IOWA IS NOW OFFICIALLY A PROGRAM

Yes, after years of the Iowa Hawkeyes football team teetering on the edge of greatness, it’s abundantly clear that Kirk Ferentz’s crew has finally broken the rock–the Hawks now have off-the-field issues just like everybody else. Two wide receivers using boosted credit cards, and a backup QB who no-shows for a DUI hearing. Ausgezeichnet!

How does this bode for the season? Arvell Nelson wasn’t likely to see much playing time, but Dominique Douglas saw significant playing time last season, and Anthony Bowman was expected to contribute as well. What if they’re both lost for the season?

I’m not changing my predictions. This team was always going to be be carried by its defense this year, and the key to whatever offensive success the Hawks find was going to be the running game anyway.

It’s just nice for us Hawkeye fans that we can finally count our team among the nation’s elite. These sorts of problems don’t happen just anywhere, people!
