Here's what I'm hoping for go 12-0, meet the East Champ, then play a great game. Win we're in the CFP, make it a nail biter in losing, we go to the Rose Bowl. The thing we can't do is get dominated.
I don't remember Tanner Morgan distributing the ball around as well as he did against MSU. Is it possible that, not having his go to receiver, is forcing him to be a better Quarterback?
I believe that, NAIA schools only count years you played, there is no clock per se. If Jones didn't play elsewhere he could have 2 maybe 3 years of NAIA eligibility.
I completely agree with this, by the end of the season, Iowa's defense will be tired and worn down. That's a formula for injuries, even without injuries, it will show in their performance.
I agree with this! They already have one loss, they are unlikely to win against OSU and Michigan, throw in us and PSU as 50/50, it's easy to see an 8-4 or 7-5 record.
It's probably more like, you're fired effective Oct 2, we will suspend you until that date. If you accept firing now, we'll kick in a sweetener, to make it worth your while.
What ever TJ's problems are with Brady, there are teams, in need of a 3rd wide receiver option. If they can't fill that need in the draft a trade would be possible for a mid round draft pick. Absent a trade if he's cut some team will pick him up.
Recruiting matters, but it's only one factor, retention, player development, and transfers in, also matter. Rating rosters by recruiting average is overly simplistic.
