This week on the Hawkeye Report Podcast, Tom Kakert and Matt Randazzo begin by discussing the Iowa football team heading to the Outback Bowl for the sixth time. We take an early look at Mississippi State and some of their key players. We also discuss the early departure of Noah Fant and the potential of a few other Hawkeyes leaving early, including T.J. Hockenson. We discuss the “retirement” of Urban Meyer and then we dive into a lot of football recruiting news. We wrap up the show discussing the usual bad loss at Michigan State and the state of the Iowa basketball team as they head into a showdown on Thursday night against Iowa State.
