Episode 33...Diante Vines.

Diante is one the the receivers we are looking forward to this upcoming season. Diante showed some flashes of brilliance this past season in an extremely anemic offense. This season Diante is poised to have a bigger role with a new QB and some changes within the offense. Matthew and I really enjoyed chatting with Diante and Matthew might have a new frontrunner for which jersey he wants this upcoming season.

Seth is one of the most underrated players in the last few years, contributing so much to the Hawkeye defense and contributing to a stout, deep ball hawk D.

Episode 29, we sit down with our third-ever guest that was not a player, but instead a reporter for the Iowa Hawkeyes. Tom has been around the Iowa program for a very long time and has been a part of some historic games and seasons, watching and reporting from the sidelines. A dream job for many, Tom is incredibly humble and fun to chat with. I could have chatted with Tom for another couple of hours on all things Iowa, the MLB, and the greatest band of all time: Pearl Jam. 

Tom is on with On3 Sports as a writer, make sure to check him out HERE.

Episode 28, someone that was a big factor in plugging up holes on the defensive line last season, and is poised to be a huge impact player this season with the departure of VanNess on the line. We were really excited to chat with Mr. Black. Yahya is a massive human being and one of the kindest interviews we've conducted yet. A native Minnesotan, he chatted with us while on Christmas break at home and we even had a chance to chat with his dad for a second.

Episode 27, a massively underrated player in Iowa's secondary that had a huge impact this past season... Quinn Schulte. We had a great time chatting with Quinn and he was incredibly accommodating in allowing us to interview him. Quinn has been with the Hawkeyes since he joined as a preferred walk-on in 2019. However, Quinn is no stranger to the Hawkeye program, as he grew up close by in Cedar Rapids and played for his father at Cedar Rapids Xavier High School, having a partial stake in leading his high school team to a state championship.

Episode 26, this man needs no introduction. Matthew had the time of his life chatting with Nico, and we learned a lot about him from an off the field perspective. Nico has been with the Hawkeye football program for a number of years now, and is set to return for one final season in 2023, hoping to surpass some receiving records in the process.  We both had a blast chatting with Nico and are excited to see what he can do this coming season.

Episode 24, the glue of the offensive line and someone that stepped into some very large shoes, Logan Jones. As a sophomore, Logan was thrown into a line that overcame some struggles this past year and was a part of a team with a beautiful story arc. He's making a name for himself in the weight room and the sky is the limit on the field at Center. As a native of Council Bluffs, Logan chats with us about Max Duggan, his favorite gameday traditions, and spends some time with Matthew on the "Hot Seat."
