And with that, I'm out. Rob, thanks for running a great site. I've enjoyed the discussions, and the information everyone has provided to keep me "in the loop" on the Hawkeyes. But, after 10 years, my posting days are over. It has nothing to do with all of the recent events, there were...

Lost 60 pounds in three months. Now looking for something to do, thinking about staying involved in football. Hmm. Special assistant offensive line coach for the Hawkeyes? Sounds like a winner to me...

Per his logic, why should it just be non-revenue sports that are killed? Any program that doesn't turn a profit should be axed. I don't know about this year, but typically Women's basketball operates in the red. Let's cut that. I don't know about wrestling, but if it's down a nickel...

From his Wikipedia page: Sayers was recruited by several major Midwestern colleges before deciding to play college football at the University of Kansas. While being interviewed during a broadcast of a Chicago Cubs game on September 8, 2010, Sayers said he had originally intended to go to the...

My first run, I could name 22 of the 27. I couldn't ID - from left to right front row - No. 3, 6 and 8. back row - No. 2 and 4. UPDATE Here you go, left to right: Front Row - Ronnie Lester, Downtown Fred Brown, Bo Hairston, Rick Williams, Waymond King, Jim Hodge, Kirk Speraw, Chad...

Hard to follow the careers of OL unless you dive deeper into it than what I do, so I had no clue he is that highly regarded. A future HOFer? Also, Yanda’s comments upon his retirement is another solid endorsement for Hawkeye football.

Is that we have to end the season with Wisconsin sharing the Big Ten title. Barf. At least the Hawks beat the Bastgers.

I was listening to Fran’s post game press conference and he was saying that Joe is looking for the perfect situation to get his shot off. That ain’t going to happen. The more the opponents understand that, the more they are going to bump him and force him off stride. And he will fade away more...

Borrowing from ISM, this ought to be Iowa's motto for this fall.

https://www.thegazette.com/subject/sports/hawkeyes/iowa-mens-basketball/staying-grounded-mentally-is-no-problem-for-luka-garza-20200120 I morphed a couple of Frankisms. A reference to the Velveteen Rabbit - awesome. I like what he has to say about Luka returning next year, too. His dad is a...

Moving on, just peeked in the rear view mirror for a second.

@ Nebraska - Win. They should have Duncan on the sidelines with them. Maryland - Win Think they win this one instead of Michigan @ NW - Win Simply need to beat them in Evanston Michigan - Loss Don't see them beating both MD and MI, so going with the MD home win Rutgers - Win Home win...

Since the 15-16 season, not counting the scrub non-conference opponents, Iowa is 9-39 in games in which the opponent scored 80 or more points.* I think it matters. * I might be off a bit, but if so, not enough to matter.

1. Duncan's FG to beat Nebraska - the kiss of death to the Huskers 2. Laurel mowing over Hardy fielding a punt, recovered by Young to seal the win over ISU - no finer comedy ever performed 3. Smith-Marsette's KO return against USC - sorry SC, not tonight 4. Goodson's TD against...

Moreso than most years. If Iowa goes 11-9/10-10 I think that will be a pretty good year; anything above that will be gravy. The same holds true for most other teams, too. Northwestern and Nebraska don't look to be very good, but even they will win some games this year. Every other game...

Iowa’s biggest lead - 25@8:25 in the 2nd half Iowa State’s biggest lead - 0@20:00 in the 1st half. Says it all.

Not sure anyone can save Rutgers football program, but it was a good move. After they bungled the attempt at hiring him, he suddenly re-emerges and gets signed. I can sure see Delany calling Rutgers AD and reminding him all that the Big Ten has done for Rutgers and telling him to get his...

At the end of another heartbreaking loss: Within a few hours, here I am: I know what's coming next. I am certifiable.

It's hard to objectively look at this game and think Iowa can win it. But, Iowa needs to win this game. I submit they need it more than Wisconsin needs it. That's not to mean that Wisconsin doesn't want to win this game as much as Iowa does. They do, and by doing so, they'll put Iowa even...
