    Okay QB Geniuses...I Did The Work, Now You Defend Your Point

    Also, just recently Joe Burrow was a transfer and did OK. Jacob Eason transferred to Washington and Davis Webb to Cal and both did well enough to get drafted. Cam Newton was a transfer for Auburn who won a Heisman and drafted #1. If you want some local flavor, Cody Sokol transferred out of...

    Okay QB Geniuses...I Did The Work, Now You Defend Your Point

    I'm sure Oklahoma is considered a blue blood, but they had 3 yrs in a row with transfer QBs dominating in year one (Baker, Kyler, Hurts). While I know Iowa isn't anywhere near OU in offense and QB play, and I agree a transfer QB isn't a lock or maybe isn't even overly likely to make a splash, I...

    Okay QB Geniuses...I Did The Work, Now You Defend Your Point

    I would say it's odd to rule out Brissett and Foles as improvements when they are/were both NFL QB's. One winning a Super Bowl. My guess is the QBs they replaced weren't better than that. If you just want to go by W-L record, why are we even discussing a QB change or even competition. I...

    Wake up, little Carver, wake up, it is the official Indiana vs Iowa game thread

    I would think both Murrays could start and there could also always be a Murray on the floor. Keegan doesn't sit a lot anyway unless in foul trouble. Kris could come out earlier than Keegs for PMac and then come back in when Keegs needs a breather. It shouldn't be that difficult for them both...

    4th and less than 1

    I thought I saw on twitter that there were claims the NT hit the ball during or before the snap, but I couldn't tell on any of the replays.

    KF Regrets Last Week's Comments About Deuce Hogan

    I wonder what "The Deuce" thinks about his mom dropping one on Facebook to save face. Wow. As a parent of athletes, I understand the feeling that your child isn't getting the chances you think they should and the feeling that playing time and opportunity aren't always fair. Most parents want...

    Josh O #23

    I really liked what he brought last night and feel he will gradually get more minutes as the year goes on. A big jump early on isn't likley. If nothing else, due to his conditioning. He clearly doesn't have the gas to play long minutes yet, but could get there with gradually increasing time...

    Howe: Hawkeyes May Have QB Controversy on Their Hands

    It still was way too conservative once we got to 14 points. But those 2 drives were fun to watch.

    Howe: Hawkeyes May Have QB Controversy on Their Hands

    Almost all of Padilla's incomletions were a drop or two and throwaways. And most of the passes had players catching on the run and not adjusting or slowing down. Even the Jones drop would have been caught on the run with a huge gain.

    Howe: Hawkeyes May Have QB Controversy on Their Hands

    Very small sample size, but Padilla looked better yesterday than Petras has in any game all year. Mobility, better accuracy, decision making and quicker release. Also shows more confidence and willingness to throw the medium depth passes. I don't know how you start anyone else next...

    Annoying Penn State fans making excuses

    Sounds like you need to not live near so many PSU fans. Must be miserable.

    2 things from yesterday

    Overall agree. Not to be hard on him for making the pick, but on 4th down he should have just dropped it. Way better field position if he doens't catch it. But hard to be upset about an interception.

    Franklin calls out Hawk fans

    Yes, this is basically admitting they teach it against an up tempo offense. Also, Iowa's offense depends on rhythm and flow, so these "injuries" upset the flow of their offense, not letting them build off of a good play. It doesn't have to be a matter of slowing down a fast offense or giving...

    Who needs offense

    I really think the offensive philosophy is to play a fairly vanilla game plan and play into what the defense expects and if it works and gets some points, great. If not, they assume the D and ST will keep the game close and all that vanilla/obvious play calling sets up a big play or two late in...

    Who needs offense

    I was saying this on a few occasions. When we needed to ice the game, when inside the 10, 3rd and 3 or 2. Why not. Best chance for positive yards.

    JW Summer league impressions

    I'm impressed with how much Luka has adjusted to fit the NBA. He obviously couldn't expect any team to adjust what they do to fit his post up game, but he has quickly evolved and showcased the strengths he has that does fit the NBA. He transformed his body to be able to move better so his...
