If there is one type of player that Iowa Head Coach Kirk Ferentz loves, it is a local Iowa kid.
If you are a corn-fed Iowa kid and you play high school football, you will be getting a call from the Iowa coaching staff about coming to Iowa City to play for the Hawkeyes.
The Hawkeyes do not always get the highest-ranked recruits, nor do they top the list of the best recruiting classes every year, but they are adept at taking who they do get and turning them into quality football players and men.
