I still remember thinking "Holy shit! Andy Brodell can outrun the Texas secondary? I like our chances a lot more all of a sudden!"

I think had Iowa won that Alamo Bowl, it would have stuck out as AB's top memory. The punt return against ISU was tough to top, though.

That was him at his healthiest. He was booking it. On that fast track he certainly turned some heads with his play that day. He's kind of a what if story. If his hammys had been 100% I think he could have done more damage in college and had more than a cup of coffee in the NFL.

Yeah he destroyed (Cedric?) Griffin on one of those plays for a TD, and he won the Thorpe award that year

He ran like a quick hitch on it. The DB if it was him or not I don't remember but he gave him like a 8 yard cushion and Andy jab stepped to the middle of the field broke outside and just outran him and 3 other guys with angles on him. His strait line track speed was on display down that sideline.

I feel like Aaron Ross and Michael Griffin were both in that Texas secondary.

Dang my memory is so weird. I can remember stuff like that but I couldn't tell you where my keys and wallet are most of the time.

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

Love this stuff. Bad hammys most if his career but he was sneaky fast.

 

[Northside Hawk]

Could have been another David Moritz. To this day Moritz is one of my all time favorite Hawkeyes.

It seems impossible that he graduated in 2008. Seems like yesterday
