Updated Depth Chart. Cade is QB1. 3 WR Sets! CB John Nestor & WR Jarriett Buie listed as Preseason Starters

[BigOHawk]

Kirk said in today's press conference that RB1 Leshon Williams was back at practice.

There are no other significant injuries impacting the team.

Maybe a DL backup is dinged per Brada but no name.

 

[Franisdaman]

Man, I look at that defense and just smile. They're going to wreck people.

Speaking of the potential of the offense....

The 2025 Senior Bowl watch list includes 859 potential 2025 NFL Draft prospects from across the country.

The Iowa Hawkeyes on the list:

Defense:
DL Yahya Black
DB Sebastian Castro
LB Jay Higgins
DL Max Llewellyn

Offense:
QB Cade McNamara
OL Connor Colby
OL Logan Jones
TE Luke Lachey

Good stories from the Gazette:

Buie is listed as a preseason starter

Maybe, just maybe, Iowa has a couple of good QBs at its disposal....

Hope our QB1 is better than this

We'll get an updated depth chart next week ahead of Iowa's season opener against Illinois State

24/7 projects Cade as QB1 and Brendan as QB2.

Note that Jackson Stratton is pushing Marco Lainez for QB3. Jackson entered the transfer portal on Dec 4, 2023; he committed to Iowa on June 1, 2024.

Was Stratton the QB who was displaced by Petras?

 

[mvhomerl]

14 seems high.

I have a little concern about our corners. We are fortunate to have 4 good ones, but I don’t think any of them are as good as Moss and DeJean.

That ranking is a combination of the player and the offense he will be a part of.
A guy who is coming off multiple major injuries and surgeries with little live game action for 2 years. An offense that was historically terrible and is essentially a huge question mark as to what they'll look like.
14th is not unreasonable as a preseason rank. He needs to show that both he, and the offense, are better than that on the field when it matters.

Spencer entered the transfer portal on Nov 13, 2023; he committed to Utah State on Dec 3, 2023.

Jackson Stratton (out of Colorado State) entered the transfer portal on Nov 30, 2023. He committed to Iowa on June 2, 2024.

good points...

I just hope the first 5 weeks of the season (4 games and a bye) are a good tune up prior to the trip to Columbus. No one expects us to win at Ohio State but can we at least not get embarrassed this time?

Potential NIL market for Buie if he shows something on the field. Some of you may know the film reference.

So Patterson isn't hurt?

 

[Birky]

So Patterson isn't hurt?

Was he hurt? I wasn’t aware of him being hurt. Moulton just passed him, if that’s what you’re wondering?

So Patterson isn't hurt?

he's back practicing
