For Ep 700 we welcome NFL quarterback, Iowa Legend, C.J. Beathard, who shares updates on life in Tennessee with his wife Maddie and kids, including a third child due in November. CJ is from Franklin, Tennessee and chose the Hawkeyes after flipping from Ole Miss. We reminisce about Iowa football, including playing through injuries, the 2015 season’s close-game success and leadership, the Big Ten Championship, the North Dakota State loss as a major “what if,” and memorable moments like the Indiana dive and Michigan helmet-storming theft story. Beathard discusses recruiting (Ole Miss to Iowa), his views on NIL and the transfer portal’s impact on team bonds, and his NFL experiences with the 49ers and Jaguars, including a nervous but meaningful 2020 start. He also tells draft-day stories about George Kittle, Tight End U’s growth, jersey swaps, and his love of golf and shark fishing.
