Pre spring depth chart released

Yeah, as with all spring depth charts (and, in many instances, regular season as well) just take it with a grain of salt because I'd be shocked if Brian Allen wasn't in the 2-deeps at DE.

I am excited to see how Joseph Anderson developes, though. I like the tall and super athletic DE types for pass rush situations.

Allen always impressed me more than pittman but i trust the coaches.

Brian had to have 2 surgeries after the last season. That is likely why he isn’t in the 2 deeps currently but I expect he will be by next fall.
 
Absolute nothing burger for todays presser, Gronk will be maybe throwing lightly, but progress isn't quick on that injury recovery. Brian Allen has multiple surgeries as mentioned above, oh and apparently Petras is back in the building....lol
 
It was interesting to see Hayden Large and James Resar still on the roster in the spring press release. I thought Large was out of eligibility. Resar is still listed as a WR. I wonder if he didn't get any offers as a QB in the portal and decided to give it another shot at Iowa as a WR.

Good for Spencer if he is. Did he throw at our pro day?
 
I'm not sure why people are just now concerned about the defensive back 7. It's been a concern since the season ended last year when there was a complete lack of DB depth to begin with and we were losing 2 excellent 5 year linebackers. It'll be a shock if the defense doesn't take a pretty good step back this coming season. Phil's going to really have to pull a rabbit out of a hat to avoid it.

Offense- 12 Iowans Defense- 4 Iowans Is this random? Obviously seems lopsided but I haven't honestly noticed in the past if there was a big difference or not.
 
Been saying it for a couple seasons now. Depth on D has been thinning out. We are definitely seeing that with this Spring 2 Deep. Back 7 could be in for a long season. DL has definitely lost some quality depth. Few seasons ago Iowa could go 3 deep on the DL. LB's are a giant ?

Remember, we did bring in two portal DT’s, Pace and Hawthorne who will be in the mix.

I saw Large on the roster but didn’t see Resar listed.

Cause Phil tends not to rotate players beyond the DL.
 
Man I'm worried about our LBs and half of our D backfield.
hopefully some of the freshman LB can crack into the 2 deep if not start--we have some real good talent there now that is young and 2 more coming in and the one guy is highly ranked at LB....
