Where is "Goldteam"?

Fleck is going to finish with a higher rated recruiting class than the great Iowa in his first year. Explanation please?
Pretty simple, you guys will have more spots to fill replacing all your rapists.
According to rivals, our ranking per player is already better ;).

Iowa wins games on the field not in recruiting rankings. Explain why tinysota fans can’t grasp this?
 
Fleck is a complete cornball goof, can't believe anybody can imagine him standing there holding a National Championship trophy while jumping up and down like a two year old high on sugar.
 
Oh I don't know maybe the following couple odd ball plays: Iowa receiver drops a long pass right in his hands which bounces into a goofer's hands for an "interception", Iowa's tight end has a big play only to be called back on a bogus holding call as said tight end was just making a block at line of scrimmage before flaring out for the pass, and right before half Iowa running back Butler "fumbles" as Iowa is going in for a score or at least a field goal. This game had a 27 to 7 feel to it.

We all see those things. I could have sworn Tyler Johnson dropped one right in his hands which was going for huge yards. our qb overthrew a 6'10" TE open in the end zone from the 5 yard line, despite the stupidity of the call when needing half a yard. We ran it right down the field the next time and from the 8 on first down, threw a pick. We were inside the 10 twice and came up empty. While you were screwing up, we weren't I'm sure.

I didn't see the domination. We had the same number of first downs and you outgained the gophers by 30 yards. A 27-7 feel to it! LMAO

You are 2-3 in the big 10, right where your recruiting rankings suggest.

We are close to last and had the worst recruiting classes in the big 10 recently.

Fleck is going to try to change that, but he lost last night and he's 1-4 so it's over.
 
You're trying too hard. And you probably need a new hobby.

I've read a total of zero posts from Iowa fans on here claiming Iowa is an elite program. A hell of a lot better than Minnesota, no doubt, winning 5 of the last 6, but certainly no claims of greatness.

Again, a new hobby would probably be more beneficial for you than making an ass of yourself on an Iowa message board.

If I've heard it once, I've heard it 100 times. The gophers goal should be to reach Iowa. If that's the goal.....LMAO
 
I certainly thinking adding “LMAO” to every post strengthens your argument. Bet you weren’t laughing your ass off as we carried that trophy off the field last night. LMAO

Did you see a 27-7 game last night too, LMAO?

This is why I hate Iowa. Seeing a 27-7! WTF?

No one was laughing their ass last night! Go to your game thread if you think otherwise. Most of you seemed embarrassed. Why, I don't know, maybe it's because of the 27-7 feel to it.

Outside of Illinois and Rutgers, there aren't too many teams in the B1G that reaching them wouldn't be marked improvement for the Gophers.

Honestly, I have no idea WTF you're talking about. Yeah, I'm sure you've talked to hundreds of Iowa fans who've told you Iowa is as good as Ohio State and Alabama and blah blah blah. I believe you. :rolleyes:

Like I said, you need a new hobby.

This is a better post. Keep them short like this. Maybe even a little shorter. People have lives you know, can’t waste valuable minutes reading your novels on every post.

Lol, dude...seriously.

From now on, just for you, if I find I've written more than a couple paragraphs, I will end it with: "Sorry so long, Rocky Mountain Hawk, didn't have time to make it shorter." :p

Your response is so predictable. In fact, in my initial post I was going to state that the above would be your comeback. Big difference in Minny "mistakes" was either lack of execution (your big dorky tight end deciding not to run a complete pass route) or Iowa causing the pick by CB J. Johnson getting his hand on the pass to T. Johnson, whereas the Iowa "screw ups" as you rightfully call them were just that, i.e., oddities that weren't caused by MN defense etc., hence my belief that Iowa is much better than the final 17 to 10 score indicated over your gophers. I don't give two shits if you don't concur (or follow me); however, I do know that Minny hasn't won vs Iowa (particularly in Kinnick) for a long, long time, which won't be changing in the near term.

Minnesota should concentrate on the tiers of success. Worry about being better than Rutgers, Maryland and Indiana. Then you can jump up to the Iowa's of the world. You pass them then you get Michigan State and Michigan.

Next Wisconsin, Penn State and Ohio State.

How about I put it another way for you goldy - If Iowa and Minny played 10 times (based on current rosters) on a neutral site...Iowa would win at least 75% of the time. Do you not agree?

Are you stupid or just plain jealous

Fleck has recruited 20 verbal commitments all 3 star or below for an average Rival rating of 2.67.

Iowa currently has 13 verbal commits one four star and an average rival rating of 3.11.

If quantity was what you base your recruiting class on you might have a case but recruiting is based on quality and Fleck is obviously just filling holes.

Your numbers are off sir.

Yes, I agree. What does that have to do with last night's game being pretty much even?

It wasn't that even...so last night's game was in the 25% where Minny had a chance, otherwise Iowa wins big the other 75% of the time.
 

Yeah my numbers were off we are at 3.0 and you now have 24 commits at 2.88 which means you are probably out of scholarships to offer and will not be moving up. Again Quality vs Quantity


An if you gave some time to blow look
up the head to head recruiting battles between Iowa vs Minnesota where both teams had offered IOWA wins by a margin of 6-1. So much for uour outrecruiting theory

By the way does Fleck offer each recruit the chance to bang a coed free of charge on their recruiting visit like what they offered last year.?
66
Iowa
13 0 1 11 3 955
30
Minnesota
24 0 0 21 2.88 1380

Exactly. There's no possible way Minnesota can replicate Iowa's success the last 30 years. A Northwestern-level success would be much more attainable for the Gophers. Great point.

Isn't your douche bag coach like 1/6 against Ferentz for recruits over the last two years?
Plumb - Iowa
Ince - Iowa
Evans - Iowa
Johnson - Iowa
Shannon - Iowa
Henderson - Minn

And pretty sure Iowa has a higher average player rating than MN right now anyway. So... congrats on having more lower rated guys?

Come on Hawk fans cut the goofer fan some slack. He's like those Husker fans who can't accept who they are. At least a large portion of Husker fans can actually remember when they were relevant. Minnehaha hasn't been relevant since the early 60's. Keep up your enthusiastic hate of Iowa and internet message board trolling though gold, seems like a great way to go through life.
 
I'm right here. That's the Ferentz team I know. Fleck has his work cut out to reach that level. LMAO
Considering 90% of the players that were out there winning will be here next year and years to come, I think Fleck does in fact have his work cut out for him. Other than LB every position will be better next year because pretty much everybody is returning.
Fleck sure loves himself some Fleck. Pretty opposite personalities....Fleck is a look at me guy and KF is a look at my players type of guy. Personally I will take the latter of the two, but if you like an extra cheerleader on the sideline too each your their own I suppose

I just looked at the gophers easy schedule and they could easily go 4-8 this year. What a piss poor program. Goldteam is right when he said that we should be embarrassed by only winning 17-10.

Don't worry, you know a fan knows their team sucks if they start comparing recruiting rankings instead of results on the field.
 
Did you see a 27-7 game last night too, LMAO?

This is why I hate Iowa. Seeing a 27-7! WTF?
Jealousy is love and hate at the same time......I would hate us too if I wish I was us. When was the last time Minny won at Kinnick- it wasn't in the century that is for sure. I believe in this century Iowa is 12-5 against Minny and pretty sure last night was 3 in a row
 
Actually the rent comes due when Fleck gets his own players in here. I like his chances. If we look like that iowa team out there last it night in years 3 and 4, I will not be happy!

By the way, I haven't been around much after you lost your 3rd game. It seemed like piling on despite Iowa's usual greatness. LMAO


Prepare to not be happy.

Well, Iowa actually won 27 to 7.
