They don't vote every week. KF make them captains for the year.I would say if he really felt that way, and his teammates know it, I doubt that they would keep voting him a capt. every week.

"He doesn't even care, he's just waiting to be drafted"
This is a direct quote from someone inside the locker room.
I can't say I would really blame someone in his position for being let down. you forgo the NFL to come back for 1 more year with national title hopes (or another BCS game at worst) and then the bottom falls out. That's not to say that 3 losses is terrible, but most would call it underachieving especially considering the expectations. Apparently some inside the locker room feel the same way as many fans.
I going to go ahead and call BS on this."He doesn't even care, he's just waiting to be drafted"

Is that how you did it when you were in high school? Well I'm sure thats how the University of Iowa does it then.IDK. We voted our star players/seniors captains in HS really regardless of attitude. was just something you did. there were still many other vocal leaders inside the locker room that weren't captains.
and ours were picked at the beginning of the year
You don't have the slightest f-ing idea what you're talking about.
This is a guy who is so emotionally invested in this team that he had to remove himself from an interview after the Wisconsin game in order to compose himself.
He is a season-long captain.
He didn't come back just to win a title. If you would have listened to anything he was saying pre-season, he came back to improve his game and his skills, which he has done. He also acknowledged that it's harder for a D-lineman to leave early because you are butting heads with grown men and he wanted an additional year of maturity and conditioning.
How people can come on to a message board and spread outright LIES about one of the most dedicated Hawkeyes of all-time is beyond me. Might I suggest you go back to the hole you crawled out of (or tanning bed to work on your Tan Abs)?
How did you do at Stewart/Mingo/Interstate35/Huxley/Meservey Thornton high school? Tough hombres I'm sureIDK.

why is it a bold faced lie? because you don't believe it? I think if I was going to just make something up I could do a little better than that.
not saying I'm an "expert" on football, just saying that in many cases the most talented player is the captain, regardless of how good of a leader they are in the locker room.
Quote is directly from someone close to the team. if you dont believe it, then don't. just passing on what I was told
