    Portal 2026

    JP Estrella starting 6’11 big for Tenn entered portal. Highly ranked recruit Iowa was in final 3 for him when Fran was here. Was a rs soph last year. also no tears shed seeing G Blackwell for Wisconsin entering portal testing nba draft process too.

    Iowa is 14th Best Job in the B1G. North Carolina is 2nd Best Job in the ACC; Kansas is Best Job in the Big 12 (per Coaches anonymously polled)

    Call me crazy but depending how things go with isu next few years and the mess of things with their Athletic Dept and control freak AD Pollard. I could see Otz being a very viable candidate for KU when Self leaves. We saw same with football get a blue blood with better $ all around. hate to...

    Eligibility executive order

    Problem is it has gotten to this point because of the ncaa, conferences, etc screwing things up past few decades with inaction. By not doing anything where after these court cases now we do need govt. action unfortunately to fix the many problems. It’s about the only way we can clear these...

    Jamie Pollard has a new title: “Endowed Cyclone Director of Athletics.” Clown U is still facing a $147 Million budget deficit through 2031

    Feel like clown town and the bridge are all part of Pollards big ego to be a part of his lasting legacy before he leaves. In the end will be probably be remembered for isu athletics downward spiral scrapping bottom of the barrel financially.

    Eligibility executive order

    Conference commissioners applauded it yesterday. It’s a start. Kind of lays foundation for what they want with the Score Act. But before it was announced President even said he expects lot of stuff to go to court with legal challenges will continue. Everyone involved knows a lot more needs...

    Iowa Spring Scrimmage set for 10:45 AM on April 25

    Correct. Just because he isn’t taller doesn’t mean he shouldn’t or won’t run. He’s not a slender guy. I’d rather see a guy like Heck run over a taller guy like Petras. All one has to do is look at the qb we played in the bowl who Heck is built similar too with Pavia but few inches taller...

    Another thing I’ll add is look how the Davis family handled his exit. They had a lot more reason to act upset but Dr tom and keno handled with class. Went to Drake and beyond. Both welcome with arms wide open in IC and Dr tom still beloved and rightfully so. with Fran I think he’s handled...

    Correct. For being a big Michigan alum portnoy has always been very complimentary of IC and Iowa. One of the other big 10 schools he likes. He’s a big fan of and friends with Kittle. guy he’s speaking to who cost him “his relationship” is a fan of Fran. Think has interviewed or met before (a...

    IOWA will be spending over $10M on the 2026-27 roster (Portal opens on Tues, April 7)

    Plenty left in the cold with no school but even productive players leave and realize what people around them are saying isn’t always the case. Rumor has it Entringer in football was example of this. he did get a bump at L’ville over Iowa from source I heard but nothing substantial. He felt he...

    McDermott retiring at Creighton

    Was a great decision to leave for Creighton. Kind of like Alford was on the hot seat and had under achieved there. At time when he left may have been considered a step down just a notch but was to a school who really values b-ball. Both Creighton and New Mexico. But then Creighton with...

    McNutt out?

    “Im saying, according to KF (the most informed expert of the situation, in football terms), BF didn't need to be fired.” Ah yes because no conflict of interest there…. Not like Brian had to report to the AD because of nepotism laws.
