No, this is not a Doors' cover band.
Let's look at some more camp photos (from Thursday's practice):
Photo 1 -- LB Jeremiha Hunter filled out some from last year. Don't have the numbers in front of me, but he definitely looks bigger and a little like Jules Winnfield.
Photo 8 -- True frosh OL Nolan MacMillan looks like he could be ready to go right NOW. He's 6-6, 288 and it looks like good weight.
Photo 16 -- Here's former CR Washington QB Wyatt Suess. I wrote back in February that Iowa didn't have a QB in this class. I was wrong. Iowa doesn't have a scholarship QB. Suess is a walk-on, but he might be a pretty good bet. I saw him play last fall. He's got good size (6-4ish, 220ish) and he's got wheels. He was a sprinter on a lot of Wash's relays in the spring.
Photo 19 -- Here's WR JoJo Pregont. I just wanted to write JoJo. Kidding. He's a 6-6, 210-pound walk-on wideout from Janesville, Wis. He's a Scott Chandler starter kit.
Photo 24 -- Not as many action shots today. Here's TE Allen Reisner blocking down. I think that's walk-on DT Thomas Nardo (6-3, 270) on the inside.
Photo 25 -- WR Don Nordmann catches a pass in front of an unidentified D-back.
Photo 26 -- WR Paul Chaney Jr. and CB Greg Castillo in a battle. Castillo's status has accelerated with Jordan Bernstine's injury.
Photo 28 -- First-team O. I think that's Ricky Stanzi at QB. If it's not, it's James Vandenberg. The numbers I can see show Dan Doering and Riley Reiff running with the 1s on the OL. And No. 79 is Bryan Bulaga. He's making someone's morning miserable in this pic.
Photo 29 -- D-end Lebron Daniel is going up against C Josh Koeppel, at least I think. There's a D-lineman with a 6 in his number, I think Christian Ballard. If so, Daniel is running with the 1s and Adrian Clayborn still isn't practicing.
First public look at the Hawkeyes is Saturday at Kinnick. Gates open at 11 a.m.
(By the way, the above photo is a Stanzi pic from spring practice. I grabbed it because I don't have the lap top revved.)
