Hawkeye trivia

[Hawkeye]

Who knows what here? I will start with a real easy one, whose numbers are retired in football? answer the question and ask yours...

 

[herky]

Nile Kinnick and Cal Jones?

 

[Clemenza]

My guess would be Kinnick and Chuck Long....maybe Alex Karras? I guess I could cheat and Google it.

 

[Clemenza]

Herky is right. Kinnick and Jones. Seems an awfull short list considering the longevity of the program.

Next question: who is the State of Iowa's all-time leader in passing yards (high school football)?

Is it still Vandenburg?

 

[Hawkeye]

college it has to still be Chuck Long, high school I thought it was some kid from a small school, almost 10,000 yards but it wasn't JVB; I think the TD record this year just fell though

 

[Clemenza]

It's JVB, believe it or not.

 

[Hawkeye]

nope, it is some other kid, not JVB, I looked it up, kid from Cherokee HS, JVB is actually 4th place:

Jones, Cherokee 9146 yards
Gavin Glenn, ADM,Adel 8314 yards
Blake Gimbel, Marshalltown 8206 yards
JVB, Keokuk 7701 yards
Jesse Ertz, Mediapolis 7317 (still playing so he will pass JVB barring injury)

Sorry Clem...so ok, another HS question, but how many Iowa high school wrestlers have gone 4 years without a defeat and what are their names? I know one of them anyway...

 

[Clemenza]

Really? I could have sworn it was JVB out of high school 4 years ago. I was never very good at trivia games.

Cael Sanderson, Dan Gable are my only two guesses.

 

[Hawkeye]

well I am not sure of the names, but I know there are 5, one name I know as I went to high school with him, Dan Knight...let's do easier trivia then.

since I asked the names of the two guys who have #'s retired, and you all got those, let me ask, what numbers are those?

 

[herky]

Sundell?

 

[HawkeyesRuleURFace]

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood, in Iowa?

 

[Hawkeye]

depends on which wood he was chucking

 

[HawkeyesRuleURFace]

What town is Micah Hyde from and what other great B1G CB came from his hometown?

 

[Hawkeye]

well mine was 24 and 62; sadly both Jones and Kinnick were killed before they were 25 (Jones was 23, Kinnick 24) I am not sure if there is anything named after Jones at Iowa though, we all know Kinnick has the stadium, but Jones was the first black man to win the Outland.

No idea on the Micah Hyde question

 

[gengljer]

What ex Hawkeye has the current Iowa state 100 meter dash record... You'll be surprised if you look it up.

 

[Hawkeye]

first though is Tim Dwight, but I am guessing not since you stated that

 

[HawkeyesRuleURFace]

What ex Hawkeye has the current Iowa state 100 meter dash record... You'll be surprised if you look it up.

Marv Cook

 

[iowajerms]

Sundell?

Sundell lost in districts his senior year.

I will guess Ironside, McGinness, Mack Reiter
