    Nuggets of wisdom from Goopherville

    I think Nebraska smoked Minny but that must have been a total fluke, too.

    Who do we root for?

    Yes, this is so obvious. A 1 loss B1G team got in last year and we are part of the defending title conference. Find something else to worry about, drama queens!

    Iowa is Ranked #1 in at least 5 polls

    Well, you know, college football does offer a measure of continuity from one season to the next and simply is not played in a vacuum. I'd hesitate to even pull this top 4 talk out from under the rock until we get to the CCG undefeated,or some of the other no-loss teams stumble. Looking one...

    Hawks to Host a Wrestling Duel at Kinnick: Will Set Attendence Record

    Properly clothed and provided that the mat will still cushion adequately, I can't imagine that weather around 35 degrees would be that bad if the wrestlers can be adequately warmed up prior to going outside. Would be a lot less jarring and injury prone than cold weather football.

    This is why it's painful..

    For me, it's all about the cool and dry spring breezes when you're getting ready for the coming season. Breathing the fresh air, knowing your alive- seeing your shadow in the bright sunlight to prove it. You know what? You're a God Damn sword boat capt.... I mean Football coach. Is there...

    It's the Running Backs Stupid

    My vote is poor running back performance from low quality running backs.

    Phil Roberson?

    What I don't like about evangelicals is how they have to wave it in your face- like some sort of faith pride parade. If they could just go about their business quietly, normal society would likely be far more tolerant of them.

    Athletes Getting Paid

    I'd bet that it will be sooner than that- like 30 years sooner.

    How will this affect his NFL career?

    Kirks holds Iowa back again

    U of M medical school is ranked in the top ten for research. I wonder if Harbaugh is ready to accommodate some odd practice times.

    OT: Chris Borland cites health concerns; retires from NFL

    Agreed. Cognitive function is a terrible thing to have to trade for a living. Can't fault people who don't make the same decision as Borland but he's showing guts and intelligence.

    Kirks holds Iowa back again

    Two QB schemes are generally crap. KF's instinct was that Rewdok was the better QB. The Harbaugh interest seems to bear that out. Now we'll go with Bethhardd.

    I knew it...I knew it....I knew it....

    The kids most likely to see heavy action as freshmen are the same ones likely to be looking at the draft after 3 or 4 years. We're not going to pay them so I have absolutely no problem leaving them one year of their prime to the NFL.

    tale of two quarterbacks

    So, this leads to the question: What is Jake Rudock's signature win? Nebraska 2013? Ohio State Moral victory 2013?

    What's Next for Iowa Football?

    There is a lot of momentum to let a 'great' coach just bide his time until it's clear that the end has come. This can backfire horribly, of course, as the PSU drama shows. The legendary coach of that team had no idea how bad things were. He did not, in fact, have the strength to even stand...

    Standing with the Hawkeye players

    I think it's beautiful what you've done. Made me realize that it really is all about the players.

    The Big Ten conference is baacckk!

    The MSU game is like a bomb exploding. Outstanding! I like this win better than their victory over Stanford last year in the Rose Bowl. When the #2 (ranked) B1G team can make that kind of statement against TCU's co-champion in the Big 12, it's awesome.

    Hard Work Beats Talent When Talent Doesn't Work Hard

    Yes, of course. It's very difficult for a quality coach to get 4 star talent to buy in when there is so much 2 star talent that's just raring to go.

    How funny is it..

    You're assuming that the three star high schoolers we are really trying for are incredibly uninformed about football.

    Here's an Idea

    I suggest that you declare your moratorium unilaterally and refrain from fussing about Hawks, moratoriums, etc., for the set amount of time.
