A story the very talented Cody Scanlan and I have worked on for some time is out now. We followed three Iowans, working to make ends meet to afford food and other basic needs.

We spent time with three Iowans facing food insecurity. Here's what we found: desmoinesregister.com/story/…

With a regressing defense and a frustratingly one-dimensional offense, Iowa is a mediocre football team right now, firmly on track to fall short of a season that once had hope of being much more than forgettable: hawkcentral.com/story/sports…

My 4 Tuesday Iowa football thoughts are up!
1⃣"Best" practice week pays off in the Tim Lester offense
2⃣Zach Lutmer, welcome to the show
3⃣Finally, an inexperienced QB ... but he's dual-threat
4⃣Possible special-teams trickery

Iowa's secondary flexed its depth on Saturday vs. Washington, Aaron Graves/Gennings Dunker were maulers and KF shouldn't lose faith in Brendan Sullivan, who remains a situational numbers-changer.

There was no blown second-half lead this time at Kinnick. The Hawkeyes hammered Washington in every way on Saturday, sending them to the second half of the season in a good place.
Early thoughts column here.
3-word headlines?

Iowa goes wayyy out west for its third 2025 commit. Layla Hays is coming to the #Hawkeyes: bit.ly/486iK8L

It's unsurprising Sydney Affolter didn't want the medical option that meant missing games. But she ultimately came around on offseason knee surgery.
Her face lit up each time mentioning being pain-free. That'll benefit the #Hawkeyes more in the long run: bit.ly/4017BE1

Iowa State is going to be in the preseason top-10 largely for the same reason they won the Big 12 Tournament and made the Sweet 16 - those guards desmoinesregister.com/story/… via @DMRegister

4 @IowaWBB media day thoughts leads with a conversation about post-Caitlin Clark expectations.
Don't forget, one of the five best players in the world was on the Hawkeyes roster in 2024. Super-impactful quotes in here + IMO needed perspective.

#Hawkeyes and JuJu at 12:30 p.m. on FOX feels like a Gus Johnson appearance waiting to happen. Iowa will have at least 14 regular-season games on actual channels this upcoming season: bit.ly/3NiqfQf

If you were to power rank Iowa State's linebackers last spring, guys that probably would have ranked in or near the double digits are now seeing the field due to injuries.
Yet the Cyclones have the Big 12's best defense. How?

The general consensus from Iowa players during Tuesday’s meeting with media was wishing the two departures well but not letting it detract from the season's bigger picture: ‘To me, they’re still family. But the mission hasn’t changed’ hawkcentral.com/story/sports…
