Hawkeyes Football: C.J. Beathard for Heisman?

Just a couple of weeks ago the discussion of whether Desmond King is a legitimate Heisman hopeful was in full swing. The cornerback is coming off a school-record eight interceptions but decided to stay at Iowa for his senior season. Although, through the first two weeks, it’s evident that teams don’t want to challenge King.

Teams try to throw and run to the opposite side King is on. It’s a testament to the greatness of Desmond King, however it forces him to have a special season on special teams if he wants to be in the Heisman discussion.
