    Omg why is the time set one hour ahead?!

    Like China, the U.S. should really switch to one time zone. I suggest we all switch over to standard universal "Jeb Time".

    Who do you want to see win the QB battle?

    My personal take is that these are very different players with different playing styles. I think Brown and pocket passer types are no longer a schematic fit for Iowa. His type worked in the old pro style offense, but it really isn't a good fit in the new Shanahan RPO scheme. Hecklinksi is a...

    Looks like Mark Gronowski has a legit shot at making an NFL roster

    This man, if his arm is healthy, is the hidden gem of this NFL draft.

    VOTE: Is Kirk a Hall of Famer (assuming he maintains at least a .5950 win percentage)? He's currently at .5972 (has to go at least 7-6 next season)

    @Franisdaman How do the vacated wins affect the HOF math for Kirk, if at all?

    Spencer Petras joins Fresno State as analyst.

    Things are moving in the right direction for Brian. Sorry if you don't like him, but I'll always supportive of anyone who graduated from Iowa (including Spencer). I think there's a 80% chance Brian goes to a power program in the next 4 years. Yes, that's a long slog back to the power level...

    Spencer Petras joins Fresno State as analyst.

    I bet you a dozen or more try to land ine of thise offensive analyst positions on the Fresno State staff, and Brian got to fill it with "his guy", which means he's got some pull within the building.

    Spencer Petras joins Fresno State as analyst.

    That's fair criticism, the numbers don't lie. It would appear that Matt Entz is willing to look past all of that, and that he has a lot of faith in Brian's ability to coach O line, such that he's letting him bring in his own analyst/assist of choice. I imagine BF and Spencer bonded a lot...

    Spencer Petras joins Fresno State as analyst.

    For Brian himself, but also for Kirk. Kirk's legacy took a bit of a hit with the whole Brian as O coordinator, Barta as his "supervisor", and as Brian QB coach fiasco. So the more success Brian has outside of Iowa and away from Kirk, the more Kirk's credibility is restored.

    Spencer Petras joins Fresno State as analyst.

    His X profile says "Assistant Offensive Line Coach". https://x.com/spencerpetras During his medical year at Iowa he was supposedly working with the Oline. It looks like maybe he's trying to establish himself as an Oline coach, which is smart if he wants to leverage his ties to Ferentz...

    Norvell new RB coach

    Jay is smart, has been an OC and a head coach, and has been a position coach on the offensive side for every position except RB. This guy knows offense. I think he'll do just fine.

    Nebraska fans really have a problem with Iowa

    Not worried, most Nebraska fans couldn't find Iowa City if you started them on I-80 and told them to drive East.

    Jackson Stratton

    Interesting that he didn't go G4/5. Probably has a good chance to start at USD. Nice weather too.

    Jay Norvell joins staff

    The nice thing is that, under the new rules, the analysts no longer have to pretend that they aren't providing on the field coaching anymore (they all did this for years). Now they can coach the players, they just can't do off-campus recruiting. I hope he shares some of his WR coach knowledge...
