We are only school breaking in new qb who wasn’t team starter or starting qb elsewhere last season. As opposed to last year OSU, Michigan, MN, Maryland schools that started off the year with new starters with no starting experience.

My thoughts are if Lester is comfortable with the 2 and didn’t feel the need to get a guy in the portal was all right with me. saved us $ by having to spend 7 figures again in the portal and used elsewhere.At least our top 2 guys have been in Lester's system for a while now
Hopefully we are 3-0 and our starting QB looks good and ready to go before hitting the road to Ann Arbor.

Gronowski wasn't truly healthy in game till the Nebraska game, You have to reel in the gameplan when the 3rd level is pretty much not happening and yes now Iowa has more WR weapons and have real multiple TE threats that were not present early last Yearlast year we had as good or better OL, TE, RB, running QB. so if lester claims he has the guys NOW to run packages he could not last year, it must be based on the throws QBs are making and/or presence of 2 good receivers instead of just 1.
We're going to have a more explosive offense!?! Why? Well, Tim Lester seems to think we NOW have the horses.
I know, I know...we will have to see it to believe it.
As you will see, Lester has a package of plays that he's never been able to run UNTIL NOW.
Check this out & watch:
Interesting. Yes, we will see... But it sounds promising!
