Why is Kinnick Stadium considered historic?

All in the eye of the beholder. One man's lack of legroom is another man's reason to stand more and yell. My understanding is the north end zone project will provide more room for butts in that part of the stadium so you will have a better experience the next time you come to Kinnck
I'm not Yeah Buddy but losing Higdon on signing day did hurt I thought. He seems like a quality back and would fit in with Iowa's zone running game. Iowa ended up signing a guy from Alabama no one had heard of and he made it like one semester or year on campus.
Losing Higdon wasn't good, but losing Gordon was way worse imo.
Yes you are going deep into the depths of recruiting misses. I've tried to block that one out of my mind.
According to one of your other Hawkeye fans here recruiting misses like Higdon or Gordon aren't a big deal because you can just replace them with another 2 star recruit
He also said missing out on Heinrich was no big deal and he wasn't a top target for you guys so if you want to keep defending him go for it
Not defending him, you are just being an idiot and putting words in his mouth.
Have you been following along? He has said multiple times Iowa doesn't miss on recruits that don't come to Iowa City
Eventually where you are involved CyTwins I lose track of what the original point being debated is/was. It is a gift of sorts you have that I've never seen before. I mean that. I acknowledged recruiting misses matter. You point to another Hawk fans who says they aren't. What is it you expect us to say to that? People have different opinions, that's why these boards exist.
This board actually exists for Cyclone fans.
#1 vs #2 was pretty historic. Lots of Heisman winners have played there.
Happens every year. It’s part of recruiting. I don’t think it hurt them too much. The most recent RB ran for over 1000 yards in each of the last two seasons.

The reason it’s historic is simple. They continue to use the same stadium that was used during 19 consecutive losing seasons.
Historic Kinnick Stadium is one of the best atmospheres in all of college football; acccording to Kirk Herbstreit, it is one of the five best, right along with Penn State’s White Out, night games at LSU, etc. And just think, that is before the North Endzone renovation that is going to make Kinnick even louder.
You are entitled to your opinion. Herbstreit has called games at both stadiums and disagrees.
