Due to injury or other reasons?
If I can find the tweet I will but it was from an Iowa fan saying if what he's hearing is true, Keegan won't be playing for Iowa this year. That's all that I know. I have no idea if it's health related, disciplinary related or what.

There's only 1 thing Gary Barta is beholden to more than Kirk Ferentz. Donors. When donors start making noise, the program bends. This is why KF released that weird January depth chart after the bowl game back when there was so much noise about Beathard needing to be the starter over Rudock. Hadn't ever been done before, hasn't been done since. They did it to appease the donors. There's zero chance donors would stand for BF being the next HC.
They also did it to appease Beathard's dad. He was vocal about CJ potentially transferring. What's the deal with Hawkeye dads getting so much attention?

Forget TE U or Punter U...Iowa is Dad U!

That'd be a significant loss. This offense is just a mess

Not a bad job by the OP. My only big disagreement is defensive back. If there's cracks I'm not seeing it. A safety walk-on is not unusual for an Iowa defense at all. I think many Iowa fans were pleasantly suprised with Schulte Saturday. It was amazing to see a guy that small hit that violently.
With Jermari Harris back a CB room of Moss, Robert's, Harris, and Dejean who plays all over is as good as probably any team you'll play this year
Merriweather got burned for a potential backbreaker on a pretty basic double move. Even a halfway decent throw changes things early on, seeing as how it likely could have been the game's only TD.

The whole secrecy thing with KJ has been really weird. I doubt he ever plays another snap for Iowa. Hope I’m wrong, but there seems to be a lot of smoke.

Oh really?? Wow I wonder what could've happened.

Obviously not hoping/implying it's legal issues related...but it has hints of DJK 2.0
People are going to have questions, but they may be trying to cut ties and move on as quietly as possible, perhaps.

Not exactly sure.
Those complaining about our lack of pass rush last Saturday………I’m not sure what you wanted. We gave up 10 points and showed nothing. We’re we supposed to show most of our blitz packages and other intricacies in order to pitch a shut out? This is how the season works, you sit on stuff you don’t need to show in games that you have control of. We’re we supposed to roll out who our back/receiver will be that does our trick passes so we could score a couple more touchdowns?

Think for a second folks.

What time does a person need to show up to find a spot in the free parking lots? The 1-2 mile walk doesn’t bother me, we did that in Norman last year.

Also, are open containers and small gas’s grills allowed in finkbine or Hancher? Would like to cook a couple brats/burgers for the crew while have a beer or two.

What a mess of an interview [from March].

Petras was a 4 star recruit out of high school, so I'm pretty sure the talent is there. I've heard, however, that what he's lacking is confidence.

I watched highlights from Iowa's game yesterday and I was blown away by how loud the booing was in Kinnick. If Petras really is lacking confidence, he has to be at rock bottom right now.
the thing is, I think Padilla is actually worse too

I like that we also have a qb from Iowa.....he understands this rivalry....I feel like we've been lacking that for a while now
