Drew Stevens

I'm very happy about his performance. Was worried after we lost Shudak. One thing Iowa does well is we find the money kickers.
Three more years, we look to be in good shape at kicker.
 
Transferring to Purdue.

Makes you wonder about the ISU game and if he had kicked. Water under the bridge now. Drew looks like a young Nate Kaeding. Look forward to watching him these next few years.

Yeah who knows. That was so crazy how that ISU game ended. Doesn't even look like Iowa has a shot, then the 2 defensive penalties and one pass and it's FG time. Tough kick for Blom or any kicker.

Stevens has been great, no doubt. But his miss against Illinois was huge at end of first half. Game was tied 6-6 at the time and the 45-yard miss would have put Iowa up 9-6 in a game Hawks lose 9-6.

Really not the fault of either Blom or Stevens that Iowa loses those games. If the offense does anything positive in either game, the misses are a non-factor. If Iowa is going to win more games this year, it's likely Stevens is going to have to make a kick that determines winning or losing.

Congrats to the freshman kicker. That’s quite the accomplishment god first year kicking for the Hawks. Congrats young man!

He keeps this up, he probably has a nice professional career to look forward to, as well.

Drew Stevens, Tory Taylor, and Drew Miller (the punter from Mediapolis) are all great examples that learning to kick the ball at a young age is not a bad idea.
