    Run Colby, run...

    Well, I guess now we know that it has nothing to do with the type of kids Iowa is recruiting since ISU also offered...

    Regents Probe Going Smoothly?

    Didn't the parents pass up an offer to be part of the first investigation?

    Here we go again...

    Most Hawk fans are predicting 7-8 wins, myself included. I am thinking 3-1 in the pre-conference slate and 4-4 in the Big 10, although I wouldn't be surprised to see them go 2-2 in non-conference games.

    Something I never understood

    I guess it could be better classified as "a departure from the few topics being discussed lately". I just see this housing issue come up all the time and wanted to get Cyclone fans' perspective. I guess that is my point, he is just a man and can't be expected to know where everyone lives and...

    No need for personal attacks.

    Something I never understood

    If that is the case then I guess every parent should be judged according to their kids' actions??? It definitely wasn't the best decision Brian has ever made, but I'm guessing that nearly everyone has done something as serious or even worse at some point in their life. After college I lived...

    Something I never understood

    I know this is a little off topic, but I have always been curious why ISU fans always blame Ferentz for the subsidized housing issue. Maybe my parents were different than nearly all of yours, but aside from knowing my address and periodically visiting they weren't involved with the apt. search...

    good read on cr for free

    Paul is certainly entitled to his opinion, but the thing I took umbrage with was him saying that Iowa's three consecutive top ten finishes were due to luck. Also, capitalizing on Iowa's mishaps, while logical, insinuates that ISU is not capable of gaining the upper hand on their own. It also...

    Landscaping rock

    I just had 3 tons of 2 inch river rock delivered for $150. I used Hallett Materials on the north side of town. I'm not sure what type you're looking for exactly, but 2 inch rock usually looks nicer than the smaller stuff.

    KF: Grand Larceny?

    I would agree with most points made here, but you have to realize that Iowa didn't have much leverage when they negotiated the contract. They were coming off their 3rd straight top 10 finish and NFL teams were sniffing around, the U of I wanted to lock him up and rightfully so. I'm not sure...

    Who has the edge?

    That's true, won't this also be the first road test for either Bates or Arnaud? I think the teams are pretty evenly matched, just a matter of who is ready to play and can impose their will and style of play. I think ISU has a more balanced team but I'm thinking that they will have trouble...

    Who has the edge?

    For the year, Iowa averaged 40.8 yards per punt and ISU had a 39.4 yard average. Here are 2007 stats for Sumrall and Hamilton: Sumrall - 54 rec. for 434 yards (8.0 ave.) Hamilton - 45 rec. for 534 yards (11.9 ave.) Here are the 2007 stats for DJK and 2006 for Brodell who was injured for...

    Who has the edge?

    Between Iowa and ISU, who do you think has the edge at each position this year? I am obviously biased and know more about Iowa's situation at each position, which probably makes it even worse. Here is my take: Quarterback - Push (JC was less than stellar but PB and AA are untested) Running...

    Recruiting and Improving Athleticism

    I guess I was referring to the whole backup quarterback smack ISU fans love to bring up. Clone fans love to stereotype Hawk fans by saying that we always over hype the back up quarterback and think he should be starting. Sounds pretty similar to what a couple of you are saying about Arnaud and...

    Recruiting and Improving Athleticism

    So, why didn't they start last year? They both appear to be great athletes, but they are both pretty green while Meyer was a four year starter. You guys always blast Hawk fans for these types of comments.

    Everson and Saterfield to be arrested

    Great timing for my first post! I'm hearing that pin drop again right now.
