Week One Media Availability. Team is healthy. Kaden Wetjen will return punts. Kaleb Johnson will start at kick returner
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
Kirk put together the game plan this week?
Great. Here comes 8 punts and 1 offensive touchdown 👌
I kid.. …
It will be interesting to see Acting HC Seth Wallace and OC Tim Lester working together.
How aggressive will they be? Granted, it's Illinois State so if they make a decision that doesn't work, it's not going to cost them much....
No excuses for all these seniors - execute from start to finish and bulldoze this opponent into oblivion.
35-3 Final
Interesting comments on TJ Hall, John Nestor and Deshaun Lee.
Full text of tweet:
Kirk Ferentz says that TJ Hall has had a bit more consistency than John Nestor and Deshaun Lee and that’s why he was awarded the starting CB spot. But it’s far from a done deal.
“It won’t surprise me with certain groups if it takes a month to figure out.”
Adds that it is not a bad thing. Loves the competition and the talent

KF is missing 24 hours against Illinois State. It's different, sure, but it's not exactly a big deal. If a key player were missing, sure, but a coach? Kaleb Brown and a reserve O-lineman will miss the game too. So what?
I think Lester will figure it out. Whereas many Iowa teams have neglected to use some of its speediest weapons, I don't think that's Lester's MO. I'll be surprised . . . and disappointed . . . if we don't see Iowa's speed displayed. Of course, it's just week one, but if you got it, use it. I'm looking forward to it.
