Hawkeye Report Podcast 827

It's a jam packed mid-week edition of the Hawkeye Report Podcast. Tom Kakert and Kyle Huesmann start the pod by talking about the stunning announcement from Kirk Ferentz at his Tuesday press conference that Jeremy Hecklinski would be the starting quarterback at Minnesota. Not stunning for who he picked, but how it played out at the presser. 

Then we discuss the actual decision, how it played out, and what it means moving forward. Is this Iowa's best chance to finish strong in the final six games? Could there be a path back for Hank Brown?

Then we preview what we know and have seen from Minnesota's football team this year. Who are the key players to watch on both sides of the ball and what stands out to us heading into the game?

After that we move on to men's and women's basketball and the secret scrimmages. First we talk about the women's secret scrimmage and Iowa beating a ranked opponent in Oklahoma State. What did we learn and what's ahead for the Hawkeye women? We then move over to the men's basketball side of the equation and how the Hawkeyes were able to beat St. Louis University in a secret scrimmage. What did we hear about the scrimmage? Who stood out for Ben McCollum's team?

Finally we wrap up making our predictions for the top college football games this weekend, including the Iowa game at Minnesota.
