Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 20:23:34 GMT

Iowa Hawkeyes basketball could roll out a surprising starting five under Ben McCollum, as summer workouts heat up in Iowa City. With Andrew McKeever’s seven-foot-three frame now on campus and Tyreek Coleman’s dynamic skillset in the mix, how will the rotation evolve? Trent Condon projects key roles for Cooper Koch, Cale Combs, and rising talent Tate Sage while questioning if defensive standouts like Cam Manao and Isaiah Howard can hold off fiery newcomers. Is this the defensive-minded lineup Hawkeye fans have been waiting for?

Football recruiting also takes center stage as Eliot Clough breaks down Iowa’s latest commitments, including defensive tackle Barrist Allen and safety Jonathan Harris. The conversation spotlights position battles at defensive tackle, the development of Bryce Stevenson, and the high-stakes recruitment of top offensive line and running back prospects. Can Iowa secure the final pieces for its next Big Ten run?

BIG 10 SQUAD: The Big 10 is BOYCOTTING Texas Tech | How this affects Iowa

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 11 Jun 2026 21:00:00 GMT

Big Ten powers rally against Texas Tech over Brendan Sorsby’s controversial eligibility fight. As the Red Raiders attempt to play Sorsby despite NCAA regulations, Big Ten schools refuse all non-conference competition, igniting a heated debate about integrity, NIL chaos, and the role of judges in college football. Is this a Texas Tech scandal, an NCAA crisis, or a sign the sport is spinning out of control?

The Locked On Big Ten Squad breaks down why Sorsby’s 9,000 betting violations set off a conference-wide backlash, if conferences—not the NCAA—hold the real power, and how coaches like Joey McGuire are stoking national outrage. Can streamlining rules, stricter enforcement, or a new governing body save the sport? Plus, get bold predictions as FanDuel sets Minnesota’s win total at 6.5—will the Golden Gophers beat expectations this season?

TRANSFORMATION? Iowa Hawkeyes Target Game-Changing Carver Hawkeye Arena UPGRADES and Fan Experience

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 11 Jun 2026 20:22:32 GMT

Carver-Hawkeye Arena is primed for a transformative renovation, aiming to elevate Iowa Hawkeyes basketball through enhanced fan experiences, modern amenities, and new premium seating. Could these upgrades finally give Iowa the recruiting and game-day boost it needs to compete at the highest level? Trent Condon unpacks the proposed $50–$70 million upgrades, revealing how private suites, club seating, and improved accessibility could shape the arena’s future and potentially shrink overall capacity for a more intimate, high-revenue environment.

Tim Dwight and Travis Gorsh join the show to spotlight the TNT Football Camp, a free opportunity for Iowa youth to develop skills and passion for football. Dwight shares insight on multi-sport athleticism, player development, and the unique mindset required for elite special teams play. The episode explores how former Hawkeyes—like Kaden Wetjen—excel in the return game and the broader impact of giving back to Iowa’s next generation of athletes.

Hawkeye Report Podcast 792

Tom Kakert — Tue, 09 Jun 2026 23:54:00 GMT

On this edition of the Hawkeye Report Podcast, we get caught up on a several topics. Most of them involving Iowa athletics and the Hawkeyes, plus an extended conversation on the story of the week in college sports. Tom Kakert and Kyle Huesmann open the show wrapping up the Iowa baseball season. Huesmann goes in-depth on the overall season, the injuries to the pitchers that ended up impacting the overall season, and we look ahead to next year and the needs for Rick Heller's team.

Then we talk some Iowa men's and women's basketball. We try to take an early look ahead regarding the possible starting lineups for both teams. What will Ben McCollum do with his starting lineup and will it continue to be focused on the defensive end of the floor? What about Jan Jensen and her team. Huesmann has a couple of interesting thoughts on what the Iowa head coach will end up doing this winter.

Then we move over to the WNBA and talk about Caitlin Clark and the drama that just seems to follow her and the Indiana Fever at every turn. Plus she had a game winning three late in the win over Washington on Monday.

Then we move over to football recruiting. Iowa had a pretty positive weekend, landing a pair of new recruits. We look at the new additions that bring the total number of commits in this class to 12. How much more would they like to add in what will end up being a smaller class?

Finally, we dive into the story of the week, Bredan Sorsby, the Texas Tech quarterback, being able to get an injunction from a judge in Texas that will allow him to play for the Red Raiders even after gambling on his own team while he was at Indiana. What is our reaction to the news? What could happen next?

Tom Kakert — Mon, 08 Jun 2026 19:21:00 GMT

It's a special edition of the Hawkeye Report Podcast! We are joined by newly retired Big Ten official and Iowa City native, DJ Carstensen. We have a lot to discuss, beginning with how the former hoops standout and college player ended up being a high level basketball official.

We talk about his time in Iowa City growing up during the 70's and early 80's when the Hawkeyes were flying high and attending basketball games in The Fieldhouse. How he worked camps at Iowa when the Hawkeyes were coached by greats like Lute Olsen, George Raveling, and Tom Davis.

We look back at his time with officiating and how he rose up the ranks from working D2 and D3 games to calling high profile games in the Big Ten on a weekly basis before retiring at the end of this last season. We learn about his time calling games, how he was able work with coaches like Fran McCaffery, who could be colorful on the sidelines. We also discuss his work with Coaches vs. Cancer in upstate New York and how McCaffery and many other coahes he has met over the years have donated to the cause.

We discuss the court decision today on allowing a player who bet on his own team to play college football and gambling in general on college sports and the feedback he got as a official. We talk about makeup calls and other falsehoods that fans might believe. Finally we discuss the shortage of officials and training the next group for the future of the games we love to see being played.

Kluver welcomes longtime Dowling Catholic head coach Tom Wilson for a throwback conversation that begins with memories from the 2013 Shrine Bowl, including intense practices and an opening deep ball to Matt Haack. Wilson reflects on notable athletes he has coached (Haack, John “Wiz” Wisniewski, Amarah Darboh, Rico Gafford, Jake Hummel, Ryan Boyle) and shares how he entered coaching, from early influences in Monroe to head coaching stops at English Valley and Wilton, a career-shaping graduate assistant stint at Ball State, eight years at Dike-New Hartford, and taking the Dowling job in 2005. He explains why he stayed in high school coaching despite college opportunities, emphasizing family timing, and discusses relationships with Kirk Ferentz and Reese Morgan. Wilson outlines his program-building values—hard work, accountability, relationships—plus feeder-system involvement, communication, expectations, and daily goal focus to combat complacency, along with traits he looks for in players and the benefits of multi-sport participation.

Fight for Iowa - Kirk Ferentz + Zach Lutmer

Sun, 07 Jun 2026 05:00:00 GMT

Summer conditioning is underway in Iowa City, and for head coach Kirk Ferentz, the next four weeks may be among the most important of the offseason. After losing nearly 30 players to graduation, the NFL and the transfer portal, the Hawkeyes have welcomed an equally large incoming class of freshmen and transfers as Ferentz navigates the realities of college football's year-round roster management era.

This week on Fight for Iowa, Ferentz discusses the challenges and opportunities that come with rebuilding a roster, how the expanded calendar has changed player development, and why much of the groundwork for the 2026 season is already being laid before fall camp even begins.

We also catch up with All-Big Ten safety Zach Lutmer. The Rock Rapids native returns after a standout junior season that included 70 tackles, three interceptions, a touchdown return, a sack and a fumble recovery. Lutmer helped lead a Hawkeye defense that finished among the nation's best and now steps into an even larger leadership role following the departures of Xavier Nwankpa and Koen Entringer.

BIG 10 SQUAD: Congress is trying to SAVE College Football | How this impacts Iowa

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 04 Jun 2026 21:00:00 GMT

The Big Ten and SEC unite to push back against Congress’s sweeping plan to overhaul college football, setting up a powerful standoff that could reshape the sport’s future. With player compensation, playoff formats, and media rights on the line, can any legislation succeed without college football’s biggest powerhouses on board?

The Big 10 Squad dissects the motives behind congressional intervention in NCAA sports, conference politics, and the relentless pursuit of media power. The crew shifts focus to Wisconsin Badgers football, debating whether Luke Fickell’s squad can clear a six-and-a-half win total and what’s at stake for his job security. Insights on quarterback Colton Joseph, a soft Big Ten schedule, and the looming challenges from Notre Dame and Penn State add fuel to the debate. Is this the season Wisconsin bounces back, or are bigger shakeups ahead for the Badgers?

Hawkeye Report Podcast 790

Tom Kakert — Thu, 04 Jun 2026 14:36:00 GMT

A good thirty minute podcast today including a great interview and a look at a huge recruiting weekend for Iowa football. First the interview. Tom Kakert visits with Iowa assistant coach Luke Barnwell about his first season as an assistant at the University of Iowa.

We begin talking about the great run in the NCAA Tournament and particularly dive into the victory over Florida. A year earlier, Barnwell was at Texas Tech and part of the scout in the Elite Eight loss to Florida. One year later, he handled the scout when Iowa beat Florida to advance to the Sweet 16. He talks about that and the run and how he was also coping with the sudden loss of his father in early March.

We then dive into what he learned working this year for Ben McCollum, along with the portal and player development that he saw this spring from several of the returning players. What has he seen from Trey Thompson and what can he do this season? What will Ethan Harris bring to the Hawkeyes and just how big is Andrew McKeever and how can they use the seven footer?

Then we move over to football. It's a huge weekend with 18 prospects on campus, including 8 unocommitted players. We run down the entire list of uncommitted players and where they might be leaning. With a small class expected, what positions are a priority?
