TOM DIENHART
First team D: Hardy, Davis, Trinca-Pasat, Hardy up front; Bower, Alston, Spearman at LB; Mabin, Lowdermilk, Lomax, King at DBs. #Hawkeyes

Sounds like backup QB C.J. Beathard may get a series or two in games. He has looked good behind Jake Rudock. #Hawkeyes

Is this the best OT in the United States of America? Brandon Scherff looks good. #Hawkeyes pic.twitter.com/7DWNOonmee

Concerns about @HawkeyeFootball? Depth at o-line and safety. And is there big-play ability in passing game? Will 3 new LBs be OK? #Hawkeyes

Physical, fast-paced practice for @HawkeyeFootball. Winding down. Working on 2-minute drill, clocking the ball (Hello, Wisconsin!), FGs.

GERRY DINARDO
BTN Bus Tour #Hawkeyes Overall the best tempo of all the practices we've seen. They were in full pads, full speed drills and good energy.

BTN Bus Tour #Hawkeyes Whenever you watch Iowa practice or play what goes on at the line of scrimmage is most important. Today no different

BTN Bus Tour #Hawkeyes Biggest challenge right now is depth and experience on the front 7. Two things help them in development 1. Schedule

BTN Bus Tour #Hawkeyes Another thing that helps develop the front 7 is the style of off – its not a spread that hangs the defense out to dry

BTN Bus Tour #Hawkeyes Jake Rudock one of only 3 quarterbacks we seen throw ball well this camp tour.

BTN Bus Tour #Hawkeyes Iowa Off – Starts with outstanding OL, a QB that is poised to have an outstanding yr – close with explosive on flank

DAVE REVSINE
At Iowa practice – Brandon Scherff gets all they hype – and deservedly so – but Andrew Donnal is awfully impressive too
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2014
Always fun to watch Kirk Ferentz coach line play. It's the most fired-up you'll ever see him
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2014
Nate Meier lined up with 1's at DE in drill I just watched
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2014
Interested to see how the DL comes together at Iowa. Davis is an obvious star – worry a bit about depth & size of reserves
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2014
LeShun Daniels just came up with a really nice grab on a beautiful pass from Jake Rudock.
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2014
TE is a real position of strength for the Hawks even without CJF – lot of good options. Could be used creatively to alleviate FB issue too
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2014
Matt Vandeberg just hauled in perfectly thrown bomb from Rudock beating Fleming. For tm that needs to stretch the field – very encouraging
— Dave Revsine (@BTNDaveRevsine) August 19, 2014
I like CJ Beathard a lot. I think Iowa has two nice options at QB
