**2024/2025 Iowa Football Offseason & Transfer Portal Thread**

[6deuce]

All the former college players from 2021 and prior have to just want to fucking kill someone with the sort of money being thrown around.

Incredible that a bunch of Ohio State players and a legendary coach was fired and reputation ruined because they sold their gold pants medallions and got some free tattoos.

What are gold pants medallions and where can I get some?

 

[Brad Wesley]

$1.2 million

Twice as much as Cade, so that means he'll be twice as great!

I think he’s had at least one ACL tear so there’s hope!

 

[rodg12]

 

[BuffettHawk]

Is he @BBK-approved? Or is he just really tan?

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

I would like it very much if someone would modify this gif to be black and gold.

 

[Gushawk]

Approved, but only 5’9”

 

[Hawkstrat]

Lol, how much would Beathard have been in 2016 to another school? $5m?

Brad Banks would have had two years of eligibility left following his Heisman runner-up season. He would have been paid.

 

[Lee Beevers]

So extremely mediocre? Lolz!

Wrong thread for Sam Darnold posts. Lololol pwnd!!!!

Where did you see this?

 

[ChipHilton]

And walked on at Chattanooga.

I still think Kaleb Johnson would be better off taking a $3m-$5m payday from a school to play next year than going to the NFL. Not to mention endorsement money.

Ohio State or similar would give it to him. Only have to play about 5-6 real games all year and not nearly as much practice grind. His position in the 2026 NFL Draft would be the same or way better.

 

[Greg Obrecht]

I keep reading Portal Greg as Portly Greg.

Actually didn’t end up making the trip out to LA which is why it’s looking like Iowa for him.

I agree with this concept in some situations, but never at RB. The goal as a RB is to get to your second contract as fast as possible (while becoming an elite NFL back) because that is where the only chance for real money is.

I doubt Judkins (true junior so no NFL option) made more than $1.5 million and he was about as premium as a RB transfer gets. That's like 3rd round money which is a wash at best in the short term for Kaleb.

Kaleb's year to jump for NIL money was 2024, but he was hurt in 2023 so the money wouldn't have been as good.

They get to have the best, “back in my day…” stories at least.

How about we have a quarterback, throw more than 5 yards downfield to the current receivers first, just to see if they are any good?

It worked that one singular time we tried it to Dayton Howard.

 

[Gushawk]

We apparently have more facial hair fans on HaLo than I realized. Seems unbecoming for such an elite establishment.

 

[TurdBurgler]

I looked it up, and was surprised to see that Iowa had 10 passing TDs in 2024. I would have expected single digits.

9 and 7 passing tds the two years prior. Bryan ferentz dumb face . Jpeg

[Gushawk]

If there is a worse offensive coordinator in the history of the sport, I’d like to hear the case for him.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Kirk should not only be fired, but he should retroactively pay back his earnings with interest going back to 2018

 

[Will McCoy]

Cool coach alert!! Did you all wear matching shoes? Were you allowed on the bench or relegated to the second row?

Was Da Dawg higher or lower than Acie Earl on the coaching totem pole ?

 

[Monster]

I’d prefer he got rid of the goatee/fumanchu (sp?) and I bet Kirk would too. I imagine that will be addressed during onboarding.

Jfc Gus. We need a qb with a fu manchu.

 

[Alan Lomax]

No. Shit. You dipshit @Gushawk

 

[Gushawk]

Most successful P2 QBs seem to be fairly welll kempt. Look at the final 4. Hillbilly Ewers even cleaned up before leading team success.

I want this fucker to be a Josh Allen, not a Kirk Cousins.

[Hawkstrat]

We sure he isn't one of them eye-blacktards?

 

[The Dad]

You miserable faggots are going to pointy elbows the shit out of this, aren’t you? And this is coming from yours truly, a top 10 miserable faggot on this site.

 

[BngHawk]

I believe it’s only Gus who is doing the pointy elbowing

These motherfuckers would complain if they were hung with a new rope.

I was looking for the 2013-14 offseason and (lack of) transfer portal thread but couldn’t find it.

 

[Gushawk]

I had high hopes for him. Kirk squashed them like a bug by playing many small whites instead.

While a guy who made an NFL practice squad and saw the field is not something we should turn our noses up at as Iowa fans, the main thing I remember about Derrick Willies is the absolute embarrassing way Iowa fans online carried on about losing him after which he went on to catch like 5 passes at Texas Tech.

Being Hawkeye and Iggles fans, my son got an Exciting Whites t shirt for Christmas. Ol’ Kirk was ahead of his time.

 

[Monster]

Mrs Hamo thinks our new QB looks great with the fu mancho goatee or whatever and Gus needs to grow a pair.
