    Gettis?

    I don't know whether the rumor is true or not but any time I hear 'high ankle sprain' I think of the comments from people familiar with the injury that in most cases a clean ankle break is a better injury to have because it tends to heal faster. Man, after a ACL or actual broken leg/arm I...

    Who gets their way in alignment: Wisconsin or Iowa?

    Scott Dochterman tweeted in reply to Jon's tweet on this this morning with something to the effect that the first step will be to pair teams so: Michigan-Michigan State Penn State - Ohio State Minnesota - Wisconsin Iowa - Nebraska Illinois - Northwestern Indiana - Purdue So the paired...

    VIDEO: Melvin Gordon Soph & Junior Highlights

    His height, how he kind of runs upright and his gate remind me a lot of Sedrick Shaw.

    Injuries

    Mike Klinkenborg played several games with a broken hand a few years ago. I distinctly remember the club of a hand/arm he had. iahawk72

    Aaron Greving

    I can think of a couple of players... There was promising Tony Collins from Davenport Assumption who was really doing great things at WR but quit football to go to school. It seems to me that a girlfriend was involved in that decision as well. Matt Neubauer was a DL from Iowa Falls that...

    Tom Osborne Quote on Iowa-Nebraska game..

    With a 9 game B10 schedule is it possible that each Big Ten school could 'protect' 3 rivalry games thereby creating within 2 divisions 3 rivalry pods if you will. Rivalry Pod #1: Michigan Ohio State Michigan State Penn State Rivalry Pod#2: Illinois Purdue Indiana Northwestern...

    3rd Commit: QB Jacob Rudoch?

    Based on the video in the ESPN link, he and James Vandenberg share at least one thing in common: They have both thrown touchdown passes in the Horseshoe. I like this get. iahawk72

    The Shadow on conference expansion

    If the dollar figures that have been thrown around for potential revenue for each member school were a ND or Texas or GT to join the Big Ten to join the Big 10 I think it is reasonable to expect that the additional travel expenses for the minor sports would more than be offset by the additional...

    No More Guards in this Recruiting Class

    I guess the way I see it I want this rebuilding project to be done the RIGHT way not the necessarily the fastest way. I have said that this turnaround will be done in large measure by improving the recruiting and overall talent level in the program and I think that Fran and this staff will be...

    Concerned about Fuller

    One other thing about the Siena recruit Basabe who is reportedly still in play as a possible release by Siena. Here is his bio from scout's database: Scout.com: Melsahn Basabe Profile Except for the weight, I suspect that Basabe would be a good slot filler if Fuller chooses to leave...

    Concerned about Fuller

    I think that Coach McCaffery's approach is the right one with not only the incoming recruits but also the current players. I read somewhere that he will not only be visiting all of the incoming recruits in person to sell himself and his program but he will be doing the same with the parents of...

    Kirk Speraw would be a great assistant hire

    He is a Hawk having played under Lute Olson. He has extensive experience as a head coach in Division I basketball. He is a native Iowan. And he is out of work after being fired from Central Florida at the end of this season. He lasted as head coach at CF for 17 years and took them to 4...

    Steve Lavin Question

    Maybe I am slow on the uptake and can't sense sarcasm/humor, but please tell me that all of the references from Iowa fans of Steve Lavin as coach are a big, coordinated joke. Of all of the possibilities out there is this guy someone who people think is a) a good coach, b) is the best option...

    Miller: Winnowing The List

    How about a 2 for 1 deal. Barbee brings Forbes in as his lead recruiter. Forbes lobbies for the position to be better situated if Barbee has success and moves at a bigger offer down the road. I too am intrigued with Forbes (see Buzz Williams) but the other scenario that intrigues me is...

    Iowa's Game against Ball State will be a Throwback Game

    Technically yes. However it sounds like the helmets will be more of a soft gold yellow, gray facemask and no other markings (no numbers on the side, no black strip, etc.) I am kind of bummed about the lack of numbers on the side. That would have been cool. iahawk72
