Iowa Football Recruiting

[Gonzo]

These trolls spent weeks of their lives trying to discredit a 17 point Fiesta Bowl win and then got molly-whopped by unranked Oregon in the biggest basketball game of the century for Hok. You couldn't script it any better.

Interesting question so I looked a few things up. In the 10 seasons prior to the B1G moving to divisional play, Iowa played Penn St. 8 times, Michigan 8 times, Michigan St. 8 times, and OSU 6 times. There were four seasons where Iowa played all 4 of them, and in those seasons went 10-3, 10-2, 11-2, and 8-5. During that entire span, Iowa averaged 8-9 wins per season. Who knows how they'd do today, but they seemed to do ok against the best teams in the East back then.

Thank you for this piece of information about a bunch of years ago. Dually noted.

What was the hok record against those four teams in the four seasons you referenced?

Remember when you said Iowa cherry picked stats for using 2015? This is using 2017. Like wtf is that lol. It’s not like Campbell started in 2017 either.

Well, considering this years 5th year seniors started in 2017 it seems somewhat relevant . . .

It's truly incredible how much Iowa has sidestepped tOSU even in those days.

Maybe I'm not following, but the hoks played Ped St, MI, MSU and OSU 16 times in four years?

In the 10 seasons before the B1G went to divisions, Iowa played all four - PSU, OSU, Michigan, and MSU - in four of those 10 seasons.

4 (PSU, OSU, MSU, Michigan) x 4 (2010, 2009, 2004, 2003) = 16 total games against those four programs.

In those 16 games Iowa went 11-5.

Is that good?

 

[IceCyIce]

No, Hok. And it has nothing to do with the racial issues.
It's worse.

Are you serious Clark.....

Shouldn’t we be getting more out of Kirk Ferentz given the headlines on his watch?

That's actually a really good article

The worst stuff about the situation in that program hasn't even come out yet.

Well?

Condon just said on the radio that Petras isn't the guy to get Iowa to the next level.

Well if Padilla and Hogan can’t surpass Petras, what does it say about them?

They're victims to Kirk being stubborn? LOL

That’s not a bad hypothesis.

FWIW, I have it on good authority that Petras is legitimately good in practice. The staff and players alike were really surprised when he sucked last year. Some guys just don’t have it when the bullets start flying, and unfortunately it looks like Petras may be one of those guys.
