    "IF" this is indeed Kirk's swan song, who do you want?

    I want Phil Parker. Even if he is only the coach for 5 years. He's earned it. If not him, then LeVar Woods. Then give Tim Lester 1 more year at OC to see if he can get the offense finally figured out.

    Write it down...

    As long as we are making pie in the sky speculations, what would it take to lure Bobby Stoops out of retirement?

    Any word on Chit Chat?

    Yeah, I know the basketball dropped on Chit Chat's face after she fell, but the fact that she had to be carried off the floor strongly suggests its something in the leg/knee/ankle/foot

    Any word on Chit Chat?

    Yeah, it looked bad. Chit Chat laid on floor for what seemed like forever. First she tried to walk off, but then ended up being carried off the floor. Maybe they were being overly cautious, I don't know. She was not screaming in pain, nor was she grabbing at any specific body part, but...

    Big game tonight vs. #7 Baylor

    I am going to be honest. This was an ugly game. The type of physical game you typically see in the WNBA that has turned off so many fans. And of course, 2 key players for Iowa ended up getting hurt and had to leave the game. Stuelke's injury was not so serious and she eventually returned...

    Starting To Also Think It’s Time

    Iowa has one other 7-5 season since 2014. Iowa went 7-5 in 2017 and then won the Pinstripe bowl to finish 8-5

    So... what Bowl Game is most likely

    If Iowa finishes 8-4, my guess is the Reliaquest (Tampa) bowl. If Iowa finishes 7-5, I am gonna guess the Las Vegas Bowl. Other Big Ten options are Citrus, Music City, Rate(Phoenix), Pinstripe, and the Game Above Sports (Detroit) Bowls.

    USC Loss

    Over the years I have been impressed with BTN football broadcasts given its 3rd tier status. But that Iowa-USC broadcast has to be the lowest quality of broadcast I have ever seen by the BTN. Especially disappointing if you consider that was probably BTN's biggest game of the year.

    Has There Ever Been A More Epic Collapse...

    Maybe not as big a collapse, but I was trying to think what team was as snakebit as Penn St this year so far: Lost in 2OT to Oregon Lost by 5 @UCLA Lost by 1 to NW Lost by 1 @iowa Lost to Ohio St Lost by 3 to Indiana One team that comes to mind is 2013 NW. NW was ranked #16, then went on a...

    Drake game

    It will work itself out. As the competition improves, it will start to become more obvious who needs to be playing. I could see Fuererbach's minutes being diminished as the season progresses. Right now Kylie's experience is her main advantage she has over the talented group of young...

    McCollum or Devries?

    Yes, Niko Medved, who coached at Drake for 1 year before Devries started, then left for Col St, then was hired by Minnesota this last off-season So not only did the Big Ten hire the last 3 Drake coaches, they were all hired by their Big Ten teams in the exact same year.

    UCLA to move from Rose Bowl to Sofi

    I think the Clippers have their own place now, a new arena built right next to Sofi. I think the Lakers still share with the NHL hockey team

    McCollum or Devries?

    Yes, the last 3 coaches at Drake are now all head coaches in the Big Ten. What an amazing run.

    Glorious morning

    My main concern is that playing the previous whole game in 40-degree rain can have a draining effect on the body. Throw in a long trip the west coast. Afraid Iowa might not have the energy it takes to play a full game and might let up in the 2nd half. That kind of effort won't be good enough...

    Tough Loss

    But in this alternate scenerio, would Iowa still go for the TD on 4th and goal? In theory the game would be tied 13-13 at that point. Kirk would probably run the clock and kick the FG.

    UCLA to move from Rose Bowl to Sofi

    I wonder if the Rose Bowl folks could tear down the old stadium and build a new NFL style stadium in its place. Maybe get the Chargers to move in.

    UCLA to move from Rose Bowl to Sofi

    It was really bad timing for UCLA. They essentially signed a new 30-year lease in 2014, 2 years before the Rams announced they were leaving St Louis to build the grand new palace in Los Angeles that became known as Sofi Stadium. Although the cost to break the lease sounds expensive, if they...

    UCLA to move from Rose Bowl to Sofi

    https://247sports.com/college/ucla/article/ucla-football-move-from-rose-bowl-sofi-stadium-260786872/ Sounds like it is close to a done deal. UCLA will move its hime football games from the Rose Bowl to Sofi, maybe as early as 2026. This will cost UCLA $60M to $80M to break its lease, which...

    Tough Loss

    That's a great memory you got. I have to admit I had forgotten how close Iowa was another 10-win season and division title in 2018
