    They call me . . . "Mr. Hype"

    How awesome is that 2016 recruiting class turning out to be? Already 2 first round draft picks and a 4th rounder. Possibly another 1st round pick in Aleric. Cedrick needs to have a Carl Davis type of senior year and he could be drafted. Ditto with Nate Stanley. Golston has a good chance to...

    Story: Rising Receiver Christian Fitzpatrick Wants to See Iowa

    3star recruit that is 6’4” and 210. Hmmm, I can’t help but wonder that if he isn’t a speed burner he goes the TE route as his best avenue to the NFL. Get him to coach Doyle. If he is a speed demon... at 6’4” ... we probably have very little chance.

    2023 Omaha Biliew

    My guess is that our only chance is a repeat of Peter Jok’s High School history, where everyone is in on him, but then he suffers an injury. All the Blue bloods back away and we stick with him. Hope he gets some really good coaching between here and there.

    Ourlads

    Anyone else think Brents and Hankins are our Day 1 starters at CB? Back 5 would be Brents , DJ Johnson (cash), Merriweather, Stone and Hankins. There is a lot of athleticism there... maybe more than I can ever remember. Welch, Niemann, Colbert, Doyle and Benson in a real dogfight at LB. wow...

    NFL TOP 99 PLAYERS BY NUMBER

    Scherff is #68. This shows Taylor Decker as the best #68. Does Decker have as many pro Bowls as Scherff?? Another oversight, IMHO.

    10 Nastiest D-Lines in 2019, Hawks Higher than Bama

    We need Lattimore to have the kind of senior year season that Carl Davis And Jaleel Johnson did. Both of those guys had underwhelming careers and then killed it their senior season. You could add Faith Ekakitie in there as well. If we can get some powerful push up the middle on 1st and 2nd...

    Ross Pierschbacher

    I don’t care where Ross got drafted or any of the discussion about where he might have been drafted if he had come to Iowa. I am just pissed because we would have had a better OL with him here than without him. Did it cost us wins? We will never know, but my guess is “yes.”

    Huskers Hit A New Milestone In Their Journey To Sucktown

    “... but where is their Run Game?” OMG. He sights 2017 and 2018. In 2017, Iowa came to Nebraska and after the first play of the 4th quarter, never threw another pass. Nothing but running plays and Nebraska knew it was coming. Still couldn’t stop it as our reserves scored twice and the final...

    TJ and Noah at the draft

    Xerxes hasn’t been paying attention to the narrative out there. Part of the reason the TE is being re-emphasized is the success of offenses like New England (Gronk), KC (Kielce), and even the success of our own George Kittle. This is the year of the TE and DE in the draft.

    How Accurate are These NFL Mock Drafts?

    Part of the reason they are so inaccurate is they can’t really project trades. Last year there were 9 trades in the first round. I have been following a lot of Mock drafts lately and they all need to change because now Seattle has KC’s pick at 29 after the trade the 2 teams just made. Most...

    Ragaini and Tracy emerging at WR

    Weiting, Beyer and Cook will prove to be the best TE production in the B1G. Mark it down. “Yeah, but it won’t be as good as Fant and TJ!” Well, No shit! 2 First round draft picks are incredibly hard to replace at any position by any team, including Alabama and Clemson. Still, we have...

    How much has the B10 West Improved?

    How can PSU be light years ahead of us? 2 years ago they needed to convert on 4 th down as time expired to beat us. Last year in Happy Valley, we are 1st and goal, heading in for the win in the final minutes when NS chooses NOT to call a timeout and we turn the ball over. Most recent game vs...

    Levar Woods--Assistant Coach of the Decade?

    I would lean more towards Coach Doyle as Assistant Coach of the Decade. Hard to argue against Phil, except maybe he is a coordinator, and might be too high in the heirarchy to be called an assistant.(?)

    Build your best O from KF Era

    Yeah, Stanley would only overthrow them by 5 yards instead of 10. I kid, I kid.

    Spring Ball Storylines

    If we had a RB with the vision to plant his foot in the ground and hit the cutback lanes that were there, last year’s OLine May have looked much better, statistically speaking. One thing I did notice last year on stretch plays is that as the OL was pulling down the line, they were a step or 2...

    Build your best O from KF Era

    I will go with award winners. OT: Gallery and Scherff. Did they both win the Outland? If not, they were finalists. OG: Steinbach And Yanda C: who was closer to winning the Rimmington? Nelson? Daniels? Blythe? My guess is Nelson. Daniels had more athletic ability and apparently not very...
