Hawkeye Report Podcast

It was night one of Big Ten Basketball play for Ben McCollum and the Iowa Hawkeyes and the first road game was not a successful outing as they lost at Michigan State 71-52. On this edition of the podcast, Tom Kakert and Matt Randazzo discuss the defeat at the hands of the Spartans. What went wrong for the Hawkeyes and will those issues be a problem longer term this season?

We look at the upcoming games for the Iowa men’s team as they host Maryland on Saturday and then travel to Ames next week. What would be a realistic outcome for both games and we discuss why it is very important for Iowa to get a win on Saturday over the Terps.

Then we move over to Iowa football because it’s signing day on Wednesday. We breakdown the class of 18 players and discuss nearly all of them on the podcast. We talk about seven four star prospects and who stands out from that group. We also discuss the new trend with high school players, early enrollment into college and how 11 of these future Hawkeyes will be on campus starting in late January. 

Also, we talk about the transfer portal, which will become a hot topic in the coming weeks before the portal officially opens up after the first of the year. What are the positions of need for the Iowa football team in the portal this year and could there be spots where some Hawkeye players might be leaving? 

Finally we talk about the upcoming bowl invite and how it looks like the Hawkeyes could be headed to Tampa later this month to face an opponent from the SEC.
