    AP top 25 hawks come in at #22

    About where I thought we'd come in at. Let's Go! Iowa State, Nebraska and Wisconsin with zero votes, unranked

    QB Battle: Jeremy Hecklinski appears to have passed Hank Brown on the Depth Chart. QB was NOT a Transfer Portal Priority per KF on Dec 18

    IMO Kirk knows that Hecklinski is clearly better. However, he'll continue coach speak to the media saying it's close for a couple of reason 1) to not alert NIU as to who they may see as the QB 2) to keep the QB's pushing each other through camp 3) to keep Hank Brown fully invested and working...

    Phil Parker: “I don’t know if I want to sit there & play (against) our offense every week.”

    As Duddy mentioned earlier not sure if we have the dudes up front to stop the run, which is crucial in our conference

    Kids day insights.

    Even if they have be comparable in practice. Showing out when it matters and when the lights are bright matters. Some guys just don't have it when it counts and Hecklinski showed today he can perform when it matters. This needs to be considered.

    Phil Parker: “I don’t know if I want to sit there & play (against) our offense every week.”

    We are loaded at LB. Worried about the rest of the defense. Will not be able to stop the run

    Phil Parker: “I don’t know if I want to sit there & play (against) our offense every week.”

    We could have the best offense in 10+ years and the worst defense we've had in 10+ years. There will be a couple of games this year where the offense needs to bail out the defense

    Ben Kueter returning in 2026

    Wild that a kid would choose wrestling over football. Leaving lots of money on the table

    It's so obvious Heck is the better option. Brown just doesn't have what it takes when the lights are shining.

    Thomas Meyer is my breakout player of the year. Will be more attention on DJ, giving Meyer lots of opportunities

    Iowa -11.5 vs Iowa State

    Didn't Washington State give up 59 points to North Texas last year?

    If Tavion Banks returns in 2026-27, we would have 1 Open Roster Spot (14 players are officially signed)

    Banks is not getting 7 Figures are you crazy?! Decent player but he's a dime a dozen tons of guys out there that can do what he does

    August camp time, maybe some news tidbits will trickle in

    D line is weakest unit on the team heading into the year going to need a big year from Iose

    August camp time, maybe some news tidbits will trickle in

    Really hoping QB comp doesn't go into the season, I want Hecklinski purely because I think he's more mobile and has greater play making ability

    Iowa uniform patch sponser

    I'd vote for John Deere, Principal or Casey's. However, must make the patch blend in with the uniform. Nothing worse than a patch that doesn't match.

    Fleck is a clown!
