    IC West wrestlers have bad luck

    We have pulled out a lot of top recruits from here and most of them have had major issues: Nate Moore - never lived up to potential. Most likely won't start next year Gambrall - concussion followed by season with weight issues. Hopefully he can repeat his performance from last year's...

    One positive in losing both Norm and KOK

    Many posters on this board placed all the offensive scheme blame of KOK and the bend-don't-break 4th quarter collapses on Norm. Now with a clean slate, we will find out exactly how much of the schemes were due to the coordinators and how much were due to KF.

    How many wins to make the NCAA tournament?

    It's going to be a longshot, but not out of the question. We still have 6 games remaining with bottom feeders (PSU, Nebraska and Northwestern). I think we need to go at least 5-1 if not 6-0 in these games. 5 wins here would give us 16 total. We would then probably have to win 3 of the...

    Iowa's attrition vs other major programs?

    Since I don't follow programs other than Iowa, it would be interesting if someone could research the stats showing our attrition rate for scholarship players vs. the rest of the conference or major programs. I'm curious if what we have experienced is way out of line with the rest of the country.

    Roxanne Conlin

    She says the University was supposed to act before guilt was even tied to Coker. Thankfully she is not a Senator. She needs to go back to doing what she does best. Drinking and driving.

    We need to hire a nationally recognized D-coordinator

    Someone like Tom Bradley. This program just seems to be in a very stale state. The last couple years, we've had more bad news than good from the rhabdomyolysis situtation that made the front of ESPN, to DJK's drughouse, to the fast departure of all our runningbacks, to Norm Parker's retirement...

    I'm getting sick of the NCAA

    I have no problem with capitalism or these institutions trying to make money, but the number of bowl games has gotten out of control. Over half of the Big Ten make a bowl. Money is the only thing preventing a move to a much better playoff system. Everyone brags about KF making bowls every...

    Jovon Johnson

    I hear that he was defensive player of the year in the CFL and possibly will get another shot at the NFL.

    weak big 10 showing illustrates how bad iowa was

    Not much to build with next season as we lose our d-line, left tackle, best corner, best safety. I'm expecting a similar year next season. 6-8 wins

    "That playcall just stinks against this defense"

    Even the commentators are calling out our staff on terrible calls.

    A lot of work needs to be done before March

    Evans - will be a future champion contender, but right now he is closer to a round of 12 talent. I overlooked the Fittery match, but Abdurakmonov schooled him and he is a boarderline AA at best. Marion - He is wrestling lethargically. I have no doubt he will be ready by March, but I would like...

    What happened to Nate Moore?

    Why isn't he wrestling at Midlands this year?

    What's gotten into Roy Marble?

    This guy didn't look like he would ever amount to anything more than a role player after last season and his first few games this season. He has really been stepping up his role in the offense and is shooting a respectable .444 fg% this season after an atrocious .379 last year. By next season...

    Why did Cayle Byers leave Iowa?

    I never heard the official reason. Brands didn't seem to want to speak publicly about it. I'd be curious about Baldasaro too.

    The problem with this roster

    First of all, we need to be patient and give Fran a chance to bring in his own recruits. We are still working with a lot of the old regime's players. I'm excited about Woodbury and Gessell as I believe they will be more talented all around players. Ingram could add some ability to create shots...

    Are the KF apologists the most hostile posters?

    Reading through the posts that criticize KF's coaching decisions, you immediately find several posts with sarcastic and spiteful replies such as: "did not read" "another one off the bandwagon" "I wish you two were coaching the games." "I guess I am an expert on girl's field hockey. I...

    Oh Vintage!

    I recall we had a friendly gentleman's wager on the performance of Russell Wilson this season. I believe it had to do with whether or not he would lead the Big Ten in passing efficiency. It appears that right now he is not only leading the Big Ten, but the entire nation. Doesn't seem like...

    What date is Midlands this year?

    Iowa wins 3 over the sisters of the poor and everyone hypes them

    What a bunch of homers on this board. Hopefully this half against Creighton puts things back to reality on here. Some local writers were even talking NCAA tournament. These must be the same people who kiss KF's rear and ask softballs after every loss to Minny and ISU.
