LOVE IT: I love the fact that Kirk Ferentz invited former Hawkeye player and assistant, Dan McCarney, back to Kinnick to serve as an honorary captain. I know, I know, Danny Mac coached our arch nemesis for a decade (and for some unfathomable reason, ISU thought they could do better—how’s that going guys?). But there’s always room for welcoming a native son back home. Ferentz and McCarney, although former rivals, got their coaching start under Coach Hayden Fry. Being that this past weekend was FryFest where a new statue of Coach Fry was unveiled, it just all seemed to make sense.
