Football is back! At least a taste of it is anyways. Iowa head football coach Kirk Ferentz met with reporters and shared his excitement to get the spring slate underway.
“Certainly good to be back and it’s good for us as coaches to be able to focus on the 2022 team now, so it’s good to be back in the office and into it. As I said last time, you know, any time we get together, get started in January, it’s a new team, certainly a new season and a new opportunity on top of that, so it’s always good. As you approach spring football, there’s always promise and hope with the new season, a lot of excitement about that. I think that’s something that players and coaches both share. So it’s one of the great things about spring ball I think,” Ferentz said.
With the Hawkeyes underway with their spring practices, Iowa released its spring depth chart.
Iowa unveiled its spring depth chart one day before spring practice opens on Wednesday.
Of note, Spencer Petras is listed as the No. 1 QB but all three QBs appear. Four redshirt frosh appear: OL Beau Stephens and David Davidkov, QB Joe Labas and FS Jaxon Rexroth. pic.twitter.com/tAoRrctmYx
