As I sit here this Monday morning, we are exactly two weeks away from game week in Iowa City. We’re two weeks away from Northern Illinois previews, mid-week media availability and the first really meaningful depth chart in months. Football fever is here.
Thank the football gods we got a taste of what’s to come over the weekend as the Hawkeyes held their media day on Friday and followed that up with the annual Kids Day open practice (it will never be a scrimmage) Saturday. In short, we have actual football stuff to talk about!
Media day is what it is, and that’s not seeing players on the field.
