    The Iron Sheik should take over this search, make it humble

    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.

    Teague Has It On Lockdown

    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...

    Fantastic Start to the Kill Era

    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...

    Maxx Williams and Nick Rallis underrated by Rivals?

    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...

    Andre McDonald- Pull His Offer

    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...

    Our Commits: No other offers... no problem?

    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...

    Take your pick: Kevin McHale or Flip Saunders

    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.

    Starting OL Next Year?

    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...

    Rivals only listing 21 LOI's for us now

    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.

    Joe Bjorklund signs LOI with Gophers

    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.

    ESPN rips Iowa- goes too far

    http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/columns/story?columnist=forde_pat&id=6069090 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...

    2011 Class- No D-linemen or RB's

    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...
