It goes without saying there are many quarterbacks that come to mind when you’re talking about pre-eminent, well-rounded and stalwart players. The University of Iowa football program has definitely had plenty of those QBs over the years.
A few names that provide name recognition to the QB position when I think of elite talent for Iowa football team include Ed Podolak, Chuck Hartlieb, Randy Duncan.
Those are just a few, but when I review the landscape of all quarterbacks to ever play for the Iowa football program, but there are five, in particular, that stand above the rest.
