As a lifelong Iowa Hawkeye football fan, at least 44 of my 54 years, I’ve seen some incredibly good and bad Hawkeye football. I started following the Hawks when Hayden Fry
rode into town, and it has always been one of my passions. Other than the twilight of Hayden’s career and the couple of years for Kirk Ferentz to build the program back up, Iowa football has been the picture of consistency. I won’t say we have been spoiled, but we have been lucky to be a top-20 team going on half a century.
