    You guys are draining

    Ding, we have a winner! Today in Kansas City, the Chiefs dropped to 1-10 and went yet another game without making it into the end zone. Fans have responded to the ineptitude with a grassroots movement, wearing black shirts and paper bags over their heads, and flying banners high above Arrowhead...

    Fans, please dont boo and throw stuff at the players

    OK, my Sarcastometer 4000 was apparently on the fritz earlier, but it's working again and I can start to sense the sarcasm now. But just for fun, I will entertain your question by saying he makes $7.23 a minute. Take that number and multiply it however you want and you can have some real fun...

    Recruits

    That's a nice sentiment and all, but I don't see it happening anytime soon. Not as long as campuses view players as commodities rather than people, and take lucrative television contracts so they can build palatial stadiums/practice facilities and pay their coaches buku bucks. Until college...

    Apathy

    Gold star for you, my friend. At the end of the day, Hawkeye football is nothing more than a giant corporation. And what would investors do if the stock continued to decline and the long-term forecast showed no signs of progress ahead? SELL! SELL! SELL!

    Recruits

    Unfortunately, we are in a tight spot thanks to this contract he has through 2020, basically leaving us with one of two options: 1)Buy KF out for the remainder of his contract and then pay another guy x amount of dollars for potentially similar results. 2)Let him continue the status quo over...

    Recruits

    You bring up an excellent point, but let me take that a step further. I was at Iowa when the whole Pierre Pierce debacle happened, and that brought a great deal of resentment toward student-athletes by the rest of the student body. The feeling was that they did not have to follow the same set of...

    This inflation is terrible.........

    Indeed there are. 99 percent, to be exact.

    KF needs to donate his entire salary to the university.

    He needs to publicly acknowledge that the successes and failures of this program start with him as the head coach. Then he needs to make an effort to keep an open mind to the constant changes occurring in the college football system and try to adapt to them.

    KF needs to donate his entire salary to the university.

    We'd be less upset if he were actually held accountable for this team's poor performance over the last 2 1/2 years.

    The Beginning of the Revolution?

    Once limited to a "lunatic fringe," I think the anti-KF movement may have grown some legs tonight. People loudly booed Vandenberg, and some even threw the yellow ANF towels at the players as they were heading into the locker room at halftime. How much of it had to do with fans having 12 hours to...

    Decision 2012: Vandy or Rudock

    Yet here you are commenting. And for the record, I do care what people think. Why would I have asked the question if I didn't?

    Decision 2012: Vandy or Rudock

    There's been a lot of criticism about JVB, and rightfully so. But I'm curious, would you rather see Rudock out there? Personally, I'm on the fence about it.

    Which Iowa team is Nebraska going to play, the one that beat Minnesota or the one that lost to Central Michigan?

    Question for Teh Diesel and Media and errrbody else

    This is what I hear when KF speaks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss2hULhXf04 Both men are deserving of the criticism they get.

    What is it with Gus Johnson?

    It seems that every game he calls goes right down to the wire (see Texas/Oklahoma State right now) and he gets really excited. I'm worried that one of these days, he is going to spontaneously combust on live television.

    Wisc vs Nebby

    So who's he going to fire this week?

    Shades of when tOSU went to Lincoln last year.

    Little disappointed...

    While there is still a lot more I will need to see before I am convinced that us glass half-empty people are overreacting and the program is just fine, I see today's game for what it was: an important win. The trophy case is no longer empty, and my hope is that these guys will see the prized pig...
