Hawkeyes Middle of the Salary Pack
The Iowa football program finds itself in the middle of the Big Ten pack as it relates to what it pays its assistant football coaches.
The Detroit Free Press published a list of salaries and Iowa ranks 5th out of 10 teams. Northwestern and Penn State are not required to publish this information as Northwestern is private and Penn State’s state laws support it.

Iowa HC Kirk Ferentz was called "Fetus-Head" by high school teammates.
Did you ever have a nickname in high school or college that embarrassed you? One so bad you would spend nights awake in bed plotting the deaths of every single person that called to that name? One where you has a specific cruel and torturous end for the person that came up with the name? One that if you had a parent that called you by that name, you planned to cut off contact with...

Three Hawkeye Things for May 10th
Pat Harty writes an interesting story on Brad Banks in Hawk Central today. Banks had one shining moment, or one great season…for that 2002 campaign and improbably Heisman runner up finish, he’s an Iowa legend forever. If you were too young to recall that season, give this a read and familiarize yourself with a player who was one of the most fun to watch in Iowa history and...

BTN in Prime Time; No Hawkeyes
First, here is the release from the Big Ten related to Prime Time games on the BTN this fall…I have some thoughts below it:
CHICAGO – BTN will televise 12 primetime games during the 2013 college football season, the most in network history. Five games feature a pre-season top-25 Big Ten team, while three of the 12 matchups feature games versus teams from the SEC, ACC and Pac...

Iowa Hawkeyes’ new but weird sleeved jerseys
Via Black Heart Gold
You can probably tell by now that these are not really awesome. In fact they are quite ugly, but I do think the design is clever and succeeds in the pizazz Nike was looking for. These are just a prototype right now and they are planning to rock these in October. Are you a fan of the new sleeved look?
“What you are looking at is a prototype, of course...
Alford's UCLA hire opens barely closed wounds at Iowa
The Steve Alford era at Iowa - it's a touchy subject for any Hawkeye fan for things that happened on and off the court in Iowa City and a lot of it surrounds a dip in play from what was happening under Dr. Tom Davis, where winning NCAA tournament games were the norm, rather than the exception.
Usually that's where the ire stops and after time fans in general can...

Iowa quarterback Jake Rudock was named the co-front-runner alongside Cody Sokol to replace James Vandenberg in Kirk Ferentz’s pre-spring depth chart last week, and he believes it’ll stay that way heading into the regular season.
Rudock didn’t see a single snap as a redshirt freshman in 2012, but he’s ready to prove that he can lead the Hawkeyes offense for the next several...
Former Iowa Hawkeyes Cheerleader, Miss Iowa ’12, into fitness modeling (pics)
The Iowa Hawkeyes have had a mediocre season of college basketball. Definitely a down year by their usual standards. No one’s expecting them to do much in college football next fall because this year was a disaster. They have some nice looking cheerleaders though. And one Iowa Hawkeyes cheerleader in particular has big goal. Iowa Hawkeyes cheerleader Rebecca Hodge, who’s becoming...
