a few questions

[NCHawker]

I've been away from the forum for a long time. I have not read all the posts, but I'm sure we're all of one accord on all the recent issues. I have a few questions, then I'll hang up and listen.

1) I'm sure that the issues at Iowa are not unique...so if players were uncomfortable at a place like Alabama where the parents get jobs, and players cash and cars, would players be less likely to speak up? Hasn't happened yet.

2) Will the offense suck again?

3) Why do people insist on having unnecessarily binary (and divisive) arguments... its this instead of that... ANF vs ANE. Why not find room for both.?

4) If there was a game next week in Kinnick would you go? wear a mask?

5) When do beer sales start in Kinnick?

6) have you got a hair cut yet?

7) suddenly Iowa is recruiting better. Is it possible that NFL alumni are providing resources for recruiting now at new levels? ...and maybe they decided to do that provided cultural changes happened?

1) I could see some merit to this
2) I'm always optimistic
3) Like a broken arm, the biggest issue needs to be focused first
4) No, Yes if I did because I'm not a dick and actually care about others
5) Probably not for a few years at least
6) two, my wife was a cosmetologist for 15 years - I married smart
7) I think it has more to do with on field success and the success of individual players

1. Good question. Feels like there's more shoes to drop. You can't tell me with all the past players at all these other schools wouldn't have some stories to tell as well either...

2. Alot is on the shoulders of the new QB. Oline should be solid even with replacing Wirfs. Skill positions we are as stacked as we've ever been just about. So if Mr Petras hits the ground running we should be a tough team to slow down.

3. That's human nature for most folks..

4. If I lived closer I would and naw I wouldn't wear a mask but I wouldn't let anyone go coughing on me either.

5. Not this yr so maybe the next one after that

6. I use clippers to buzz my own. I started losing my hair last yr in the front so been keeping it short.

7. I agree with Ree we've had some good seasons lately with a lot of kids getting drafted in the pros and in the 1st round. That goes a long ways
