    B1G Expansion East?!?

    Why again? I know the standard response is TV $ but seriously, I could not tell you one good thing about Maryland football or much less Rutgers football. I think this expansion stuff has just gone too far. Expand to 12 with Nebraska, Notre Dame or even Misery made sense, but this chapter is...

    Brian Ferentz retweet...

    I hope Brian spends his time recruiting superior talent for years to come. We can revel on win today and be 2-0 in B1G but we still need better players. In the meantime, kudos to him and the rest of the staff for losing today's game less than MSU ( because that is how both staffs were calling it!)

    Sooo, how much did Michigan State beat Central Michigan again?

    Or perhaps our hands team inability to jump on an inside kick that rolls right past us...

    Sorry Kirk and Vandenberg haters....

    He was checking down so quickly, even on 3rd and long plays when we picked up the blitz perfectly. And when he has pressure he poses no risk to improvise and make a play on his own...

    Greg Castillo

    I agree. I have been as critical of him as anyone. Pick against Minny was because they were throwing at him or Donatello EVERY play! He was in good position this week and even better play on tip, but he deserves some credit. We held them to 16 points thru 2 OT's!

    Sorry Kirk and Vandenberg haters....

    They are a former top 15 team for a reason, MSU is just not that good...and Iowa deserved to win today because we took care of ball outside of a JVB INT that was MSU's TD.

    Sorry Kirk and Vandenberg haters....

    "I told you so" or not, JVB has regressed as a QB, his footwork, touch, field vision is disappointing for a 5 th year senior. Kudos for not turning the ball over and keeping Iowa in the game, but he was far from the reason why we won. Great work to Meyer and our D!

    Soldier Field- Iowa Sideline?

    I am investigating tickets for Soldier Field on 9/1. Any idea which sideline Iowa is on? Plenty of tickets available, but looking to get something low on Iowa sideline. Thanks...

    honest question

    He should probably wait a few more weeks to make sure he addresses the appropriate HR protocol, you know much like the DC hire....

    PSU- Had our chances...too many missed FT's late

    Oglesby misses the front end of a 1 and 1, then goes 1/2 later, Basabe misses both with 50 seconds left...then their 35% FT post player makes both! Had our chances, loved our fight, but way too many mistakes to win on the road even against a bad PSU team.

    Why would anyone play a defense other than the 1-3-1 against us

    Even if Alford didn't have an answer, he'd have a handful excuses as to why it was not his fault... ...I've turned the page on that chapter!

    Do I go to Indianapolis?

    If we get paired up against Northwestern, I will pass on the B1G tournament this year. This is awful...

    For all the basketball these youngsters play growing up...

    ...it looks like the first time they've ever seen a trapping 1-3-1 zone. Awful game-planning in my opinion.

    What's it going to take to dance?

    What's it going to take? Better players. Our non conference slate will come back to haunt us, along with the uncompetitive losses vs. OSU, MSU, Creighton. We are not competing at an NCAA level consistent enough. Too bad, but we're moving in the right direction. Let's not get ahead of...

    Fran told to cool it

    Slow media day if they keep bringing up this chair incident. Fran was brought here to change the culture of the program. I am totally supportive of his approach and if it means a chair slam or a T every once in awhile, then I am all for it. Media- move on to some other more storyline more...

    Woodbury targeted for fouls?

    Looks like the opposing coach was making a complete a#$ of himself, pleading for a call every time down court. I am not a big fan of the IHSAA, but I kind of like the rule that requires coaches to sit down- sure keeps coaches more level-headed and in turn keeps teams a little more calm!

    why do we have sokol?

    After 2012, Ruddock is our only scholarship QB. We need some depth, we would be an INJ away from a complete nuclear winter on this web-site without 2 legit QB's. It is kind of like the cupboard being bare at DL right now, we better get some talent there quickly.

    Naysayers....have you changed your tune?

    Let's temper the enthusiasm. The program has a LONG ways to go, but I like Fran as the leader and he will methodically build Iowa Basketball back to where it should have been all along. We'll lose a few that we shouldn't here during 2012 and I hope we can replicate yesterday and win a few that...

    Brommer Experiment over?

    Outside of major foul trouble, let's hope we don't have to rely upon him anymore.

    the technical foul

    Basabe screwed up, he'll learn from the mistake, thankfully with a W in his pocket. Wisky does not go 59-1 at home vs. unranked opponents without some "help" along the way.
