As an Iowa boy retired to Texas, thanks for keeping me informed and up to date, well done!

These two gentleman .....................are the TWO BEST at reporting on our Hawkeyes.

I'm feeling old. I started listening to Iowa football radio broadcasts with Tait Cummins on WMT. I loved the Big Shoe, Ron Gander and WHO's Jim Zabel. There were smatterings of Bob Brooks and Frosty Mitchell along the way. It was hard to watch Ed this past year without assuming he had a problem with the nose candy. I doubt that behavior passed muster with our new AD. Let's hope she also points Mr. Dolphin towards retirement too.

James Morris and James Vandenberg would both be excellent on color commentary.

iowa has recruited multiple players who have had really good high school careers at quarterback (at least numbers wise) to other positions; at least some of which because they weren't pro style ... with the change to rpo, are there any players on the team who could make the move back to quarterback?

Going to miss Eddie! Wonder who they will get for a replacement...? Dolph will be next. They should try out multiple play-by-play guys for next basketball season. Then pick the heir apparent from those announcers...

Dallas clark would be my pick for a replacement.

Why does Chad have to be such an activist...
