    Aaron White's season...

    Aaron reminds me a lot of Chris Street in terms of the energy and basketball instincts he brings when he is on the court. Aaron plays with much of the same enthusiasm and the body types are fairly similar. If Aaron can bulk up in the same manner #40 was able to, I think he has the potential...

    Mr. Davis's return: exorcising of the demons

    Today was long overdue. I hope all of the Ferentz bashers took notice today.

    DJK to put Hawkeye Helmet on one last time

    It will be interesting to see how the football program handles DJK in future media guides. You obviously don't take him out of the record books, but when he makes an NFL roster, will he have his photo in the "Hawkeyes in the NFL" section of the media guide? Given Iowa's history of promoting...

    Women's basketball- Should the Rim be lowered?

    I was referring to both men and women's basketball (I watch more women's games), but probably should not have used two men's bb examples. My point was that we don't lower rims - we need coaches that are willing to teach kids how to shoot the ball.

    Women's basketball- Should the Rim be lowered?

    I don't think you need to lower the rim. However, I'd be in favor of getting rid of the three-point shot. I actually think scoring would increase if it went away. Right now, too many offense's revolve around the three-point line and there are too many poor shooters jacking up three's. The...

    How's that for all....

    Delusional, maybe, but I'm going to bed a happy camper! Paul Rhoads has been asleep for two hours now.

    Disappointing: Time for Changes

    I'm as disappointed as everyone else here, but all of you are absolutely insane. Remember, we were probably five plays from having this exact same record last year. I have said this before: we are fortunate to have Kirk Ferentz. Losing him would be a HUGE loss. Continuity is what has made us...

    Iowa v OSU Game Thread

    Hoping I'm proved wrong - but we'll get into FG range and miss a chip shot. This whole season has been about ineptitude of our Special Teams.

    KF Sarcasm

    As I recall, we used to have a basketball coach that used to blame everyone BUT himself when things weren't going well. I'll take Kirk's approach over the other way.

    My take on Ferentz

    It has been interesting reading these posts. I, also, was extremely disappointed yesterday. Disappointed enough that I could not bring myself to watch anymore football the rest of the day. But, I have to guess that a lot of you posting today were also probably thrilled when Tom Davis was let...

    The Perfect Uniform

    The perfect uniforms are the ones we currently wear. Period. I do not understand everyone's infatuation with all black uniforms or single-color uniforms. They are ALL awful. Remember, we tried this 15 years ago and had feathers on our shoulders. Don't let Nike screw around with tradition.

    Throwback Uniforms were Awesome

    I loved the throwbacks, but I don't want us to change too much and I sure don't want Nike to shove their awful pro combat designs down our throat. I looked at all of the designs and they are all hideous. We have one of the most recognizable uniforms in college football and let's keep it that...

    Who's the best HS athlete you've seen in person?

    My Dad still says Treye Jackson was the best high school football player he has ever seen. I'd probably go with Tim Dwight.

    Best Game who attended?

    November 7th, 1981 - Iowa 33, Purdue 7. My first Hawkeye football game and a surprise birthday present from my Dad. I can still remember how pumped I was when he told me we were going. Pretty exciting stuff for a 5th-grader.

    Future HAWK needs your prayers!

    I, like others on here, know exactly what you are going through. We had 19 days of touch-and-go and NICU doctors telling us our son was the sickest baby in the wing. But, thanks to great doctors, unbelievable nurses and prayer, my son will celebrate his fifth birthday in September. Your son is...
