IOWA CITY, Iowa -- In his 17th University of Iowa football media day, head coach Kirk Ferentz remained steadfast. The Hawkeyes are committed to being a Big Ten championship-caliber football team.

“That has been our goal since 1999 when we got started, and things haven’t changed,” Ferentz said Saturday in the Feller Club Room inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena. “I believe we have a strong foundation in place right now, and feel good about the adjustments we’ve made since January.”

Aside from altering the team’s practice schedule from afternoon to morning workouts when fall camp breaks, Ferentz says the program’s core beliefs haven’t changed.
