    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)

    I always have felt contract extensions should be obvious. The year Barta gave Fran his last extension, he did it after the (pointless) B1G tourney (that we won) but before the NCAA tourney (where we lost to Richmond). I remember thinking after that game McCaffrey should've been fired not...

    *****Virginia vs Iowa NCAAT Game Thread*****

    The gals just finished playing 5 awful 1/2s of basketball. True they lost to UCLA by a bunch. But we MAY survive this awful stretch still alive and well. Looking better

    RIP Ryan Driscoll

    Yes after he broke his collarbone midway through the 94, I recall we struggled to find a healthy QB. The names I recall were Jefferson Bates, Corby Smith, Mike Duprey and Matt Sherman and all were banged up. I think Bates & Smith got hurt in maybe the same quarter. Duprey started a couple and...

    No emotion no swagger

    Sheesh lighten up on Mallegni. She needs playing time now that she’s finally healthy. Glad she hung in there.. we’ll need her down the stretch.

    Rutgers $78m in debt

    I always love the “kick out team xx from the B1G” talk. But it’s foolishness. There is no path to kicking teams out & there’s no way any1 leaves. Which is good because it keeps the big boys from throwing us out when they decide to band together for yet more $$ which is inevitable.

    Stuelke B1G POTW & Deal Freshman POTW

    We are finally seeing Hannah become the player we all hoped she could be. Great to see

    Hawks land P transfer Tanner Philpott

    I think Gary Kostrubala (was also a shot-putter) was our last lefty punter but that was 40 years ago & I may have forgotten 1 or 3

    How do you grade the Hawk's portal pickups?

    I realize that this year we had a very large senior class, and it gave our coaching staff, a unique opportunity to use the portal to improve all of our weak spots without having to chase a bunch of guys away. We won’t get that every year. The thing I like about what we’ve been doing is, we are...

    Kade Pieper moving to center

    It never made sense to me three and four years ago our offensive line could be so horrible. Iowa should always be offensive line U. It’s the one position we can always find players for and develop. But I think part of the disaster three and four years ago was that we had a quarterback trying to...

    Transfer Portal Visitors

    Is George eligible for another year? It’s why I am not a fan of “1 & dones”. 1 injury & ita a Waste

    DJ Vonnahme appreciation thread (146 yds is the 2nd-MOST receiving yards in a single game by an Iowa TE in program history)

    My son lives in Wall Lake just down the road from Breda. He’s driven me by the Vonnahme home this summer & told me to keep an eye out as he would be great. Prophetic..

    When you score to go up 27-23 why go for 2? Anyone, any good reasons

    Forget Bielema.. Woody Hayes had the best “why did you go for 2” response when they did that late in a game against Michigan in a lopsided win. His response was because we couldn’t go for 3.. classic Woody

    Tulane and James Madison

    I know we absolutely don’t belong in the CFP but I think we would EASILY pound both of those teams. Meanwhile we will be playing either Tennessee or Vanderbilt, both of whom would also annihilate these two teams, but have no chance of getting in either. Something is broken to be sure

    Protected Starting Offense, Defense punt returner next year (before portal), GO

    Myslinski coming back is great news. I know most will disagree but I was not a Logan Jones fan.. it wasn’t his fault he played 2 years where he had no business on the field but I always thought we played better when Myslinski, the few times he was healthy, was in there.
