Iowa Football had high expectations entering the 2025-2026 season, especially on the offensive side of the football.
Offensive coordinator Tim Lester is in his second year, and Iowa completely revamped the quarterback room after struggling mightily last season.
The program brought in transfer quarterback Mark Gronowski (South Dakota State) to lead the quarterbacks room, followed by transfers Hank Brown (Auburn) and Jeremy Hecklinski (Wake Forest) as backups.
The season has not gone to plan for the Hawkeyes, who have dropped two of their first five games, including the second-straight loss in the annual Cy-Hawk rivalry game against Iowa State.
