@ryanhallyall South central Iowa. 2 hours ago wind was high, getting better. It’s getting beautiful out, lol. Shouldn’t have doubted you!
English
The nicest weather in the USA today will be around Minneapolis, MN or Madison, WI. No excuse to stay in.

@JTVonderhaar I think Fran treated his players well, I give him that. They seemed to love him. Just can’t root for him for the way he treated others, that is all.
English
@TheWatchdogDBQ @mdvitt1 I’ll give you guys that. Never a fan of the way he acted towards refs
English
@JTVonderhaar @TheWatchdogDBQ I said that was the only reason? lol There are many examples! It started with me, the way he treated officials at AAU games when his kids were young.
English
@TheWatchdogDBQ @mdvitt1 Got it. I really like Gary Dolphin and think he’s great, but I don’t judge coaches by whether or not they get along with Gary Dolphin.
English
@JTVonderhaar @TheWatchdogDBQ I am sure Dolph’s distain was for no reason. You can try to defend your boy all you want but the facts are he treated many people poorly. That is enough for me to not root for him. I root for people that treat others with respect.
English
@TheWatchdogDBQ @mdvitt1 I probably wouldn’t be a huge fan of someone who openly criticized me on a hot mic. Or are we pretending that dis-like came out of nowhere
English
@RandyFeenstra Exactly, we don't want to be one of those states that people are moving too. We need to push Iowa back into the 1920's. Hey, at least we can all wave good bye to all of the many young Iowans leaving to become Californians, Illinoisians, and Minnesotans.
English
We won’t let Extreme Liberal Rob Sand turn Iowa into California, Illinois, or Minnesota.

@kapitasello Where should the teachers be? I would be in my classroom teaching those who stayed, holding those that chose to leave accountable for missed class.
English
@ImMeme0 nti-ICE protest turns into a street free-for-all. Where are the teachers?? Scary stuff 🔥
English
🚨BREAKING: Wild footage of students at Granby High School in Virginia turning an anti‑ICE protest into a full-blown school escape. No adults in sight, just one cop car and a single officer completely ignoring teens running recklessly through traffic.
What unfolds is beyond dangerous and absolutely terrifying to watch as a parent. The scene looks more like chaos than a school protest.
On top of it, this particular high school ranks in the bottom half of Virginia high schools.

@DerekBr48868735 @ByChrisMurray Derek you are missing some great games by choosing not to watch the “crap” bowl games. Give me as many college football games as you can. BTW- bowl ratings were great last year. Just because you don’t watch, there are plenty of us that do.
English
@ByChrisMurray They need to get rid of about 20 bowls. 6-6 or 7-5 teams shouldn't be rewarded for being mediocre. Nobody goes to or watches those crap games. Bowls should be a reward for a great season. 8-4 or better. Nothing less.
English
The Mountain West will send seven schools to bowls this postseason. Here are my projections on where those schools are headed and who they'll play. nevadasportsnet.com/news/reporters…

@ledoylinator @IowaPeerSupport That’s is the one that I can come up with also.Then they decided to go a different direction and look at the state of their program. What Kirk has done isn’t easy, especially at Iowa.
English
@mdvitt1 @IowaPeerSupport @chadvos @Hassel_Chris Wisconsin is maybe the only one; multiple Rose Bowls and wins in Indy. And they do it with similar resources to Iowa.
English
Will not take this back. Will not apologize for it. I love this team. They play their asses off and do it the right way. In position to win all 4 games against ranked teams — just didn’t. It’s a fine line. But I haven’t been this emotionally invested in Iowa fb in a long time.
Chris Hassel@Hassel_Chris
This is my favorite Iowa team since ‘09
English
@chadvos @IowaPeerSupport @Hassel_Chris Give me some head coaches that have done better the last 10 years, especially with a similar recruiting base?
English
@mdvitt1 @IowaPeerSupport @Hassel_Chris I just want to try to change, evolve, not have you son make a fool of himself as the OC, modernize something. It isn’t working. So anyone trying to improve. I want that.
English
@IowaPeerSupport @chadvos @Hassel_Chris I will rephrase- what programs would you trade places with the last 10 years that are not blue- bloods?
English
@mdvitt1 @chadvos @Hassel_Chris I’d have to check resources and I guess how do define better. For kicks I looked up how many times Iowa would have made the 12 team playoff the last 10 years. Its 1. Here’s the list.
English
@chadvos @Hassel_Chris Over the last 10 years what program what program with equal resources has done better than Iowa?
English
@Hassel_Chris I never say bad things about the players. Iowa turns out great players who turn pro. But if you say team you include the coaches. Kirk has over stayed his welcome by 10 years. Make it stop.
English
@KetamineHawkeye Definitely ready to move on. A coach that puts more emphasis on passing than just relying on the run. Even Saban has said KF’s offensive style is dated, he said himself he needed to change when college fb was heading in to a more spread/pass offense so he wouldn’t be left behind
English
If you’re a believer that we should move away from Kirk. I do not consider you a serious person or fan and won’t listen to anything you have to say.
English
@Sarcasm_n_logic @keithmurphy Give me a program, with equal resources that you would have to have traded places with the last 10 years? Also, who this great coach you think would do better?
English
@keithmurphy It’s been 4 years since we’ve beaten a ranked team.
I think the fatigue others are feeling is that lack of big game performance.
It was an exciting game, as was Indiana.
People just want a coach that’ll put us in a better position to win these games.
English
I get it, but remember 85% of teams didn’t still have CFP possibility con line today. It could be much worse and that was an exciting game, right?
Sleep on it. 🤝
𓃬@blaugranahawk
@keithmurphy Year after year after year after year after year. I’m tired, Keef.

@kdotv_ @th_wright @StubHub @TeamStubHub I purchase 45 yd line seats, row 40 for the Iowa game Saturday. I get a message that they can’t fill that order and “upgrade” us with 5 yard line, row 60 seats. How can they get away with this?! Never using them again!
English
@th_wright @StubHub @TeamStubHub I’m stuck right now arguing with them for 2 days over tickets that never made it to my account. They are soon gonna tell me the tickets around available and send me comparable options, which i guarantee aren’t floor seats like i originally bought.
English
Never use @StubHub @TeamStubHub - Bought tickets 8 days ago. Don’t have them. Show in 51 minutes and they have done exactly nothing. Just thought you all would like to know.
