Hawkeyes - Spartans (Senior Day) Game Thread

[Fryowa]

Gronowski needs to start running more. Things worked when we leaned into that

 

[Hawke]

Oregon showed everyone how to neutralize wetjen: whatever you do, don’t kick it to him

My Main Man Wetjen is The Goods, Jack

 

[Fryowa]

If he gets his route running and receiving stuff tightened up, he’s getting drafted

Part of it is Iowa doing Iowa things. Once he gets NFL workouts they’ll see he can be a slot guy like an Edelman, albeit not as good as Edelman obviously. Yet.

 

[Fryowa]

He’s not just better than Dwight he’s the best of all time

 

[Seth53]

Does sparty even look at tape?

 

[Hawke]

Never thought there would be anyone better than Timmy Dwight. I was wrong

I played TD in a backgammon tourney. I won

Someone will take a late round flyer on him…especially if his 40 time is solid.

 

[Fryowa]

0-4 QB and leading the game

lol, great question.

 

[justwinbaby]

I have no idea why anyone would ever kick to Wetjen.

 

[Hawke]

At least he’s perfect

This backgammon thing intrigues me. I’m a card player and have always wanted to learn that game but figured I was too dumb. I’ve won a few larger size cribbage tournaments. Is backgammon something you can learn and get decent at at age 45?

Wetjen reminds me of Tiger Woods in his prime. Sometimes you just knew Woods would rise to the occasion and win. Statistically even the best golfer just isn't going to win. Statistically, you don't get a kick return at all. Let alone 6 of them.

I really hope this doesn't end up being one of those stressful, always in doubt games.

From everything I have heard TD is a different cat. And I say that as a good thing.

It’s been said it takes ten minutes to learn and a lifetime to master. Weaker players will say it’s a game of luck, the pro’s will tell you it’s a game of odds & percentages. It’s the most exciting game i know of.
