If Barta were a competent AD, he'd call a presser within the next hour announcing that Northwestern will be a red letter game for Iowa going forward.

+1.

The longer Michigan is in limbo, the better for Iowa. This scenario (RR winning 7 and then getting fired) was exactly what I was hoping for. Hopefully they will take a long time hiring a coach which will lead to decommits from recruits.

Hopefully Harbaugh strings them along for awhile.

I bet Harbaugh decides within a week.

The funny thing is the AD rambled off half their schedule as "red letter" games.

I wouldn't call the upper tier of the conference for the last 30 years "rambling".

I agree, Hester Prynne.

Dimmesdale, is that you?

Iowa now has 5 red letter games every year:

1. Michigan
2. NW
3. Nebraska
4. Michigan State
5. Minnesota

Why? Because those are our division rivals. We will play them EVERY YEAR. Beat all 5, and you are probably playing for a championship in the Big Ten title game.

If these teams were not red letter games before, they sure as heck are now.

I fear that I resemble Chillingworth more than Dimmesdale.

Cyclowns say hi.
(Make it six red letter games.)

Why put extra pressure on? Players and coaches should have plenty of motivation for this game by now. If they don't, there's a problem.

But what does my scarlet letter stand for?

That makes as much sense as bringing a pig to an egg-laying contest.
