Ferentz’s Quiet Secrets Before Season Opener | Iowa Hawkeyes Football News

Kirk Ferentz keeps things tight as Iowa heads into the season with major question marks — especially at quarterback, where no starter has been named and zero hints were given with kickoff just 40 days away. The defensive line also remains shrouded in mystery, with Ferentz hinting at as many as nine rotating players without naming any starters — a surprising move for a program known for its stout defense. Meanwhile, Ferentz backs expanding the College Football Playoff to 24 teams, hoping to give more teams like Iowa — with 13 straight winning seasons — a real shot at postseason glory. His secrecy might be strategic, or it could signal deeper uncertainty — and fans will have to wait and see how it all plays out on the field.
