6 Days Until Iowa Football: Ihmir Smith-Marsette

We’re under a week until Hawkeye football is back in our lives. Today, we head to Jersey. World class airports* and speedy receivers, that’s what Newark does.

2019 Projection: Starting Wide Receiver

While Newark may do airports and receivers, Iowa does not. Linemen and defensive backs and tight ends, that’s what Iowa football does.
