Iowa TE Johnny Pascuzzi is in the NCAA Transfer Portal

[iowaathletes]

....a source tells 247Sports. He appeared in 11 games this past season.

Bummer but between Lachey and Ostrenga (and the younger TEs) and WR getting more emphasis this year, I’m guessing the targets weren’t going to be significant for him this year. And one closer to 85.

Wish him all the best!

When does the portal close?

 

[NCHawkeye24]

I am pretty sure you had to declare today.

 

[iowaathletes]

Midnight it closes.

Where are we at numbers wise now?

He was a walk on

How many are we still over?

Some of them.
For sure.

 

[Pawkhawk1]

Sorry
I'm just being an ass.
I think we are still 3 over

 

[mstrub]

How many are we still over?

We are two over (unless there have been medical retirements not announced yet)

Then start kicking people out. Can we boot Budmayr and claim it as a roster spot?

I agree ... it is a bummer.

However, Ortwerth is a guy who will likely be a "riser." That's on top of already having 2 studs in Lachey and Ostrenga.

Some of these young men come to a P5 school or Iowa that is TEnd U and after a year or 2 they think they wont be a starter but could be a starter at another school. He has had very good coaching so good luck to him

Hoffman is likely to be TE3 by midseason, he’s the next stud.

I’m gonna miss KF calling him Johnny Jacuzzi! 😀

Swarm stepping up I suspect

 

[squeezebox]

he came on as a PWO, I am assuming he isn't on ship?

Not anymore!🤪

[Underscore2]

Cool.

Has he reviewed the Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes movie?

If so, I am glad my money is going to good things!

 

[Hawkeye Marching Band]

I think that's right. My best guess is he was hoping to get a ship elsewhere when the Hawks had none available for him, even after earning some PT.
