    Where things stand with Iowa, Alvaro Folgueiras

    I'm sure it's a bit more tricky than I tried to explain it and I did see they haven't finalized how to deal with the new revenue sharing stuff, which they also shouldn't qualify for "on paper" because it's basically working for the school to be compensated. But there has to be some workarounds...

    Where things stand with Iowa, Alvaro Folgueiras

    They can make money from merchandise with their likeness but can't actively promote it themselves (think Tory Taylor in football from the punting t-shirts although he donated all the money IIRC), but can't do any "work" like autograph signings and endorsements since they are on student visas and...

    About the only one I can think of that would jump.

    Is Third The New First? - The "What Was PJ Duke Thinking?" Edition

    It can become especially glaring in the womens tournament now where there are no majors, only techs or pins that are more frequent. On the mens sides it seems like forfeits are a big factor in backside bonus points more than anything. Iowa State outplaced us a couple years ago by 1.5 because...

    One Shining Moment....Alvaro's shot & Cam/Bennett make the cut

    I'd have to watch them again, I think Moss had a brief clip diving for the ball or something for the year we beat Cincy and lost to Tennessee. Connor made it getting blocked by the Grand Canyon kid that passed away a couple days after the game, always thought that was a nice tribute for them to...

    One Shining Moment....Alvaro's shot & Cam/Bennett make the cut

    Surprised Alvaro's dunk to finish off Nebraska didn't make it too. But I'm still surprised Oliver's behind the back half court pass to Settles for the dunk against Arkansas or Woodbury's buzzer beater, though not the prettiest play I'll grant you, against Temple didn't make the cut for their...

    AJ going to be a Hawk?

    The revenue sharing formula comes from the average revenue earned by the P4 schools. It was capped at 22 percent, which averaged out at 20.5 million. So for some school 22 percent might actually be 25 million, but they can still only distribute 20.5 of that. Other schools 22 percent may come...

    AJ going to be a Hawk?

    Hard to read much into that, he's wanted to be at Iowa for three years now. We were even on his video of finalists with PSU last year and I don't think there was ever more than a cursory conversation nor was there for PSU. I don't even think he'd require much money because he wants to be here...

    AJ going to be a Hawk?

    Not exactly progressive, I mean if he didn't get the extra Covid year getting banned from the 2021 celebration would've been is final act as a Hawkeye wrestler. Not a great sign that you matured at all in those three years he had been there. He still takes losses really poorly as recently as...

    AJ going to be a Hawk?

    Austin threated a teammate's family after their match, got suspended mutliple duals, lost penalty points for behavior (not stupid spiking headgear) and of course was banned from the 2021 team title celebration for his behavior with the media there. They overlooked a lot of things on his part...

    Portal April 1st

    The portal isn't going to be as exciting as the past few years. There aren't 5th, 6th, and even 7th year guys looking for a new home and in turn there aren't those same guys blocking younger recruits that don't want to wait for them to get out of the way.

    Florida Gator 7'9" Oliver Rioux. The 19-year-old RS freshman from Canada is the World’s Tallest Teenager & tallest player in CBB History

    Antonio Ramos, and he ended up at Clarke College. Sadly he can no longer lay claim to the most points scored by a Spaniard in Hawkeye history, Alvaro broke his record (probably in the opener this year, but I can't remember for sure).
