Iowa football defensive coordinator Phil Parker is the guest on this week's Hawk Off The Press podcast.

Consistency has been key for Parker and Iowa's defense, and he talks about why that is, what he looks for in recruits to fit in with the Hawkeyes, why he stayed at Iowa even when he had other job offers and how Bob Sanders set the tone for Ferentz-era defenses.

But Parker also talks about how things have changed in his time as coach, including the cash position at Iowa and increased use of analytics.
