Iowa's high football revenues are often cited as a reason that the program should be better.....now, of course Texas is #1 in revenues and they seem to be struggling lately, so the correlation can be there or not. But seriously, with a big chunk of that cash being invested in the new football...

Brady Hoke's hold on the Wolverine football job just got more tenuous...in fact, I think this means he is 100% gone. Brandon was an impediment to Michigan hiring Harbaugh.....could that happen now? It will be interesting times in Ann Arbor the next two months.

schools with good QB situations....today in the PC article he said QBing in the league was pretty bad....and said that only 7 schools were set, including Iowa. I am guessing he has the following on the good list: PSU Iowa Neb Md MSU OSU IU Does Iowa belong in that group? I...

Samir Sehic committed to Vandy today, joining other Iowa recruits, Baptiste, and Toye...as Stallings wraps up a good recruiting season that could have been Iowa's. Too bad. We are left hoping for one of our last couple of targets...c'mon Ed Morrow, and Anunoby....or Illikanen....we need two of...

in their final show of the bus tour Dinardo,Griffin, Long and Lehman had final summer camp observations: Dinardo and Griffin agreed that Iowa now has the best football facilities in the league...very impressed with the way the whole complex is laid out now. Should help KF recruit well to the...

I was hoping that Kyle would be the second big man in 2015-17 along with Woody, but not happening now. So, do we rush out and look for an extra big man, like Big Ike, and have him redshirt next year or look for immediate help for next year or bank it and use it in the 2015 class. We will...

in Madison Square Garden.....who ya got? Jabari Parker will be the best player on the floor, but I cannot bring myself to root for Duke. Go Bruins!

They had a conversation...more than normal. Was KF asking Hazell if Iowa was enough of an open book with zero deception on either side of the ball for Purdue, as Hazell had indicated in the transcript of his presser that Jon printed last week? '' Hey Darrell, were we too tricky today?'' I...

I watched Wisky and Nebby on the BTN last nite, as I could not get the Hawks...and: I was impressed with both teams....Wisky is going with a three guard lineup and they are able to put 5 shooters on the floor...they will be good again. Nebby was very impessive also. Many new players, and...

is reaching a critical stage. Last year Iowa was last in the league in recruiting, and 2014 is not good again so far. The Illini just picked up DJ Williams, who is a concensus top 30 recruit for 2015. Groce has brought in 5 top 100 recruits since he took the job 1.5 years ago. Izzo, Beilein...

Coach John Groce sat down with some of his Illini sophmores yesterday,and today they announced they are transferring. Sophs Mike Shaw, Ibby Djibe and Devin Langford are moving on,thus freeing up 3 schollys for Groce to re-stock his cupboard which was depleted by the departure of seniors...

is almost a must win as Jon has written. Last nite at Michigan,Purdue hung tough for about 28 minutes,leading for much of the game. Iowa was blown out by 30+ at Michigan. Purdue is as young as Iowa with 3 frosh starting(Ronnie Johnson,AJ Hammonds,Rapheal Davis) along with Sophmore Terone...

Miami's Al Golden is emerging as the favorite to be hired by Wisconsin to fill their open football job. Golden is operating under a cloud at Miami,where the Nevin Shapiro scandal resulting in probable NCAA violations is still pending. Miami's president is Donna Shalala,who used to be the...

Last nite on ESPN they had the 30 on 30 documentary on Chicago prep bb star Ben Wilson,who was killed in November of 1984 in an insane moment of street violence outside of his school,Simeon HS. At the time he was in his senior year,and rated as the #1 player in the country as a 6' 8'' Magic...

Evidently, a media member tweeted that Bullock and Lowery did not even travel to East Lansing,as reported on TOS. Might be only a rumor,which I hope is not true. If true, not good. We need all hands on deck! Concussions are very tricky but I though that Bullock was cleared. Lowery's injury...

is gathering steam. The evidence is mounting that student athletes at UNC that have degrees in African American Studies over the last 10 years basically have worthless degrees. At minimum there were 54 classes that were basically shams. Over 2/3rds of all enrollees in these classes were...

In the story on the cancellation of the Big Ten/Pac 12 football series,they indicated that the Big Ten would be going to 9 game conference schedule in 2017,as had been planned awhile ago. I thought this was shelved,and was not going to happen? Now,is it back on,due to the cancellation of this...

I was scrolling around the tv last nite and noticed a BTN PSU Special listed,and flipped to it. It was probably a rebroadcast from earlier in the nite,but this was after 11 oclock last nite. I only caught the last 35 minutes or so of an hour special,but they had Dinardo,Griffin and Revsine in...

Nice try, Phil,but you missed it. Overall, let me say this...OSU and Wisconsin will be the class of the Leaders...with the winner of that game probably ending up on top..of course,that would mean Wisky to the Big Ten title game again because of probation for OSU. I do think OSU is going to be...

Ok,quit chuckling. I know I am late with this,but I was in mourning over the Bulls first round flameout for a couple of weeks....but now that the Chicago Basketball season is truly over,it is time to turn my full attention to the best baseball team in town..(ok, admittedly tallest midget), the...
