    Looks like people turning down interview offers right and left...

    or stating they are not interested in the job to end speculation. And though Dayton still in the NIT and of course any coach whose season is not yet over is not likely to say anything, Sports Illustrated’s Seth Davis reported Wednesday that Iowa had inquired about Gregory, but he wasn’t...

    2011 Center possibilities...

    Looking through 2011 Center prospects, none have Iowa listed as an interest -- shocking -- but here are some that are uncommitted and showing an interest/openness to travelling to the midwest to play ball (the better midwest teams listed in their schools of interest). Kyle Caudill, 6'11", 260...

    Did anyone else like the flow of the game last night, w/o Tucker?

    And at times they actually played really, well, pretty good defense, another thing that has been seriously lacking. And I want to say kudos to Cole for his lock-down D, I was very impressed! I gotta say, I have been saying that Tucker really should be coming off the bench and not starting...

    BOWL REORGANIZATION

    There are 34 bowl games this year, 34! There are mid-tier 6-6 record teams playing in these games -- yes, mid-tier 6-6 teams playing in bowl games. Has the bowl system almost become irrelevant? My proposition for change to the bowl scene: 1. No bowl to start before Christmas. 2. Number of...

    The Big Ten is not a 3-point shot league!

    I don’t know about anyone else, but I have been really disappointed with the direction our league has taken in the last several years to decade. The Big Ten was once synonymous with smash mouth football and basketball. We haven’t lost this in football, but a large portion of teams have...

    Mid 2001-12 a realistic date by which to expect improvement

    Due to player transfer and injury setbacks, which have resulted in this year having the appearance of year 1 of a rebuilding process, I don't think it is unreasonable to say that we probably won't see things really turning around, i.e., progress, until about this time 2011. Therefore, I think...

    Should Iowa start offering more scholarships than are truly available?

    Seeing as there is talk that we may have another mass exodus of players at the end of this year, should Iowa start offering more scholarships than a currently available? For example, say we currently have 4 scholarship spots open, but we can expect another 2-3 to transfer at the end of the...
