AIRBHG; The Complete Saga

[ThunderHawk]

Perhaps someone will bring up airbhg to Kirk one day, but that ain't gonna be me

I'll do it on a call-in show. I don't have to see him on a regular basis, and god knows it will p!$$ him off.

Still, it needs to be addressed, because it's real. Look at that freaking list.

Is Doyle to blame? Maybe he makes the RBs legs too strong and their ligaments can't handle the torque.

I've often wondered if these injuries are at least partly attributed to training methods.

Dear Kirk,

I, Ryan Baustian, offer myself to the AIRBHG. He can have both my knees, it is an honor to offer my knees, and ankles to this beast! When I am requested, paint the tower, and I will be there sir.

GO HAWKS!

Paki O'Meara was a Senior as was Jason White last year.

If you were to show this list of calamities to someone unfamiliar with UI football they would laugh and say it is impossible.
This has got to be impossible.......right?

Funny stuff.

Im sure Howe would do it.

Paki O'Meara was a Senior as was Jason White last year.

I think it is meant to refer to STARTING senior running backs. Albert Young was the last one.

[CAARHawk]

Every year in January they should do a bonfire in the Kinnick parking lot where Hawkeye fans bring something to sacrifice to AIRBHG.

I mean it will be ***cold anyway, right?

Either that, or attach knee braces, chastity belts, and gas masks on all the RBs until they graduate.

Seriously, at what point will recruits start to take notice?

Thats kind of what I was thinking. You know Biels and Dantonio are using this as ammo for potential RB recruits. I dont think I like it being blasted on ESPN.com

AIRBHG needs a fake punt! That's it. Someone posted a few days ago we have only run 1 fake punt in 13 years and it goes back to the early David Bradley era. AIRBHG wants/needs an offering like fake punt or onside kick before he lets go of his hold on the runningbacks. Iowa should line up in punt formation on the first play from scrimmage and run a fake as an offering.

Look, the overall incidents involving "AIRBHG" are nothing more than flukes or just dumb decision making by players. I don't see how this can be used against Iowa unless they linked it to some underlying issue. It's just bad luck.

I agree with you and said it was just an amazing coincidence in another thread.

That being said, you dont think Bert and Dantonio are using this set of events to their advantage?
