Now that we're no longer on Caitlin Clark Olympic Defcon 1, my story from yesterday's open practice. Cade's got to do better than 8-24, and he'd probably be the first to tell you that. Don't panic, but maybe pump the brakes.
IOWA CITY — Iowa's annual Kids' Day open practice, held Saturday at Kinnick Stadium, is an opportunity for families to bring their young ones to see a tune-up from the Hawkeyes and snag a few autographs along the way.
Some of the throws by Iowa's quarterbacks Saturday may have sent the parents scrambling to cover their kids' eyes.
Jokes aside, Saturday's game wasn't a cause for panic for the Hawkeyes, who are still adjusting to new offensive coordinator Tim Lester and his playbook, but it was a forceful reminder that the work is still very, very much in progress.
"We're just going to let all three guys keep playing," said head coach Kirk Ferentz after the open practice. "With quarterbacks, you've just got to let them keep playing, see what they can do. We're going to keep giving all three guys good reps."
