Because he wasn't Iowa's starter will be his response. So Wadley can't be any good if he didn't start over Daniels.....
On to Football Season
- Thread starter iahawks
- Start date
So the backups better than the starter has migrated to RBs now? Classic Iowa fan.
Yes I know Johnson was 1st team by coaches and Jewell wasn't because Johnson was better
Losing your best RB and QB is going to hurt whether you want to admit it or not. That's all I'm saying
You think this is a troll? We have lost to ISU 5 times in the last 14 years, So I totally understand Kirk can lose to a MAC or FCS level team.
Daniels was your best RB and that's why he was your starter. Going to be tough to replace him but luckily you won't play in a league that plays defense
We are loaded at RB, so this won't be a problem. We lost a 1000 yard rusher and we will replace him with a 1000 yard rusher.
Daniels was certainly not our best RB according to NFL scouts. He might have been to our coaching staff. Daniels and Wadley are two entirely different runners. Wadley could carry more in other conferences based on their style of defense, not so much in the B1G. I honestly don't know where some of you get your information from. Like arguing which team in 2007 had more talent, when clearly all one needs to do is go look at players drafted, or in the case of Daniels / Wadley, see what NFL scouts said.
Wow you must've been extra bored today. Have your guys learn how to at least give us a game in something, then we'll talk.
The starting RB who ran for over 1000 yards will most certainly be replace by a guy who will run for over 1000 yards.
Your "defensive optional league troll" is as bad as your "Jok is a mid major" troll. Weak all the way around.
The Big Ten is a defensive optional conference or at least it was last year. I guess we can agree to disagree that losing your starting RB, QB and two best defensive players will hurt you guys a lot
It's really not as much about the new quarterback as it is about the again injured wide receiver who managed to get separation. Anecdotal, but new QB's at Iowa usually overperform. There are enough returning starters to make the team likely win the games they should. But it could go either way, and they could lose early. Could lose even to Iowa State. And then everyone would come on here and say, see, ISU is better. Yeah, for one game. Just like Iowa was better than ISU in basketball. For one game at least.
No friggin wonder there are so many liberals on your politics board. Objectivity and reason are always options in college sports fans and politics, but it seems more so on here.
ISU needs to concentrate on developing an offensive line with instate recruits, running the football and playing defense. If they had done this years ago, and there is no reason they shouldn't have, they'd have had several winning seasons by now. In others words, ISU needs to copy boring Iowa on the football field. And you'd find out not only am I correct, but as boring as the football might be frm time to time, winning more than losing isn't boring at all. Or keep trying to throw the ball for 600 yds an game, and compete against Texas speed, and keep winning 3-4 games annually.

I have heard Vandenberg may not play a down this year. He needs surgery again.
CJB was one of the best quarterbacks to ever play at Iowa. Stanley is not CJB nor is he better.
