WUW 187 | Brandon Bishop Feb 08, 2021

Show notes

Today we caught up with Brandon Bishop, who came to Iowa City in 2014 from Sugar Grove, Illinois. Brandon is one of the best people you could ever meet and throughout the episode those layers start to peel back. He was known as the effort guy on scout team and took pride in his role to get the First team Defense ready for the gameday opponents. He excelled in this role earning Team Leader Award 2 years in a row. We talk about all of this plus the moment he figured out he wasn't a D1 talent, how he approached his role in the program, the mental health of living the student athlete lifestyle, how Coach Ferentz and Coach Doyle were pillars every step of the way, and a crazy tragic story that Kluver and Bishop were a part of in 2015.

WUW 185 | John Kenny Feb 01, 2021

Show notes

John is from Indiana was a part of our class that joined the Hawks in 2013. John was actually the first guy on campus for Spring semester that year after graduating high school early. He started at Linebacker and switched to fullback, where he saw several starts in 14', after some injuries at the FB position left us searching for someone to fill the role. Drake and John have a fun conversation about the life of a Fullback. After that year John found himself looking for an identity in the program and found his way to Arizona as a transfer. He talks about about the Iowa edge and what makes the Hawks different, and why Iowa prepared him for the business world, which we catch up on as well.

WUW 183 | Keith Duncan Jan 25, 2021

Show notes

The GOAT, #3, Keith Duncan finally joins the show. After coming to Iowa City from the East Coast, Keith exploded into the Big Ten with a dagger 33 yard field goal to knock off Top 5 Michigan Wolverines in Kinnick Stadium in 2016. Yet, with an all time Iowa moment under his belt, he spent the next 2 seasons behind Miguel Recinos. He talks all about that journey and the ups and downs of his career. We talk about the specialist room, blowing kisses at Nebraska, his All American season, being snubbed by the Groza committee, and being in a leadership role as the Hawks faced the most tumultuous off season in school history.

WUW 181 | Casey Kreiter Jan 18, 2021

Show notes

Casey is from Dewitt, Iowa and joined the team in 2009 as a walkon linebacker. He spent his first year in the back of the room as Pat Angerer watched film before being asked to move to D-line in the spring when the defense needed bodies. After realizing he wasnt going to be a Big Ten lineman either, he made the transition to Long snapper. He played 3 full seasons as the starter and preceded Kluver at the position. We re-live many memories from our short time together in our overlapping season and he talks all about the specialist dynamic and how it take a while to earn respect. Tells an awesome Mike Daniels story, discusses his time in the NFL, and much more.
