As I thought, basically Lebron is the only basketball player on the planet that even compares to CC's draw. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/wnba/2025/05/06/caitlin-clark-indiana-fever-espn-tv-ratings-preseason/83478304007/

For the sake of argument, let's say that Gronowski's game translates and he is the playmaker at QB that he was at SDSU. Accurate throws, moves in the pocket, makes plays with his feet as needed. I think it is fair to say that the skill positions players are good, but not great. I don't see...

Right? What talented PG wouldn't want to play in a free flowing system where you have ample opportunities for shots and assists?

Personally, I think the talent pool is similar between incoming and outgoing. The variable that tips things in favor of the current squad is Stirtz. That dude is legit at a position that Fran could almost never get right.

When guys are posting regularly on this site, the dialogue is generally intelligent and respectful.

While I think we could go to battle with what we have, it does feel like we are a back up PG and rotational Big short.

Last I heard Jon was unable to meet the overvalued price that the website owner wanted. That was a few months back. Rob signed off for good around that time as well. Since then, no real news. I just cannot imagine this site is worth much given the limited traffic and a dying business model...

The Clark effect is beyond comprehension. If you had posted on this board 4 years ago that a exhibition WNBA game would sell 15k tickets, people would drive hundreds of miles to attend, and pay $700 a ticket, we would have laughed you out of the building. How many other players on the planet...

Its not up to the kids to understand this concept, but the old saying that Pigs get Fat, Hogs get Slaughtered, applies here. These kids absolutely deserve to make money for a product that they are an integral part, but if the pendulum swings too far and the sport no longer is legitimate, it...

Somewhat serious question. Could Lebron James, who has never played a minute of college basketball, retire from the NCAA, enroll at Akron to get his degree, and play for the (I think it is Zips?)? How long is it before washed out NBA guys who did not exhaust eligibility crawl back to college...

As the lack of guardrails festers, inequities like this will continue to degrade college sports to the point where fans walk away. I don't blame the coach. He is following what few rules remain in place and is competing aggressively. But, at some point, college athletics is just going to be a...

Gatens would have been the natural hold over and it would have happened immediately to try and claw back any of the existing players that had put into the portal. When he wasn't named an assistant right away, I could see the writing on the wall there. McCollum doesn't have much of a...

By all accounts, Fitz had no knowledge at all about the hazing. He was terminated under the captain of the ship doctrine, and frankly, it was probably the right thing to do. The University had to take action, but again, there is no evidence he had any knowledge as to what some of his sicker...

On the one hand, I hate Campbell because he is a good coach who has elevated one of our rivals and little brother in the state. On the other hand, stealing him away from ISU would strengthen us and weaken them and add juice to the rivalry. So, I guess I am in. That said, can't see it ever...

Fitz would not be at the top of my list, but he would be on my list.

I honestly did not see a lot of regression, but I could also clearly see that he was injured. IMHO, Sanford was pretty consistent in his career at Iowa in that he was not a consistent shooter. He was streaky. Was it his sophomore year where he started out like 2 for 25 from 3? When he is on...

I don't agree that Iowa is a tough place to win. We have had 40 years of mostly winning football under Coach Fry and KF. We have a great stadium, fan support, donor support, resources, a top conference and facilities. For most of that time we have owned our relatively low populous state...

Plus, if we have four top tier DEs, we can move someone inside on 3rd and long type scenarios and give the DTs some plays off. Get your best guys on the field anyway you can. We haven't had a truly dominant DL since Eppy left for the NFL. Looking forward to seeing his little brother...

Depends if the House settlement gets finalized. The plan is for direct payments from the schools, with heavier scrutiny over collectives to make sure that money outside the schools is true NIL and not pay for play. I question whether the settlement will hold up upon appeal and/or be challenged...
