Former Iowa grad assistant lands at UNI

I didn't have a lot of interaction with Dan Clark, but when I did, he was a great guy.

You might know him as Dallas Clark's brother. You might know him as an Iowa graduate assistant, a role he held the last three seasons. Now, get to know Dan Clark as a defensive assistant coach for Northern Iowa.

I was happy to see this. Great guy.
