Does anyone else think it is strange that there is no fullback listed in Iowa's starting lineup in this ESPN article? Does ESPN know something the rest of us don't?

Wiseman is a fullback

ESPN doesnt know ****, kluwa and the other guy will get their downs. But there could be more h-back with and extra tight end motioning across the formation.

Duzey or hamilton as an h-back could block or slip out of the backfield and totally burn a Lbkr.

Espn is Espn.... Who knows. I think they are used to most teams not having or using one much so they just assume Iowa isn't either. It's a bad excuse but only one i can come up with

Espn does not even know a tiny portion of what the HN community knows.

The SEC doesn't use fullbacks therefore no one else uses them either. ESPN's vision stops outside the glory hole that is the SEC.

KF doesn't know a tiny portion of what we know.

Keep the opponents guessing who it will be. Belichick type move by KF.

There hasnt been a fullback in our lineup since Norm Granger

Unless the position is on the field more than a 2nd TE or 3rd WR it really isn't a starting spot. Our FB is on the field less than those 2 spots. I would say the starting lineup should have 2 TEs. But most teams have 3 WRs in the starting lineup so I get why they did it that way.

Weisman is all sorts of fullback.

I think you're on to something here. For example, he does not know my moniker or why I use it. He never learned how to exacerbate and does not know where I went on vacation. And that's only the half of it.

I know waaaay more about coaching the foozeball than the captain, and I only make about half what he does. It's complete bull ****, which is why I chew his *** from the stands in Saturdays.

Loved Stormin' Norman but David Hudson would like to have a word with you.

well at least you can get seats close to the field with the $2 million a year you make.

 

[pekurhawk]

Hudson has potential until he pulled up lame goin down the sideline

 

[NCHawker]

who knows how KF's fullbacks would have done if they got the ball. Some you disqualify right away but others seemed pretty athletic.

Along with Lew Montgomery, Marvin Lampkin and a few others...

...and don't forget the "Rolling Ball of Butcher's Knives". But my vote still goes to Hudson. Even with nagging injuries he amassed 1987 yards from scrimmage and 25 touchdowns. Caught 60 balls as a fullback. And Hayden referred to him as the best blocking back he ever coached. High praise indeed. I dare say no one in at least the past 40 yrs has done more from the fullback position than David Hudson. Not even Jon Lazar.
