a great track record of developing...

I think the secondary is in very good hands as is. King and Mabin are the best CB duo in the conference, Taylor very quietly had a great year in his first season as a starter, and I think Brandon Snyder is going to show himself to be something special at FS. He's one of the best HS athletes I've...

I'm guessing that letters for the 2015 season haven't been issued yet. There's no way that King wouldn't have three letters (he's the most obvious example, but there are probably some others as well).

Those two situations aren't even remotely comparable. Desmond is much closer to the prototypical mold for his position than Mitch was for his.

Yeah, Danny's the football editor at the DI. Serious props to him if his source is solid.

Outside of Oklahoma....oh, wait, they got shitcanned, too.

This is the one that comes to mind for me.

They've got an advantage inside with Woody out, but the small lineup has done a nice job of not letting MSU cut into the lead.

Anybody else see a lot of Chris Street in the way Baer plays? Deceptively athletic with a solid shooting stroke and all hustle, all the time.

Seriously, get Baer a scholly. Like yesterday.

How is this any different than any other numerical limit? If the cutoff were 4 games, what about the kid who played in 5?

McCaffrey slept in and only played the fourth quarter. The game started at 9 am PST, for crying out loud.

No way does that happen (moving to safety at Iowa). He's way too valuable to Iowa on the outside, and I firmly believe that Brandon Snyder will step into Lomax's spot and perform very well. I also don't see King moving to safety in the NFL. Previous Iowa corners did that because they were too...

It really depends on what's important to you. If making millions playing football isn't as important to you as staying in school, getting a degree, chasing a national championship and sharing experiences you only have a short window to get, then staying an extra year isn't stupid. If making...

Only two of those guys were worse as seniors, and both had pretty significant mitigating circumstances going against them (injury, new offense/no receivers).

That's true, but using the tickets to schmooze with the corporate types probably helps increase those TV dollars quite a bit.

Getting paid to play isn't necessarily the most important thing for everyone. It's funny how so many people chastise the pros for wanting more money, saying they'd play for nothing. But then when someone might actually decide to play just because they love it, they're being stupid.

I've been saying for awhile now that I won't be surprised at all if he comes back. School is very important to him and his mother, and now there may be a bit of unfinished business in the mix, too.
