Those OB kicks were part of the plan to outgain Iowa in total yardage so our fans could pretend like we really won the game.
October 16th, 2010 at 11:45 PM ^
The catch that the cheerleader made on the second kick was quite impressive.
October 16th, 2010 at 10:23 PM ^
I heard his name a few times.
October 16th, 2010 at 10:29 PM ^
Did Sam Webb ever confirm that he was coming in this week?
October 16th, 2010 at 10:37 PM ^
I believe he stated that he secret recruit couldn't make it because of a school commitment, but that he would be taking an official in a few weeks.
October 16th, 2010 at 11:27 PM ^
he's coming for the Illinois game.
October 16th, 2010 at 10:31 PM ^
Wormlet and O'Brien would be a nice start for 2012
October 16th, 2010 at 10:37 PM ^
He didn't come this week.
October 16th, 2010 at 10:39 PM ^
Is he married?
October 16th, 2010 at 10:37 PM ^
The secret recruit rescheduled to a later date. Everyone is just speculating about who it is.
October 16th, 2010 at 10:41 PM ^
If it was so secret? And maybe the "rescheduling" thing was just a smoke screen to keep his visit under wraps? Ya know what I mean, Vern?
October 16th, 2010 at 10:40 PM ^
is a kicker
October 16th, 2010 at 10:49 PM ^
I hope he's 3 All-Big Ten linebackers.
October 17th, 2010 at 1:14 AM ^
but I'd take 2 All-Big Ten corners over the linebackers any day
October 17th, 2010 at 2:34 PM ^
I would take the LB since then we could actually stop the run and make teams 1 demensional

I'm curious how recruits at today's game would have perceived the atmosphere. After Iowa went up 14-7, the place seemed to be dead quiet until the 4th. Probably a terrible game to have recruits at. Have you ever seen a crowd as depressed as this one down 14-7 in the mid-second quarter?
October 16th, 2010 at 11:14 PM ^
I was there and I think it's because everyone could feel the momentum shift in the game. The past years have been so bad that I think everyone subconsciously checked out once they felt the momentum shift and saw the sheer amount of dumb mistakes being made. It's frustrating as all get out, but when you have a fanbase that's as much of a kicked dog as ours is right now................. Getting a good atmosphere just becomes tough.

I disagree about the crowd being dead until the fourth. The nature of football games is they build to a crescendo with periods of excitement throughout. The game wasn't very exciting in the middle, but the crowd remained engaged. I'm sure the visitors were impressed with the atmosphere. We may not have the loudest fans, but 113,000 has to impress just about any 18 year old.

Thought it was a great game to have recruits at, and we had a bunch. Sunny, perfect weather. Exciting game where the team kept fighting. Crowd was loud as hell in the 4th quarter
<br>Zettel was there, looked like he was having a ball. Recruits look like they're building some friendships and getting comfortable at M. They want to see wins so they don't have to worry about RR, but their reactions to losses always seem more level-headed than most of our fanbase
October 16th, 2010 at 11:12 PM ^
It was RoJo.
October 16th, 2010 at 11:33 PM ^
Still too soon
