    The Breakdown: Hawkeyes Pull Off Improbable Comeback Against Northwestern

    Very impressed with the quiet 21 Joe-Weisy put up. This true Freshman makes scoring 20+ points in a big ten game look easy!

    I am sick to death of listening to these one and done players and their parents

    Yes, how dare they use their talents and skills to make truckloads of money, like golfers, tennis players, race car drivers, vocalists or pretty much any other vocation, until we say they can!

    Joe Wieskamp Comparison?

    McDermott. I think DM might have a couple inches on Joe, but both have good feel and handles. Both are underrated athletes. Joe will get better as a shooter. I don’t expect a J Bo level 3 point shooting Freshman year but he will contribute in a lot of ways.

    Was at the Iowa City West- Muscatine game tonight

    Watched it online and agree with your take. Joe W didn’t have just one guy in his face though. He was going 1 on 3 often. His shot wasn’t falling so he went to the basket and wasn’t afraid of contact. Not sure how his game translates to the big 10? He’s maybe not a pure shooter but he has...

    Hawkeyes Come Together in Much-Needed Win

    Guard play: Moss had success early which improved his energy on both ends....the Badgers didn’t have quickness at guard to really harass J. Bo much. This is not going to be the norm going forward (opposition having slower guards). I do think that our guys played harder and closed out better on...

    Future Of The Program

    Some of you need to stick with wrestling. It’s guard play. J-Bo is not willing to play defense. Scared, overmatched-I’m not sure why. Brady E. is too slow, Moss isn’t a great defender and MD is 6’7” so trying to stay with quick guys will be challenging. Cook doesn’t have consistent effort but...

    News flash! Shocking!

    the NY Giants did not hire Kirk Ferentz! Probably never even interviewed him! How could this be? Now waiting for the rub. Be prepared for a salary boost as the young guys keep being hired for more than the old man of the league makes. KF is nothing if not indignant about his contract. Remember...

    Kirk Ferentz: Living Legend

    Kirk has a much better agent. Probably the biggest difference. His name being floated for the NY Giants job is proof. If the Giants take a shot at a 64 year old anti analytics guy, who doesn’t really get involved in play calling and believes in hard work over talent...it’s not the 80s nfl...

    This Game Will Come Down To Linebacker Play.

    Niemann really showed something when he replaced JJ. I wish for this game that the coaches would flip Niemann and Bower. Bower is going to be rolled by UWs OL. Niemann is head and shoulders more athletic and could use his agility to disrupt UWs run game. But i know that it won’t happen and...

    Do we want Barta back?

    First, I hope he kicks cancers a$$. That said, Iowa used to be alphas among b10 administrations. With Bump and Bowlsby, Iowa had a loud voice. Not so much with Barta. I believe that ADs from other institutions are viewed with more esteem. Among our main rivals, MSU and Wisconsin, we don’t...

    Iowa Settles & Pays $6.5 Million For Lawsuits

    The $6.5 million dollar question.

    1.4 million to Jane (I assume Tracey will now get a check instead of a trial)

    Interesting. More interesting? KF having a female boss who doesn't agree to everything he wants! Get your popcorn and enjoy the fireworks! I can see it happening after the external investigation ends in firing Barta. I might do a search for ADs who are women to see what the pool looks like.

    1.4 million to Jane (I assume Tracey will now get a check instead of a trial)

    That certainly doesn't seem worth a trial. I wonder what Meyers lawyers would have said if offered 1.5 million? So now can we question the ADs decision making? I'm sure he is engaging and nice but is he the best leader? Really not considered a powerful voice within the b10. I think KF pretty...

    Jurors hear starkly different portrayals in opening statements of Jane Meyer's case against Iowa

    Let's hope that there is a strategy. Maybe they are fighting the meyer case but settling with Greisbaum? I would hate for everyone to be under a microscope in football season and for this to be brought up during lulls in games

    Barta either way...

    He is such a terrible negotiator and overall manager. He had all the leverage with an aged KF an still gave KF the best buyout in all sports. Now, he cannot negotiate a deal to keep this mess out of the news-just horrible PR for Hawkeye athletics in general, and it might drag into football...

    O'Keefe Returns to Iowa Staff

    Like the move. I hope it is as QB coach and they go younger for the WR position. KO also won't be afraid to speak his mind about game plans and plays to the family Ferentz.

    Biggest hopes with new offensive coaches

    I would like to keep the bubble screen to the WR that CJ was so good at throwing-not an easy throw-it's often an easy 6+ yards

    2 weeks to guess the new coaches

    To me this is much more exciting than recruiting. Time to cast your lot: Ken O'Keefe Charlie Bullen(sp?) Demo Odems Raih Aiken Blazek Jerry Montgomery Philbin Any others ? I'm keeping it within the Hawkeye family after hearing/reading interviews with KF and BF

    Geno Stone Tells HN Why He Chose Hawkeyes

    Geno might have my favorite highlights of any Iowa recruit, maybe ever. He absolutely destroyed any guy he tackled and closed fast. Not so naive to think that this will automatically transfer to b10 football but man I hope that it does. WRs will hate going across the middle

    "We're only Minnesota..."

    KFs real recruiting problems are self inflicted. Guys like B Banks aren't at IA because KF doesn't recruit MS JCs...KF has bought into a narrative that a certain kind of player "fits" the Iowa way. The elephant in the room is that the player who fits now is more often rural and mid western than...
