    So many walkons

    its a talent gap. Last year Iowa got some luck and it all came together. The talent gap is evident now. When you have 2 OL, 1 WR, LB, Safety as walking turned starters it is just your recruiting is bad and it is catching up with you. Hey Calloway, you will probably start next year if you...

    Thanks KF, I now have hfED

    Thank you Kirk. Due to the boring style of football the past 3 years I now have a severe case of Hawkeye Football Enthusiasm Dysfunction. Just 4 years ago at the age of 25 I would schedule my saturdays around Hawkeye football games. I would intensely watch, living and dying with each play...

    What Should have been

    Watching ISU and Tennessee advance to the Sweet 16 just makes me think of what could've/should've been for the hawks. They should have beaten both of those teams and had the talent to do what both those teams have done. Good for those teams, but sucks for Iowa.

    4 or 5 seed in BTT

    If Iowa wins and Nebby loses Iowa gets the 4 seed and a bye and gets to play the winner of Nebby and 12 seed. If Iowa and Nebby both win Iowa gets the 5 seed and plays the 12 seed then Nebby. I know they can get the 6th seed if they lose and both Nebby and OSU win, but lets say Iowa wins...

    Simply the wrong time of year for this

    You can lose 4 in a row and be a top 15 team. Ask Wisconsin or Iowa State. You can do it while looking bad to teams you shouldn't lose too. But you can't do it at the end of February and March. I do not know what happened to this team in the last 2 weeks, but giving up 90+ to two teams...

    Beneventi looking around

    Per Scout. He's open to other schools due to new developments. Would that be the Boyle offer? I don't have insider access, anyone have the scoop? Scout.com: Beneventi Looking Around Gotta love those early commits.

    Hard to feel confident

    heading into the rest of the season. This year started with the likelihood of making the dance. I still think Iowa will, but with the chance of winning the BT just 2 games ago makes this all the harder. Went from a 3 seed to maybe a 7 or 8. Maybe. This team has no confidence, but why...

    Paying college athletes

    Sorry to start a new thread but I want to discuss a new idea. I hate the idea of paying athletes to come to school. It solves nothing. Better players will still get paid under the table more than they should be getting paid etc. Also, do we pay football players the same as the diving team...

    Packers-Iowa Pipeline

    Optimism for next year

    I don't have as much as most did prior to this game, and this one cemented my feelings. Iowa did very well this year due to the defense. Next year they lose 3 stud LBs. They will be very hard to replace. They have a stud in King, but the safeties were horrible today, and I have been...

    Visitors

    Any idea if we will have any recruits/commits for officials this weekend? Still some big needs for the hawkeyes. Also heard we may have a committed 4* player visiting but I have no idea who. Any ideas?

    Are there really no better safeties in this program.

    As I watch Miller and Lowdermilk just do poorly week in and week out I just wonder where all this talent that they recruit each and every year is at at the safety position: Just looking back at the last 4 recruiting classes for guys listed as Safeties (Scout): 2013: Solomon Warfield Malik...

    LeShun Daniels

    I just don't get why KF burned his shirt. I am fine if they thought he was going to be the #2 or #3 back, but he didn't get a single carry against Minny. I just wonder if the 12 carries he has throughout this year will be that beneficial to him in the future? Or would having an extra year of...

    Can LeShun Daniels redshirt?

    JUST KIDDING, JUST KIDDING. But I'm just curious why they gave him 6 touches against MS not to use him this game. I hope he doesn't sit there and waste a year of eligibility for 6 touches. Just my thoughts. Maybe he gets more reps as he gets more seasoned and into the B1G season. Side...

    Ferentz's time

    I have not posted in a few months just trying to avoid the negativity that surrounds Iowa football and the summer boredom. The reason for this post is that I have been a loyal Ferentz supporter, perhaps blindly at times, since forever. I still think he's a good coach and a great person. I...
