    Today was a good F***** Day

    Just browsing HR, reading the Twitter feed, forums, and recruiting pages, it’s just nuts to see how far we’ve come since this summer. Today surpassed expectations, somehow, even knowing we would probably land the dudes we did. We got some dawgs today, and I think we have a lethal group to work...

    Matt Hankins

    Probably done for the year as we speculated. Per KF: "Hankins will not be ready to play. Probably going to miss the bowl game as well. It's disappointing for Matt. He's had a great career here." :(

    QB Controversy

    Not in the habit of posting other blog sites on HR, but I thought Matt Reisener wrote a very good article here. Points out a lot of statistical differences in the two QB's and what each may bring to the table. I thought his take on AP was spot on, admittedly I am more of a Padilla homer than a...

    I SAID DROP IT LIKE ITS HOT!!!!

    Here is my flawless super elite expert football analysis: -Ragaini 2 drops - both bad. Horrendous 2 weeks by Nico but he may have been targeted the most today and had 2nd most WR snaps outside of Keagan. -Keagan 2 drops - one of which he was getting double teamed and a forced throw hard catch...

    Officiating Things

    I don’t normally complain about refs especially when we win but there were some absolutely trash calls and no calls just wondering if some other people felt the way I did or saw some of these things, people around me certainly did. 1. For those of you who were at the game, because I’m not sure...

    Padilla Hype Train

    Just in case anyone needs a refresher of what our new starting QB is capable of. Doesn't seem to like check-downs... :D;) Swarm 2019 Tape 2016-2017 HS tape I liked that 50 yard dime seconds into this first video. :cool:

    If Iowa is going to WIN in a B1G way in 2020?

    Scott Dochterman on an important fact: 100 There is no greater predictor for an Iowa outcome the last five years than the final tally of rushing yards. When the Hawkeyes reach 100 yards rushing, they are 45-4. When they don’t, they are 2-15. Last year, Iowa was 9-0 when it crossed that...

    Akrum Wadley, Professional Football and Iowa?

    Will the 'Rock provide another opportunity for Akrum Wadley to make it professionally in football? Coach Kirk Ferentz clearly has been consistent in how he has treated players at the University of Iowa. He also has his infamous doghouse over the years. Over the past 21 years, the best story...

    Great to be a Hawkeye ....

    Bowls and 2020 B1G Power ratings?

    Who are teams to beat in 2020, as players move to the NFL and as senior classes conclude eligibility? Can Iowa keep improving +1, as Geno Stone reflected on his three years at Iowa, thus far? And, one would hope he does return to play for his senior season at Iowa, as has been spoken too, so...

    Leadership in 2015, in 2020?

    In the past 5 seasons, the senior leadership in 2015 was outstanding. Leadership is so important at Iowa, Michigan and most Big Ten programs. Senior leadership is often vital. QB Nate Stanley was fantastic at the Holiday Bowl. Not perfect, but he wanted 10 wins and his teammates all bought...

    Anniversary: 130 years of Iowa, 150 years of College Football

    What a season of reflection, as Iowa finishes 10-3 and concludes the past five seasons with the highest win total in program history? All during the 130th anniversary of Iowa Football (90th anniversary in Kinnick, my 45th anniversary of my first game at Kinnick) and the 150th anniversary of...

    2020 Iowa Hawkeyes has me excited

    First, the glass is certainly more than half full, when from 2015 to 2019, Iowa has the strongest win total in program history. Year 22 under Kirk Ferentz. His staff really seems to be all on the same page currently. In 1998, Peyton Manning left Tennessee without a title, a national title. For...

    Other than Ohio State: does the Big Ten suck?

    At Receivers? Or, otherwise, since USC used to owned the Big Ten, back in the day? Actually, head to head, USC is better than OSU, as well. Right? Iowa at USC in San Diego on Friday night. One would take it that Michigan and Penn State receivers simply suck, compared to USC right now...

    Can he make a splash back on the field in San Diego?

    Let's not forget about his replacement. Iowa has played Michigan, Penn State and Minnesota receivers this season. Next up, USC, who are as good as any we have played outside of Alabama, Clemson or Oklahoma. Ohio State and LSU aren't shabby. Should be interesting to see how QB Nate Stanley...
