Big Ten coaches comment on early signing proposal

Sports

October 12th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

UNDATED (AP) — Big Ten coaches appear to be largely in favor of last week’s proposals by the Division I council that would create early signing periods in June and December, instead of in February. Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says that to him, “it makes perfect sense.”

At least two coaches, Maryland’s DJ Durkin and Ash, though, don’t want an early signing period earlier than December. Ash says he doesn’t think it’s a “good path.”

 

Resilient Hawkeyes remain in Big Ten contention

Sports

October 12th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa hasn’t looked like a Big Ten title contender in weeks. Yet with the season halfway over, that’s exactly what the Hawkeyes are. Iowa (4-2, 2-1 Big Ten) slogged its way through the first half of 2016, racking up ugly victories with a pair of defeats that were even uglier. But the Hawkeyes have already won twice on the road in league play, and West division favorites Wisconsin and Nebraska still have to play in Iowa City.

Iowa will look to extend the nation’s third-longest road winning streak to nine games with a visit to Purdue (3-2, 1-1) this weekend.
