George Kittle and Sam LaPorta will likely* be the starting tight ends this Sunday for the NFC championship game. I'm guessing Iowa will be mentioned more than once based on George and Sam's performances so far in this postseason and coincidentally coming from the same college. Do you think the athletic department could have used this opportunity to shine some light on the program by announcing the new offensive coordinator hire in the days prior to the game? Would such an announcement have any impact on recruiting? Would it be more wise to hold off until after the game?
Just curious if others think Iowa could try to maximize the opportunity in their favor. Of course, it's possible Iowa still doesn't have a new OC ready for announcement, but if they do, it seems like the perfect time to make the announcement to the public.
*as of Wednesday Jan 24, LaPorta is listed as questionable.
