Is Teague the sheik class or the dog s___ class?
It's been days without any significant leaks or information. Getting punchy. I am starting to wonder what the answer to this question is, however.
I cannot believe how well Teague is doing at stopping the leaks. There is literally no information on anything right now. The only thing we think we may know concerns Anthony Grant and a possible interview that the Richmond Brawler claims was confirmed by his "Alabama lackey".
I would like...
There were plenty of foibles today to be sure, but we nearly beat Southern Cal on the road coming off a 3 win season with a new coach. The downside is that we saw many horrible errors that Kill proclaims to be not a part of his program (delays of game, false starts, etc). In the end, I was...
I am a little perplexed by Rivals' failure to rate Maxx Williams and Nick rallis to date. Presumably, Rivals tries to rate all of the guys it thinks are the top guys in each state and at each position. Scout has both guys as rated three stars and both are on the Butkus watch list. On Rivals...
I am curious as to why Coach Kill has not pulled Andre McDonald's offer. McDonald pledged to Minnesota after being warned by the staff not to commit unless he was serious. He is now visiting one of our arch rivals.
Kirk Ferentz built a legacy turning 2-star quality or less into NFL dynamo...
I was discussing our current commit list with a friend of mine who is a major Iowa Hawkeyes fan. He argued coaching, not offers, creates productive players and if Kill can do that we should be fine. As evidence, he offered the following list of Iowa Hawkeyes who went into the NFL (their...
For me it is a tossup but one of these two guys should be coaching our team next year. My only fear is that there will be no "suitors" for Tubby after his latest debacle.
Any ideas what our starting OL will look like to start next season? I am particularly interested in whether Jimmy Gjere will be in there and if not, what his progress has looked like to anyone who knows. When I hear of Tommy Olson possibly getting some starting snaps next year, I have to...
Down from 22 all day. I cannot for the life of me figure out who is missing? Anyone know what is up?
EDIT: Just figured it out. Devin Crawford-Tufts is no longer listed as a Gopher commit on Rivals.
I know he had been a greyshirt and taken off our commit list for 2011, but he has now been added back under the "Signed Letter of Intent" column. Don't know what that means, but welcome Joe Bjorklund.

Depending on your point of view, Pat Forde may be 99.9999% correct on this savagery of the Iowa football program. One thing I personally cannot abide however is this ridiculous cheap shot passage:
"You won't find many...
I think it's a bit crazy that out of 20 recruits for 2011 so far, we don't have a single D-lineman or RB in the group. The entire class seems to be OL, DB's, LB's and WR's. Are any of these guys projected to switch positions?
I also think it is interesting that we have 20 commits and 11 of...
