I definitely think Gronk deserves Honorable Mention. I was talking to my son saying how I wished there was some way we could keep him for one more season. I really think he was hitting his stride. You get a full year of a healthy Gronk with a good understanding of the Lester offensive schemes, I...

Agreed. Did what was asked of him. And did it with very little prep. If I recall correctly, Lester said he was a scout squad linebacker, but would stay late to learn Lester's offense. Team player. Best wishes to Jackson.

Agreed, I don't think Riola was that much better that he impacts the game that much. Phil normally schemes very well against Nebby. IF anything both Riola and Lateef bring different skill sets. Riola would have likely been sacked several times where Lateef extended a few plays with his feet...

They spoke to Brands at intermission. And he summed it up pretty well. Beyond Caliendo and possibly Ayala, offense is lacking for the most part. I will actually throw Kennedy in there too. He just got caught, but at least was attempting shots. Otherwise, it seemed most of our wrestlers did not...

Mark Stoops out at Kentucky....

Fry is playing chess while we are all playing checkers. Well played, my friend.

KF is calling a news conference today to address these rumors. He was asked by reporters during his weekly press conference......look what you have done, Fry!!! And yes, I am kidding. LOL.

Compton from Barstool is good friends with Kittle, but he fired the first shot and sent it to him right before the game. So, ol George was just sending a shot back. I hope George is right about us running it down their throats.

Blue Collar DeJean. And who knows, how we develop, he could end up being Cooper DeJean 2.0. I like the kid. Around the ball all the time.

I think Phil asks a lot of his safeties, however, in the past, we have always had someone that still was fundamental with tackling. Nwampa always seemed to be that second tackler that would fly in and throw a shoulder in. It always made me nervous it would come down to him to making a tackle or...

Of course. I'm sure his mom made her demands. Bassett seems to have a bit of the Proctor Syndrome. I also know they were leveraging his brother committing to the same program.

My son goes to SEP. We are transplants so not originally from here. He was a big Nwampa guy at first until I pointed out how he does not wrap and like you mentioned often misses or knocks a would be tackler out. It's maddening how he just flies around throwing his shoulder into ball carriers...

I think they were saying Johnson leads the league and is pretty high up in yards after contact. So hopefully we wrap up. Very impressed with his skillset. Hoping Parker challenges the defense and we show out. Nebby has had this game circled. Let's make it 10 out of 11.

Eh more of sentimental comment. My hope it's someone that truly understands and is committed to continuing the culture. We shall see. Ideally, I still hope this is all speculation and KF sees it through 2027. But the more it's talked about, I fear where there's smoke there's fire. Making mention...

I would love to see LaVar get it and retain Lester and the rest of the staff. Obviously, Phil likely rides off with KF. Maybe Fitz takes a DC job to get back into coaching? Or Wallace slides into the DC spot. I would think that the best scenario to keep the culture here.

Did I miss something? I thought Bassett was destined for Nebby? I see he signed with VaTech?

Yeah, not really sure what he did, but there seems to be some friction almost between Bert and Iowa. His personality seemed have some arrogance and almost disdain toward Iowa. Maybe that's just his personality, but I don't see him as a good fit honestly. Yet, from what I am hearing, he has a...

Mark Stoops and he brings his brother along? Or Bobby Stoops and Mark and him come home? A rumor also was going around that Fitz has residence in North Liberty or IC area? Anyone confirm?

Their 2026 class is showing some promise in recruiting. Addressing needs. A quarterback, couple linebackers, couple defensive backs and some offensive linemen. Granted with the NIL and portal that can change tomorrow. However, he would be leaving the program in a much better situation than...

I think when you speak to KF's legacy/culture, he would want very badly for a continuation what he has worked so hard to build and what Hawkeye football is known for. I'm sure there has been conversations with Beth and him about this and a possible successor. The question I wonder about has KF...
