    New Podcast....

    Agree with OP. Kirk is in survival mode now. He knows it. Too many years of staying stagnant led to MSU, Wisky, and now - Minnesota - pass us by

    Is this the quietest it's been before a season?

    Disagree with Ross....ISU is not our Superbowl and should be looked at that way.

    The problem we all have with Iowa State: They beat us

    "Barta has been good for Iowa athletics" Article in Gazette

    What I struggle most with re: Iowa football is that the gap has widened between us and several schools ... Imagine what MSU and Ohio State would do to us? Imagine what Michigan will do to us. We are fortunate to be in the West division. We "should" get 8 wins with this schedule ... Losing to a...

    Free Iowa Hawkeye Football posters

    I think Twostar and Hawknick are either the same person or insiders planted by the football program. Save the rah, rah

    ISU hires new coach (per ESPN)

    I think this is a good hire for ISU. I do. I think he is a good fit on many fronts. Now, can he recruit to ISU will be the big question. He can keep the train rolling for next year at least but will then depend on his recruiting abilities. Agree that if he has any success whatsoever he will be...

    If Ferentz fails... Diaco should be the man

    I like Diaco a lot. UConn was in bad, bad shape when he took over. Let's see what he does with them this season. As much as BB is my first choice, I don't see him leaving Arkansas and the SEC to come to Iowa. If Diaco wins at UConn he would be my guy. I like his attitude. And I like his coaching...

    2016 Recruiting Is Actually Going Worse Than 2014 and 2015?

    This is a staff on its way out the door after this season anyway. Bring in all the Iowa kids you want Kirk. It's sad what this program has become and even sadder how some fans continue to make excuses for Kirk. There are no more excuses. We are the Northwestern of the conference ... Even...

    Ben Skowronek to Decide Today

    It does leave you scratching your head when we lose out on a recruit to Northwestern. Oh how the times have changed.

    Next ISU basketball coach

    It's sort of funny because some ISU fans that work in my area truly think ISU has become this elite basketball program now in just 3 seasons. ISU is still small potatoes among Power 5 schools. Yes, they have had a nice run but ISU will be back to normalcy in a couple of years.

    Barta Believes Ferentz's Longevity Will Speak For Itself In Recruiting

    Oh here we go … someone just itching to tell us the rest of us what it was like “back in the day” when Iowa football was horrible. Well guess what, the University of Chicago was a national powerhouse at one time. My point: Things change; you can’t live in the past … and never settle for...

    Reason for Holes on Roster: Tons of Unnecissary Dead Weight Scholarships

    I think our roster is littered with guys who did not reach their potential or who were simply not good enough to play Big 10 football. Not only have we failed miserably in how we have handled scholarships in the kicking game, we continually try to fit the square peg into the round hole with all...

    Barta Believes Ferentz's Longevity Will Speak For Itself In Recruiting

    Kirk has to be gone after this season ... Iowa fans ... stop freaking buying tickets ... YOU are helping this idiot keep his job as AD ... Stop going to games ...

    This Weeks WATN: Eric Johnson, Interesting Quotes

    I have been saying this for 5 years ... it's a never a good thing to stay in the same job for more than 10 years ... Never ... You become too complacent ... You don't grow ... especially when you just surround yourself with the same people during the majority of that time. This is a staff that...

    TWO more years???

    Again, another "rah rah" post from the Iowa football intern (or whatever your insider job is) ... a "few vocal fans." ... Huh!? You think this is just a few vocal fans making noise about the state of Iowa football? Come out from your Mom's basement ... put away the XBox and recognize that you...

    TWO more years???

    There is absolutely no way Kirk comes back after this season. No way. No how. Fans are, and will continue, turning away in droves ... Nope. In 8 months, when the season is over ... you cut your losses and you go out and get a new coach ... No more excuses for this staff. NONE ... Kirk's time has...
