Doc Saturday explains how Cyrus Kouandjio would have signed with Iowa were it not for Rhabdogate and Iowa City being a small Midwestern town that's cold as fuck in the winter.

Black Heart Gold Pants Ex-Hawkeye Robinson to team: "I want you back."

Former running back claims team is all he ever wanted, needed.

MOON BASE 1 -- On Monday, a forlorn Adam Robinson publicly apologized for his off-field transgressions at the end of last season, which included poor academic performance and a Dec. 27th arrest for possession of marijuana, saying he was ready to give things another chance if Iowa was.

Using giant cranes and hot air balloons to uproot the town of State College, Pennsylvania, and relocate it 30 miles northwest of Omaha.

"We realized the best answer was a geographic East-West split, which would preserve many of our conference's historic rivalries," Delany said during a phone interview Sunday. "But since we also wanted to maintain competitive balance, it only made sense to move State College to a more convenient location."

Following the conclusion of Penn State's football season, a crew of 700 workers will begin carving up the campus and readying sections to be airlifted 1,060 miles west, where it will be re-assembled near the town of Fremont, Neb.

"Those guys at Penn State have been complaining forever about not having a geographic conference rival," Delany added. "Well, now they'll have a great one in Nebraska!"

When questioned, Delany denied rubbing his hands together and muttering, "Money money money..."
