    Addie Deal enters transfer portal

    I think people need to look back at McCabe as a great example. If you go watch her freshman playing season she was slow, seemed super stiff, and only when given a wide open opportunity would she have time to get her shot off. She got better every single year. Deal did not play as well as she...

    AJ Epenesa signs with Browns

    As a commanders fan I wouldn't mind them picking up A.J. as I think they can still use some edge help. Maybe after the draft depending on who they pick.

    We currently have 1 Open Roster Spot if Tavion Banks returns in 2026-27

    I am certainly not positive, but I thought Jesse Shaw put out on X that he was coming to Iowa as an Assistant and I feel like I remember the rumblings were that he might have gotten out ahead of his skis and he ended up getting brought in but not in the assistant role. I wonder if Ben keeps...

    We currently have 1 Open Roster Spot if Tavion Banks returns in 2026-27

    I am hoping Joey M sees the writing on the wall and takes his talent to a lower division and excels. I am really hoping all of the press and interviews have sold those that will be going into the portal that Ben is a coach you want to play for. Give credit to Fran with putting players over the...

    Press Conference

    I listen to a lot of Cory's postgame shows and when he is on with Mark Rogers. Frankly I thought he kept it professional and asked hard questions. How many times do we complain about how the reporters never ask the hard question.

    Ben Kueter

    Heal up Ben! I am curious how long Iowa Football will continue to fund the scholarship if Ben continues to wrestle and not be healthy for the football season. I can't imagine how grueling it is to be in one D1 Power 4 level let alone 2.

    *****2026-27 Transfer Portal News*****

    Your random guesses would be incredibly scary outside of Johnson. I think Mallegni still has a lot of potential to play some good minutes off the bench, Houston will be a big factor next year, Deal will be greatly improved, and I am hoping Rodriguez sticks but she is one that I would not be...

    I'll be that guy...

    I keep seeing people mention grinder ball. First watching it does not seem like grinder ball because of how much movement there is in the offense. Second if he has 5* players he will run a faster tempo offense, but Ben is smart enough to know that if you are going to win with the team he has...

    *****FDU vs Iowa NCAAT Game Thread*****

    Deal obviously had a terrible shooting day, but I did appreciate how active and on point some of her passes were. Today she played more like a non-shooting PG. I am sure she is as disappointed in her shooting today as anyone. I am not sure why, but I have a feeling tomorrow is a great bounce...

    Need Guards Next Year

    Agreed they need at least one for sure. I think the combo of an improved Addie, Chit Chat, Taylor, and player X is a good guard rotation. If player X is not, you must add a three point specialist that can replace McCabe off the bench a few years ago.

    Medal round thread

    If Davino wins and Mendez wins then OSU jumps us. If Davino loses (likely) than we have secured 4th.

    Why did Spratley choose to go down when he was down by 2 in rideouts and would have to get a takedown

    Day 2 Session 4 Thread

    What is the math on this with realistic expectations. Assuming Mendez wins and Davino loses. We have more in the consi, but Drake has a buzzsaw next round so I am anticipating him and Mikey as losses. I haven't studied the other guys yet, but I assume Angelo wins first match and then has a...

    Day 2 Session 4 Thread

    Looks to me like he uses it effectively defensively and is quick enough to launch up and go for his desired underhook. He was definitely very active this match and I didn't see where he was not working and would be called for stalling. He was consistently shooting and MM was not doing anything.

    Yes, he has looked healthy all tournament. I think he guts it out and goes for 3rd. He will probably have to beat Sinclair again
