Iowa Beat Writers

[cycloner29]

I think he was still tired from all the running he did in IC.

I think he scored at least two more TDs and has at least 400 yards by now against Hankins. Heard Hankins nickname is "sieve". He lets everything through. Funny that WHO said he and Moss are still up for the Jim Thorpe Award. Funny how the media mentions the games he did well in and fails to say anything about the Purdue game. Iowa beat off writers for you!

Rough day for sure. Great players have bad games. Bell's a unique talent. Aside from that one Hankins has had a great season.

What happens when almost everyone covering Iowa grew up a Hawk fan. Theyre used to the Go Hawks! stories/mindset

What the hell?

When this is the norm with your beat writers, anything but pure fandom is considered betrayal

Yes Morehouse did but he's not on the beat now so he's full time Hawkeye homer

Morehouse is one of the nicest guys I've ever interacted with. I will not tolerate slander.

He may be a nice guy but he's also an Iowa homer

Yes, Purdy has had a great season.

He predicted Iowa to beat Gonzaga even with Iowa's whole roster being hurt

Must have been referring to their bruised egos.

My god Eickholt is awful.

I'm over the home and homes being gone, whatever but to think that Iowa has nothing to gain by playing UNI and Drake is incredibly stupid.

I get why it was done financially but I really do miss it. Wish it could have ended up being a 2-1 if necessary.

I really should hate follow this guy on Twitter just for the laughs.

Did he actually say that? Surely he can see what we all saw....Iowa got their asses handed to them.

Have you guys ever heard of Brent Blum? Total Homer for ISU.

No… which beat does he work, and for which publication? Might have to check him out.

Interesting first post "new" member.

Blum is the best. He's not a reporter but he's actually a really great play by play guy

I am going to admit. I am a Hawkeye fan. I am not going to troll though. I don't hate Iowa State. I actually cheer for them when not playing Iowa. Your non Cyclone threads are very good. But, I have a serious question. Why does CyTwins hate Iowa so much? It can't be healthy. I am 45 and have never seen someone who hates another program so bad. I really seriously have wondered that for years. Did he grow up in the Fry Era when Iowa always won? Had a bad experience at Kinnick? Always curious.

I wonder who this new poster can be. Especially when Matty got banned within the last two hours
