    Drew Thelwell visiting April 15 (6'3 guard; ONE Year Eligibility). Camren Hunter on April 18 (Has TWO Years Eligibility)

    3 G’s will get heavy minutes Freeman and Payton heavy Wildcards will be Dembele, Tadjo and Koch We need more athleticism at F plus rebounding and defense to help Freeman so he doesn’t get in foul trouble. Dembele has an advantage, and is most likely to get nice mi utes. Pryce will get decent...

    Wouldn’t it be hilarious if CurtisJ was a motivational speaker by day and bitter Iowa fan by night 🤣

    Iowa Spring Football Depth Charts (Deacon QB2; Marco QB3) + KF Press Conference

    I actually think we win 1-2 more games going 100% wildcat instead of strip sacks and INT’s.

    Story on the Iowa QB Room. The “Offense took a Big Jump.... it’s definitely Wide Receiver-friendly.” Transfer Portal opens up again on Tues Apr 16

    He was injured from snap #1 but yeah, it’s hard to tell. He is hardly durable, luckily we have Deacon at QB2.

    Bostick to the portal

    Historically under KF, we have run a less exotic offense but relied on better execution and to some degree strategy (e.g. bend don’t break defense). We also relied on player development and diamonds in the rough. But the last few years has seen the perfect storm of declining talent, incredibly...

    Who is the greatest CBB player you have ever seen play...

    I started watching college basketball in late 70’s and that DePaul team was fun to watch with Aguirre, Garland, Watkins, Mitchem, and Bradshaw.

    So much harder to carry a team vs being part of a dream team. Tired of people who won’t look at it objectively. Bird is a good example.

    Iowa Spring Football Depth Charts (Deacon QB2; Marco QB3) + KF Press Conference

    We have never really been known for offense. That side of the ball is like a neglected rice paddy. We have not cared for it. We have let weeds infiltrate and rodents cause damage. It still produced rice but as time goes on there is less of it and the quality slowly diminishes. It’s not easy to...

    Iowa Men 17th in the B1G next year???

    Fran has had a pretty good run. Dug the program out of the ditch. Maybe I’m spoiled but my real launch point for Iowa hoops was my freshman year (1986-87) and it was unbelievable. Maybe a perfect storm. I just prefer to set extremely high goals. Maybe a bit unrealistic but I feel like we are...

    Noah Shannon attends Chicago Bears Pro Day

    The list of QB’s is mind boggling. Compare to packers and it’s maddening.

    He had no real foot “work” last season. Deacon’s feet were cemented to the turf.

    Iowa Men 17th in the B1G next year???

    So I have to either 1. Hate our program or 2. Suck Fran’s Oysters? There is some middle ground
