James Daniels injury?
- Thread starter JRHawk2003
- Start date
Heard Ferentz sprained his jaw on bubbleicious and is questionable.
Edited: his status has now been changed to doubtful

You must not have watched ISU vs UNI. Iowa should curb stomp the Clones with or without Daniels.
Because Iowa NEVER EVER cycles the second team guys in with the first team guys during practice, right?
They actually played the run well until they got worn down. It was their offense that was the problem but Iowas defense was pretty bad the first game as well
UNI an FCS school averaged 4 yards per carry and ran 252 yards on them. What planet are you from again?
OK; I'm going to counter that thinking by saying that
I am NOT nervous, at all, about this Saturday.
GO HAWKS
Scrap the Render bio. LeGrand is going to start. Only 280 (Render 306). Interesting move http://www.hawkeyesports.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=6077
I think we'll be fine. Welsh practiced there and as said above, between camp rotations and NW, etc last year we are fairly flexible there. Talked with an ISU super fan at work and he says the same thing about the first team D-line being above average but they are prone to wear down and very little depth.
That is VERY interesting. Render probably saw action in every game last year, LeGrand ZERO.
Yeah, got to trust the coaches I guess. But you're right, as a RS F Render played in every game, and has the size advantage over LeGrand who basically have never played...
4 yards a carry isn't good. And like I said they did a lot better before they got worn down bc they were on the field so much. Most of the yards came from the QB
I'm guessing LeGrand has come a long ways or ISU is so bad they don't mind getting him some meaningful snaps.
Actually, Ferentz to Right Tackle and everyone just shifts to the left. That's what I heard.
Or maybe they just really like him at guard. Or LeGrand made strides...Who knows?
You're right--UNI never has any good ball carriers who could play against D1 opponents.

Iowa is ripe for a take down. Hawks not a top 10 team at this point by any stretch, based on last week. Plus it's way too easy to dismiss ISU based on a comedy of errors last week that probably won't be repeated. As someone else pointed out, we've seen this movie before. One disrespected team has nothing to lose and a lot to prove with their new coach. The other plays cautious ball, probably hasn't really found itself just yet, and is missing two key players. Hawks need to play a very clean game if they expect to win.
This is the kind of crap thinking I can't stand!
Stop all the cautious error free football talk and simply take your better talent on both sides of the ball and ram it down Cyclowns throat! We consistently play down to these losers every season and I for one am sick of it!
Go out and be aggressive and blow them off the field early! That puts an end to any cyclown thinking that they can pull an upset.
Good lord. If the difference in this game is the starting center and DE then Iowa really is the fake ID of college football.
The person it sucks the most for is James himself. I feel really bad for a really good kid. He's missing not just one or two of his own games, but one or two of the only games he gets to play, starting, opening holes for his big brother. Get better, James - and stay healthy, LeShun.
Or, maybe Iowa improves from last week, and shows some character in the process. We'll see.
No way - Ike doesn't play G and Ferentz is a C -my guess Sean to G and the #6 (whoever that is - I hear Render) to G
This. Since the first guy is going off one game, a game where Iowa score 45 and really won pretty easily, why are you so afraid that ISU has made so many strides in week 1 to 2? Don't you think Iowa should be better too? I'd take out experienced coaching staff over 37 year old campbell any day
David, the fact that they were worn by UNI probably doesn't say much for them. If UNI wore them down...
As with almost every Hawkeye season I can remember, but I'm only 67, this year will once again boil down to how healthy we can stay. Last year we had some injuries, but people really stepped up when someone went down. I have to believe we have enough talent in our offensive line back ups to get the job done against ISU. We would have all been in more of a panic if we'd known Josey would not be available last week. If we were dealing with the loss of a tackle or another DE it would be much more of a concern.
This sucks for James, but if we can't figure out someone to take his place either at guard or center we're not going anyplace this year anyway.
