Video Sessions: ‘There’s not a better OL in college football’

Video No. 1 - Intro, breakdown of roster with experienced starters and fairly inexperienced and almost brand new No. 2s. On the recruiting speed over OL, 'Best players available.” Important recruiting note: Players that share your values (I truly believe Iowa recruiting from Hayden Fry to Kirk Ferentz comes down to work ethic and toughness. Look at the players who really turned it around for Hayden Fry. They were mostly linemen.) On Sean Welsh, the new LG. Look for some rotation at left guard, playing two players with the idea they both bloom into starters in the future. On RT Andrew Donnal. On C Austin Blythe. On RG Jordan Walsh
.
Video No. 2 - On social media. His tweet from last season about Iowa's stadium experience lacking luster. We'll see in August if anything has or will change. BF understands winning has a lot to do with stadium atmosphere. The Houston Texans question. 'I never commented on it because there was nothing to comment on.” From about 5:50 on, this video is about OT Brandon Scherff
and it is really good stuff. BF has always, from his playing days to today, communicated very clearly. You'll want to watch.
Video No. 3 - On DL coach Reese Morgan
: Prideful simplicity. BF notes a lot of the players Morgan has ID'd over the years. Expectations for the upcoming year. Something on a goofed picture.
