Because whatever you believe to be a ceiling is actually something closer to a floor.
What if my ceiling was a national championship? Are you suggesting that this is actually merely the floor, and that there's something even greater than a national championship!?!?!?! @Franisdaman 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲
S......l.......o.......w down a little this time of night?
Only so you can keep up. Can't reel you in, otherwise. 😉

Wouldn't waste my time with that loser,
Ehh, it's fun getting him riled up so that he can counterargue for the sake of counterarguing (i.e. Basically suggest something in an extreme connotation and he'll respond to argue the opposite. Say Iowa is a bad team and he'll argue they're better than you think and being negative is only harming the team. Say Iowa is the best team ever, and he'll argue that you're putting unnecessary expectations on the team.)

The more I get him to post, the more he reveals to everyone else that he is merely here to troll people in his own way, rather than add anything useful.

Just stop.

You clearly called 8-4 a ceiling for Iowa.

Why do you all play dumb when you get called out on something? Smh

Fan opinion couldn't be any more useless.

I'm trying to make better fans for the sake of the team, sports, the future of sports and what's being taught to kids, and my own selfish rooting interests by giving my team its best chance to win.

At least you recognize one annoying type of fan, "the exaggerator". Yes, I call them out often. Bad fans are bad for sports

I can respect that. I'm at the point where I'm just continually messing with him. A user who openly admits to just being here to police fans instead of talking about and celebrating the sport isn't worth taking seriously or responding to. But it's fun to watch him flounder.

And why is "talking about football" a more noble reason to be here?

One of us is actually doing something for the sake of the team.

And yet another mischaracterization from 2Dense. Educating and policing are not the same. And we've been over this before. Get a clue
Thank god the team has you.

I figure your postings are worth 2-3 wins a season, at the minimum.

Remember friends, Eyes has never said not to pass the ball. He has only ever said, "run the ball".

Anything I've posted about the passing game has been nearly entirely a commentary about fans relationship with the passing game, and how they've used it for garbage narratives. It's appearing the chances 2Dense will ever understand that are becoming more slim.

It's very weird what you've chosen to make out of 3 simple words

A good player but not the athletic freak that Coop was but who is.
I noticed some really good moves and hip swivel on the QB run in that video. Hard to tell how fast he is. And if he grew 4-5 inches in this last year it might take him awhile to get used to that new size and frame.

I hope he will be pretty fast and be a hybrid TEnd WR

Looks like a good get.

Surprised, given his pedigree, there weren't more B10 schools in on the hunt for him. Michigan yes, but no Wisconsin, no Illinois.........

NEWS FLASH : 6-4 220 high school TE prospect doesn’t have the same kind of quickness/speed a NFL corner does, lol idiots
He could have the straight line speed, I mean Usain Bolt was not short, but you are correct about cutting, swiveling, and going in and out of breaks I think the shorter receivers have an edge there as far as "quickness"

Man, a lot of options for where to play him. He is Jack Campbell size at 6-4 220 , could be a DEnd, TEnd of course or if he has the speed also play WR out wide to set up mismatches.

If he grows another 2 inches then probably TEnd or DEnd.

I’m not not trying to be funny here, but was there ever reasonable doubt that he wouldn’t go to Iowa?
Agree, a very recent, and highly successful connection to the team, parents have about a 4 hr drive, wearing the black and gold, parents would have a long drive to Purdue, MSU, even Northwestern, Minny and Nebby would be decent drives for the parents but c'mon.

Cinderalla story if he is also great at Iowa and the brothers would have and even stronger bond. I wish him well like all our players. It is hard to rise to starter but Iowa rotates a lot of players.

This makes too much sense.
My reply to 85Bears was that straight line speed could be equal or close for a 5'11 or 6 ft guy vs a 6'4 or 6'5 guy, I reminded him that Usain Bolt was not short. But yeah I think coming out of breaks/cuts is probably quicker for a shorter player

Again, my intentions are not to police. I've explained exactly what they are.

Do you purposefully mischaracterize or are you just 2Dumb?

Celebrating the sport? 🤣 Just stop.

Are you celebrating the sport when you rant (incorrectly) about KF being an awful bowl prepper?

Are you celebrating the sport when continuously pointing out that basketball media and fans want to see Hausen playing more minutes? You can call it whatever you want. But what most good fans do is simply support what the coach is doing

What would Iowa do without him policing fans and telling us how to properly root for the Hawks? We'd be Nebraska right now if we didn't!

I don't think he's smart enough to detect sarcasm, so we better be careful or his ego will inflate to the point of having its own gravitational pull.
