Nick DeJong Returning to Hawkeyes

[Grady]

Are you talking about Coy Cronk? He actually started the first 2 games in 2020, and then he missed the last 6 with injury. I think he is still bouncing around on NFL rosters/practice squads.

We have had pretty good success with D transfers (Heflin, ZVV, N. Jackson), but there has not really been a single offensive guy that has paid off big time, yet. All would have been that guy this year, and hopefully S. Anderson and K. Brown are those guys by the end of next year.

Yes, Cronk. Multi-year OLine starter at Indiana. You're correct, started the season as a starter, but as I remember he became a non-starter shortly thereafter (i.e. relegated to backup) because he was even more average than the rest of Iowa's OLine. He may have been injured for the last 6 games, as you say, but I think everyone can agree he didn't add much when he was in the lineup.

Really, Grady?

Really. I've watched him get beat so often in-person and up-close at Kinnick over the past 2 years, it makes my head spin.
