What they're saying about Iowa . . . (and Big Ten notes)

This morning, Cory Jones from Athlon Sports sent me an e-mail with a link.

Here's what he said the link contained: "we asked Big Ten coaches to give us some anonymous, candid quotes on their conference rivals, and thought you'd be interested in checking out what they had to say about Iowa."

Yes, I'm interested. Thought you would be, too.

Here is the tastiest:

"The unknown is how will the Hawkeyes respond to the January weightlifting episode that sent 13 players to the hospital? Will they rally together or will there be dissenters? That could be a very real problem. The good news is the schedule is fairly tame and Iowa very easily could enter November at 7–1."

Oh, rhabdo.

Here's the link. There's plenty more. I encourage a click.

Here's the first Big Ten Notes of the season:
