Club Kenz is back!! 💃🪩 Which side of this Cincy-Iowa St Lock Fight are you on?

Conferences have gotten so big that it’s making it impossible for TV networks to schedule big time games in prime time.

New assistant coach title just dropped 🤣 Chris Hassel

From what I’ve seen so far I’m one of the few who thinks this is an upgrade. Simple. Classic.

I am thankful for friends and family. Had an amazing book kickoff tonight in front of hundreds of Iowa business leaders. Thanks to Business Record for hosting. I’m so happy and blessed.
