## Resource

Kirk Ferentz, Iowa’s legendary head coach, is back in the spotlight after being named to the preseason Dodd Trophy watch list — a prestigious honor recognizing on-field success and leadership. A past winner in 2015, Ferentz is one of only four previous recipients eligible to win again. But with just ten returning players and a shaky quarterback race between Hank Brown and Jeremy Hecklinski, the Hawkeyes face a tough road this season. The offensive line also has major gaps to fill. Can Ferentz lead them to a breakthrough — and reclaim the Dodd Trophy? All eyes will be on them at Big Ten Media Days in Chicago.
