Paul Rhoads fail?
The problem with that is you're looking at schedule-only when you need to be looking at experience coming back in 2010. Looking at your roster, you will be heavy on multi-year starters with a full year of the new coaching under their belts, along with a full off-season of training. The 2010 ISU... -

Paul Rhoads fail?
Here's some perspective from a non-ISU fan (for what it's worth)... I think PR has already shown signs that he will be successful at ISU. First off, his heart is in it. That is key since everyone new GC was only at ISU until something better came along. Building ISU will be a long term project... -

I'm surprised ISU didn't go after him harder then... isn't the best player on the Cyclones usually the kicker? All wise cracks aside, the point is that Iowa kids do get offers from big time schools... most would just rather play for the Hawks. Can't say I blame em! -

Kyle Orton went to Purdue at a time when they were one of the best passing schools in the nation, but no, Purdue isn't a "big time" program. You might be surprised to see some offers from Mich, OSU, even Florida on a couple of Iowa boys lists each year. I think the talent pool is smaller, but... -

Arnaud had 7th best total offense performance (in a single game) in 2008???
To be more specific... no D-LINE. You guys would have been 6-6 had you had a decent d-line. It all starts upfront. -

I agree that most years there aren't but 3 guys that will be worth it, but I will bet you Rhodes will be smart enough to give himself a good chance at landing those 3 guys in the future. Geno didn't respect the midwest talent, let alone the team he was coaching... -

First, the BigTen is an average conference at best these days. Don't make me repeat myself, it's too painful. Second, I did not start this ridiculous debate so how am I "hijacking" anything? If I'm on a plane and some guys start taking it over and I make a comment about it to the passenger next... -

The difference is that Iowa fans can admit that the BigTen is down right now. And last I checked I have never "hijacked" anything. lol Some of you Clones take yourselves WAY too serious... :wideeyed: -

I have never seen the "BigTen West" fight before, so I guess it wasn't the same ol fight to me. If you got time to lean you got time to clean... do your homework next time. :cool: -

Buddy, have you been reading this debate? I didn't come up with it. All I am doing is comparing what these guys have been talking about... which is the strength of the B12N vs a fictitious BigTen West division. It's lame, but try to keep up. Side note: Don't mistake that I am saying the BigTen... -

BTW - Iowa landed another in-state gem yesterday in 6-5 300lb OL Brandon Scherff. I would say Gene did some serious in-state damage since Iowa doesn't usually clean up THIS big. I think your new coach is taking the right steps to mend things, which is smart cuz say what you will about Texas... -

I've seen some pretty stupid debates before, but this one takes the cake. Bottom line is this: Any non-Big12 North fan will tell you that the B12N is a average division, at best. This is simply common knowledge to the football world, same as the BigTen has been down as a conference the last few... -

The problem with a lot of these posts is that you are assuming that any recruit from TX or FL is going to be an automatic stud. The fact is that yes, those states are huge for athletes, but the positions that make or break a team (the O & D lines) are better filled by good ol' midwest boys and I... -

Since when has ISU been able to turn their noses up at 3-star talent?? Yeah, go ahead and say there isn't any talent to get as the Hawks rake in the 3-star future in-state studs! It amazes me how you guys think 3-star recruits are below you. Good thing for you your new coach doesn't share that... -

One more reason I hate Mark May
Hahahahahaha... thanks for the good laugh. That's like saying ISU has a shot at beating Iowa this year. Good one. :biglaugh: You guys can make up any excuse you want, but we all know you're just jealous that you didn't get accepted to Iowa. Why keep pretending to like a dead program? Come on... -

College Football Live - June 12 - State of Iowa College Football
Little brother to who?? Nobody sees ISU as a "big brother" in this state. Maybe a red-headed step child, but definitely not an older brother. :jimlad: Oh, and find me a Iowa fan that is talking National Championship, please, because it would be the first one I have heard. Just because we...
