    Luke Brewer

    No problem, let's make it relevant to BB. As a freshman, here are Brewer's stats for Norwalk's varsity team (2023-2024): As we can see, an incredible FT shooter (100%, has to be some sort of record), and his assist/TO ratio is infinity. If the football thing doesn't work out, we can make...

    Iowa's 2-pt conversion woes.

    Did he mention distribution of type of plays called across this 4/21 stretch? How many runs vs. passes? Passes in the pocket vs. outside?

    Glorious morning

    It is a lot easier these days...everyone posts their powerpoint slides, most record their lectures. There are students who never show up and are still successful (especially if they come to office hours to ask questions). But, it takes a lot more self-discipline to make yourself learn OUTSIDE of...

    Glorious morning

    I teach in a department that gets lots of athletes, including football players. I think they have some sort of "code of conduct" that mandates class attendance, because my athletes pretty much always show up (much higher attendance rate than non-athletes). The majors within our department are...

    Hawkeyes score record 119 points on Molly Davis day

    But you knew Gabbie would go on a stretch (usually late in the season) where she couldn't miss for a week or two. That will never happen to Kylie. On the plus side, she can do some damage as a cutter and finisher around the rim that Marshal never could. Feuerbach had a few wide-open, brutal...

    Hawkeyes score record 119 points on Molly Davis day

    Attended, it was awesome, the crowd really showered Molly with love when she got recognized during a timeout in the 1st quarter. You could tell it meant a lot to her, and it was cool to see her current team come to the realization that they were being coached by a Hawkeye legend! (I am using...

    Was It Just Me? Anybody Else Notice?

    I wish we could have kept Dix, but I think losing Freeman was addition by subtraction.

    KF retiring?

    Over KF's entire tenure, average wins per season (2020 wins are prorated): OSU --> 10.9 Wisc --> 8.9 Mich --> 8.5 PSU --> 8.4 Iowa --> 7.9 MSU --> 7.3 Over the last 10 years: OSU --> 11.9 Mich --> 9.8 PSU --> 9.4 Iowa --> 9.2 Wis --> 8.6 MSU --> 6.7 Best 3-year stretch over the last 10: Mich...

    Latest weather forecast

    ...if the game goes in the right direction. Sitting through a stinker in cold, wet conditions is one of the circles of Hell, I am pretty sure.

    Who’s defense MVP? So far

    Not MVP, but we have gotten way more than expected out of the DT platoon of Pace/Hawthorne. That position eating blocks is absolutely critical for the success of the D, and those 2 portal pickups have been great. And Hawthorne has 2 more years left!

    Who’s defense MVP? So far

    I don't think anyone has even mentioned Entringer, who has also been nails. 4th down stop vs. IU 3rd and goal stop vs. PSU

    Is Oregon Going To Take Iowa Seriously?

    I will give you a counterpoint. I played football in the old IIAC, and we played Upper Iowa U one year in some dicey weather (upper 20s, windy, light snow). A large proportion of their players, and almost all of their skill position players, were from Florida, Texas, California, Hawaii, or...

    KF retiring?

    Follow the Bluder model...after the season (preferably an AMAZING season), set someone on your staff up as the heir apparent, and ride off into the sunset. We just need to take care of the "amazing season" part, and the rest will write itself.

    KF retiring?

    My guess is the OP heard some scuttlebutt, and he just popped up to see if anyone else caught wind of it. Nothing the guy (or gal) should get crucified for, that is what message boards are for.

    Jenica Lewis has named her top five colleges.

    For whatever reason, Lewis has never seemed that into Iowa...maybe she just wants to leave the state, which I totally get. I would be much more excited about Bjorn and her dunks...hopefully that one comes through!

    Jenica Lewis has named her top five colleges.

    I should clarify...Milkey indicated ND got a big recruiting commitment. The commitment being Lewis was speculation, I guess.

    Jenica Lewis has named her top five colleges.

    My wife follows Skim Milkey on twitter, and they are pretty much 100% accurate on recruiting predictions. Just today, they predicted Lewis to ND.

    4-star QB decommits from Boise State after Iowa football visit

    If we had to stack them up side by side, Phil > Norm, right? It is kind of like a HF vs. KF comparison, they are both great, hard to pick. But gun to my head, I think HF > KF and Phil > Norm.

    4-star QB decommits from Boise State after Iowa football visit

    No idea if Hecklinski is the real deal, but regarding QB height, here is the distribution of heights for the NCAA QB among the top 50 in QBR: The most common QB heights are 6'2" - 6'3"...you are much more likely to find a successful QB who is under 6'2" (18 instances among the top 50) than you...
