It’s Media Day at Iowa where the Hawkeye football team takes lofty expectations heading into the season.
The offense hopes to make major strides with Michigan transfer Cade McNamara at quarterback. Iowa finished 130th out of 131 teams nationally in total offense.
That’s Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz who says McNamara has been a good fit.
The Hawkeyes have added some transfer receivers in the hopes of getting more explosive. Kaleb Brown is from Ohio State and Seth Anderson is from Charleston Southern.
After an 8-5 record in 2022 junior corner Cooper DeJean says the Hawkeyes have high hopes.
DeJean set an Iowa record by returning three interceptions for touchdowns last season. He also averaged more than 16 yards per punt return.
Iowa’s defense scored six touchdowns last season.
That’s Iowa linebacker Jay Higgins. The Hawkeyes were picked to finish second in the west division in the preseason poll.
Iowa opens at home on September second against Utah State.
