    Washed up Walkons this week

    So the WUW podcast can be a bit too much “bro this bro this” and telling annoying stories from drinking and playing video games, however they can be very good. I really enjoy the past player interviews. This week they addressed the whole racism thing and it was fascinating to hear from the...

    My recipe for KF moving forward.

    I’m trying to be a solutions oriented person so here is my recipe for getting to a resolution point by point: 1) obviously fire Chris Doyle immediately, he’s extremely toxic. No resignation, just have a brief press conference and announce he’s done. Elevate braithwaite 2) Completely suspend...

    Major unappreciated positive for 2019

    So for the first time since 2015 and then awhile before that, Iowa didn’t have that yearly inexplicable loss to a bad team. They won every game they were favored in and lost the 3 they were underdogs in. I know this doesn’t mean much overall, but on a personal level losing to northwestern and...

    So TJH and Fant

    Iowa is completely helpless in the red zone and on 3rd 8 and beyond. Brian has found no one to replace hock and fant in the red zone, or on crossing or seam routes or even deep. Everyone knew there was no one to replace those guys, but it’s even more dire than I imagined.

    Is a camp Randall visit worth it?

    I live in Florida and try to make it back to Iowa city for the best home game every year. I was going to come home for penn state, but due to some family circumstances, I had to cancel. All of Iowa’s other home games are not overly appealing, so I did some research about heading to Madison...

    Campbell and where was Oliver Martin?

    So two very unrelated topics: 1) So even as an Iowa fan I have to say Matt Campbell is likeable. The guy is calm and collected on the sideline, doesn’t whine, flip out, throw things or berate players or refs. He is well spoken in interviews and seems like a legitimately good dude. Seems to run...

    Guest picker for Gameday in Ames?

    Who possibly could they chose? ISU has no celebrity fans/alums, they have no high profile NFLers or even NBAers. The mayor is now a head coach at Nebraska, so he won’t do it. Every other prominent Iowan is a Hawkeye. I mean they could have Troy davis, rosenfels, or Seneca, but those are all...

    Maurice Washington practicing

    So today is Nebraska day on BTN and I’m reminded of the whole Maurice Washington deal. I hate Nebraska, but this whole thing with Washington is really a sham. He’s playing/practicing while awaiting a court date sept 3rd, according to BTN. All the Nebraska media (as usual) are giving frost and...

    Comcast updates?

    Does anyone know if Comcast has added BTN to their sports package yet? I did the whole HULU thing last year, but don’t know what I’m planning this year, I do know that the first 3 games are on FS1, so I don’t have to worry about them. However MTSU will probably be BTN.

    Rewatched 2018 Nebraska game

    So after rewatching the 2018 Nebraska game I came away a little more cynical about everyone in media and many in the fanbase claiming Nebraska is a 2019 9-10 win team. Adrian Martinez was a legit star in that game, made some incredible plays, made Stanley look like a lumbering old man. However...

    No announcement from TJ yet?

    I know it’s best not to read into this stuff too much, but the deadline is Monday and we haven’t seen any announcement yet. Everyone else has announced throughout the football world has given their little graphic thanking everyone. Is TJH really thinking about returning?

    Why aren’t we going after hoiberg?

    He’s won at a high level in the state, he’s available, and likely would not be cost prohibitive. He connected in the state and Midwest, and already knows all the AAU coaches. He’s young and looking for a job. I don’t see the ISU thing being an issue. It worked for dan gable

    Iowa realistic ceiling this year?

    I know I know, Iowa’s leading scorers are all back, but is that really enough for a NCAA appearance? I don’t think the leasing scorers being back from a 4-14 team is enough even when you add weiskamp and Connor Mac. I really see a .500 team this year, isn’t a logical step 4-14 to 10-10 with the...

    Iowa vs OSU comparison

    In the last two weeks Iowa and Ohio state have played the same two teams: Minnesota and Indiana. Iowa played them both on the road, Ohio state played them both at home. Iowa vs Minnesota? 48-31 Ohio state vs Minnesota? 30-14 Iowa vs Indiana? 48-16 Ohio state vs Indiana? 49-26 Iowa has played...

    Comcast v BTN

    Has anyone heard any updates about what’s going on in the stupid BTN battle with Comcast? Any hopes of it being resolved? I hate dish and don’t want to switch.

    The guy looks like he is on quaaludes on the sidelines. I thought Kirk was catatonic, but lovie makes him look like will musschamp

    Herbstreit was excellent last night!

    I've always liked herbie as an analyst on ESPN and as a color guy. I watch him all the time on gameday and on Saturday night ABC games. He really is about the best... fair minded, insightful and doesn't over do it. This is the first time in a long time I remember him working an Iowa game and...

    Leidner pro prospect? Lol!

    I've been hearing this all year and after seeing him yesterday I was surprised about how bad he was. Missed tons of easy throws and has no mobility. Glad KFz passed on him as a high school senior.

    Can this team get to 6 wins?

    So sitting at 3-2, I can't see where Iowa can get 3 more wins on this schedule. I personally don't care whether they are 5-7 or 6-6, once they are in the toilet, how deeply they are submerged is meaningless. 3-9 is the same as 6-6 to me. I would like to see 6-6 just to get the extra bowl...
