Cross over games in 2023 are Neb, Minny, IU, Purdue - no Iowa.

Warde Manuel is such a fuckup. PR disaster after PR disaster. Never learns. Just get him the fuck out ASAP.Comment

Well, I don't disagree with your assessment of Manuel but what "fuck-up" in this instance are you talking about?Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished.

Every PR crisis is handled differently, and none of them handled in any way a PR professional would advise handling them. Coverup after the Covid fuckup, too lax in the Kohl Center last year even though the Turgeon incident forecast it quite neatly, Pearson, etc. etc. Never turn a 1-day story into a 2-day story, Don Canham said. Warde just cannot learn. There is very clearly no crisis communications plan in place, which is just fucking dumb, because that guy stumbles from crisis to crisis. At some point if they can't do the right thing and fire him, the only sane move is to put a solid PR firm on retainer.Comment

I'd put them higher than that. His draft stock just took a huge hit. He can recoup that by having a Heisman year in 2023. As well, this is a tight knit group of players.As far as Corum playing for M again, I'd say the chances are about 50%.
He'll come back to complete the deal with this team of players. The goal has been surviving and getting a shot at an NC title game. They still might if the seeds stay like they are. That means a UGA rematch. WIthout Corum, beating UGA gets a lot harder - like a 10% chance down, in my estimation of 50/50 with Corum healthy.
If things play out like I think they will with M winning the BIG, then facing TCU, they have a good chance of winning that match-up. They'll advance to match-up with UGA for the NC and lose that game with Corum on the sidelines. Corum will likely come back to complete the deal in 2023 and simultaneously improve his draft stock.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished.

It’s funny seeing the social media reaction with this transfer. Iowa fans acting like they picked up some kind of superstar. McNamara is not.Originally posted by WingsFan View Post
That said, Iowa’s passing offense was so dreadful last season… I can understand being really excited to go towards any competence at the QB position.
McNamara is a fine game managing QB. Leader of men. He can certainly lead Iowa to a Big Ten West division championship with their defense. I will be rooting for Iowa anytime they don’t play M or Purdue due to this transfer.AAL 2023 - Alim McNeillComment

Do RBs still have the shortest NFL lifespan? If I were him I'd just go. Maybe he's a late-round pick, but it's time to start getting paid given the finite amount of violence an NFL player's body can absorb before they're done.
IMO McNamara is a fantastic pickup for Iowa. When you have Petras, getting McNamara probably feels like getting a superstar. I wished he'd gone out of conference.Comment

No, McNamara isn't a superstar, but he's better than anything they've got on their roster right now. Petras will be gone, and his backup entered the portal. When McNamara enrolls, he'll be the #1 quarterback on their roster.It’s funny seeing the social media reaction with this transfer. Iowa fans acting like they picked up some kind of superstar. McNamara is not.
Mac is a fine QB. He is an excellent field general, and when he passes, his throws are accurate and catchable. The current QB lineup at Iowa was none of the above. He's better by default.
I'm glad Iowa won't be on the schedule unless M meets them in Indianapolis."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"Comment

And, right on time, the "Harbaugh to the NFL" rumors begin. End of the season = start the Harbaugh to NFL stuff...
He's not going, of course,.. but never let facts get in the way of a juicy sports rumor."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"Comment

Senior DB Mike Sainristil will return in 2023 for a fifth year, even though he never red shirted. Sainristl will take advantage of the NCAA's Covid eligibility rule, and return for the 2023 season, instead of entering the NFL draft.

This is a pretty good piece on M recruiting in the face of "Harbaugh to the NFL" tallk.. I think M's lackluster recruiting has more to do with M's admin position on NIL and admissions.Originally posted by lineygoblue View Post
