And ironically enuff, thats why they get the money they do. Exposure….rightly or wrongly the blame always falls back on them. If the players dont catch, run, tackle….it always falls back on the coaches. Just like it does when the department or business you or I run fails, its our fault. If we all understood [...]

I see u beat me to it Richard, this is more typical fan stuff…..Johnny had offers from Iowa St, Wyoming Colorado St, UTSA, etc, etc, etc…..and finally Oregon and Stanford…he had very little pub the season before.

Well lets remember KOK wasn’t very popular either and he was better than the average Iowa fan realized. In fact when cats like you or Paul or Mr. Miller are against something it makes me seriously consider that it is likely okay after all…..:-)

Well the good news is Johnny wasn’t a 4 or 5 star either, but rather a 3 star with offers from the likes of UTSA, Iowa St, Tulsa, Colorado St, La Tech, Rice..and finally Stanford and Oregon….

David Barrett, is he the kid who went to that naional championship maker Michigan State….or David Kenney, did he go to the home state university where his dad coached? IU right….have they ever won 10 games? Honestly do people really believe what they put in print……? Okay here is the DEAL….there are now about 124 [...]

LOL….Touche’

one other things kudos to Brian for stepping up and saying what a lot of us fans have thought.

Touche’ Mike. One day maybe well have people standing outside our offices heckling us about how much we make to do a bad job. As far as that goes its interesting that we on the outside, tell someone on the inside like Brian Ferentz “he” is missing the point. And thats what the Interent has [...]

4.41…thts better than likley 2/3rds of the wide receivers in the NFL! As Ive said a multitude of times…Iowa isnt slow, the Big 10 isnt slow and our problems last year werent because our Wide Receivers couldnt run. Not picking on Davis the coach nor the WR nor anyone but we had other problems. I [...]

Couple thoughts here….as Mike will attest I dont agree with him much nor likley Max but I cant really remember for sure….with that said I dont like the “didnt play comment” mostly because people will more often than not lie or over inflate what they did or did not do anyway. The Truth is whether [...]

To tell you the Truth, I actually hate to start dogging on Iowa fans already, especially when I’d planned on avoiding “blogs” altogether………. but a link from another article and a quick perusal later here I am…doh!!! Im not saying Tanner Miller is great, but he is fast and athletic and far, far, far from [...]

Holy snikes are you kidding me…what a rotten, broken down analogy. Wes Welker runs about 4.7 and is 4 feet tall. The best Rbers in the nfl are hardly the fastest and Alex Smith hardly executes a game plan better than AlKapernick. All I can say is we are really, really fortunate you nor any [...]

Aaah yes and ironically so should USC, eh?!?! This is why I enjoy these threads…easy to run it around in circles…no easy answers eh coach?!

LOL…..u dont say….well one thing I always enjoy asking people that ask that question is why hasnt Texas won 10 straight national championships or USC or, or, or….i/e: poor line of questioning and not easy to sum up?! What else do you like to ask Mike? Right now Texas is in a simialr rut [...]

Ill add even more….in baseball, the team who hits the best, fields the best and throws the best or at least the best combination of all 3 typically wins. In basketball, the team that shoots the best and defends the best typically wins…..everyone always knows whats going to happen. There are very few surprises. In [...]

Can u say…brain washed group think…its funny, they talk about processes and execution in every board room and training seminar in America yet when it comes to football it offends you guys……its ALL about execution!!!!! I can watch any game and predict whats coming with regularity..and in fact spread offenses its even easier…..play action and [...]

ESPN and my head….and yes KF has offered those kids every year and every year hasnt gotten them…its not new…same formula only our “averag” has gone up and our results down….?!?!?!

Ur kidding right…….I guess we are study different things….Im not going to dig real deep here but I instinctively know that many of these NFL factors (USC imeadetely comes to mind) have had a lot od kids who came in as studs and become those roster fillers that you so shallowly mentioned. Its those that [...]

Id probbly settle for some Shonn Greens and Pat Angerers and Dallas Clarks and Chad Greenways and Charles Godfreys and Bradley Fletchers and Amari Spieveys and Kevin Kaspers and, and , and…….

By the way from what my buddies who play lots of poker say, a pair of Aces gets you beat…A LOT!!!!!!
