Iowa should have waited to have the presser, but if you wait guys like Matt P. and Gregg Doyle can continue to make up things and have no facts behind them. If they wait to have the press conference then the media would be tearing them apart for burying their heads in the sand. As far as...

Maybe I missed it, but has it ever come out why he didn't play in the first half?

I re-watched the game again last night and a couple things that I noticed: On Robinson's first touchdown run, Reiff took out three defenders by himself. He is young and still a little inconsistant, but he shows flashes of first round talent. On Robinson't second touchdown run, Vandervelde...

I couldn't agree more, I think that Coker is too similar to Robinson in running style, Johnson will bring the same element that Wegher brought last year, he has the extra gear and can get the edge after Coker and Robinson have beat up the defense. I think we will see them both on Saturday under...

My thoughts: The defense is stacked, deep at every position and talented. Hopefully we rotate more to keep fresh bodies. Bernstein is versatile, but for someone that was looking to start last year, he has been passed by both Castillo and Hyde. Derby had the red jersey on, but I still see him...

Is this a best case scenario for Fran? Let's be honest, Cougs doesn't fit the mold of what the new system will need and instead of having an unhappy person sitting on the bench, he is ruled ineligible by his own hand. In Lick's system he excels because he likes to play on the outside and...

You might think that I would say Nebraska or Texas here, but the true winners were Jewel Hampton/Jordan Bernstein and USC. In a typical off-season the Hampton/Bernstein arrest would have been talked about for weeks, you would have heard the typical Cyclone banter about Iowa having criminals...

With as involved as KF is with the hospital, I would think they could have a free will donation at the door and donate it to the children's hospital or some other worth while charity in the Iowa City area. I would have no problem paying $5 or $10 to see some live football, even if it's only a...

Threads like this remind me of the classic line in Major League, "How gives a sh** it was gone!" Each side could argue for hours on end and bring up great points for both, but in the end it doesn't matter these players will never compete for the same spot.

Pretty sure next week, the pro day is the 22nd. Players are on spring break this week

If you watched the coverage, the NFL Network guys couldn't stop talking about the Iowa program. How great the coaches are. How polished the players are coming out. Great pub for the program.

With his asthma problems flaring up every fall and the depth at RB, this is probably a good move on his part.
