All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Great game for Hawkeyes yesterday.
I had the pleasure of watching the early81'-85s hawkeyes. I puked the day the bills drafted him.
I love the Bills but I would like to see the Hawkeyes under frentz for another 10 years. Ferentezs biggest strentgh the o-line.

I would hate to see Ferentz leave..... only one place would I deem it acceptable. Only silver lining is that Bobby Stoops only other job he would consider would be U of I.

Cross out Tressel. He never did suspend Clarett, he just made it a big distraction forhis team by being hush hush about it. Whatg would he do if a Bills star murdered someone? Jus t wait until the leage handed out the suspension?
Bet me Ferentz would have benched Clarrett before the AD ever had a chance to get hishands on him. That is what I love about him. ALL team ALL of the time. No one is bigger and all parts are equal.

I posted on another thread, but I agree. Kirk Ferentz would be a great choice for the Bills.
A. Head coaching experience at big college program
B. Assistant Head coach and line coach in NFL
C. His teams emphasize smart, efficient play. Iowa teams force the other team to earn their wins.
D. Under 50 and not a re-tread.
I really liked what Iowa did this weekend against Michigan. I will definitely be watching every Iowa game that I can from now on. Ferentz WILL be in the NFL next year. Hopefully with the Bills.

Hey chaplain:
I had the distinct NON-pleasure of watching them from 77-80. However, I had the pleasure of hearing Bob Cummings (the head coach) on his show refer the the Hawks as "the best 0-7 team in the nation". LMAO!!!!!
Right after I left and went off to grad school in Louisiana, Hayden came in, and in two years the Hawks were in the Rose Bowl!!!!
I still remember the game against Michigan State (last game of 81 season) michigan had to upset Ohio State at OSU, and we to win . The stands in nile kinnick were crazy, in the fourth qurater they kept announcing the Mich OSU score, Mich lead was getting bigger. People were going crazy, with 2 mins left they announced the final of michigan osu final. mich. did it for us. We had an insurmountal lead over msu. Sheer Joy and celebration for the two remaining minutes of the game. The gun went off and the whole stadium took to the field. It was a flood of black and gold. The players and fans stayed on the field celebrating for what seemed an eternity. It rocked!
Go Hawkeyes!!!!
