Mark Ironside joins the Pinning Combination podcast with The Gazette's K.J. Pilcher and Hall of Fame coach Dick Briggs ahead of Saturday night’s Cy-Hawk men’s wrestling dual between Iowa and Iowa State.
The two-time NCAA champion and 1998 Hodge Trophy winner discusses his role as the Hawkeyes’ radio analyst, hunting with Iowa wrestlers and coaches (including who among that group is the worst shot) and his expectations for Saturday’s dual.
Also this week, a look at the NWCA All-Star Classic results and more wrestling news from the week.
At 6-4, this has become a forgettable season for an Iowa football team that entered the fall with expectations to contend for a College Football Playoff spot. The Gazette's John Steppe and Mike Hlas talk through where it went wrong on this episode of the Hawk Off The Press podcast.
Plus, the Iowa men’s basketball team has more talent and potential than people think, but where are the fans?
