What are the odds that Iowa takes this opportunity to claim another national title?

I know the new era hasn't been as swift a turn around as we wanted, but I've heard that the culture in the locker room continues to be something that might shock a lot of fans. "Leaders" calling for mutinies during cold practices, "leaders" partying too much, "leaders" spending too much time with the dopey smoke. I'll admit, after last year I wanted to pull the trigger on SF and Co. But after hearing what I have, from a credible source, I'm willing to give this staff as much time as they need to clean house. It may be a long haul...

Thoughts?

On a positive note, Ozigbo apparently had a peace pipe attached to his hand during the Riley years. Once Frost came in, changed his attitude and focus and we saw how his senior season turned around for him.

In season, I heard Tyrin Ferguson was going around with a petition to shorten or lighten up practices. Came from a place with pretty decent credibility as a former player and within pretty short time he was no longer with the team. This doesn’t surprise me to hear something similar.

Terrel Farley

I’m sure there are more I’m missing.  But what I’m trying to say is that every college football programs had or will have players that make mistakes.  It’s unavoidable.

Don’t forget Randy Gregory.

Sometimes walk-on’s develop to a much higher level if the stars align and they work well with a coaching staff at the college level. Wasn’t Clay Matthews originally a walk-on at USC?

No link. Just know someone very close to the situation.

Scholarship pulled as of last week. UVA is cooling off. UCLA and Wisconsin are looking into the grades and showing interest. He’s taking a visit to IWCC and most likely going there if no D-1 opportunities pan out.

I heard that Masry did well on his ACT and got to a satisfactory score on the ACT. His high school teachers are confident that he will make grades come May. Sounds like the staff isn’t real interested in rolling the dice to see if he makes it or not. Virginia D-line coach is hot on him saying that they are prepared to do whatever it takes to get him on campus.

What I figured. I find myself hanging on to every word of Tressel though.

theres a link on facebook claiming to be espn saying the tressel is hired as UNL's new head coach. All I've seen is a screenshot of the post. I'll take it to be as real as everything else on facebook. Just more smoke out on the interwebs is my thoughts.

Tom hired Miles not Shawn.

My bad.... well so there's that. I'm just bugging out of my head trying to get some grips with all of this madness.

Can anyone provide any insight in how it unfolded before Coach Miles was introduced for the basketball program? I know this won't directly reflect the events of the football coach search but, may provide an inkling of an idea.

 

 

When and where was this taken?

 

Appears to be a fundraiser for Cardinal Mooney High with no bearing here. Link has another photo with Herbstreet.

How do I go about throwing my hat into the ring for application? I mean why not?
