Iowa Football is BACK w/ David Eickholt | WUW 708

Tyler Kluver and David Eickholt kick off the first Kluver & Eickholt Power Hour of the 2026 season, announcing another year of their weekly KF Press Review show and reacting to fall camp and the open practice. They break down the QB1 race, noting Jeremy Hecklinski’s rough early camp before a near-perfect open practice while Hank Brown struggled, and they also highlight freshman four-star Tate Bessinger’s natural talent and processing. The conversation turns to Iowa’s “three-three-six” schedule structure and the brutal three-game stretch vs Michigan, Ohio State, and at Washington, debating which is most winnable and the need to name a starter by Week 2. They discuss defensive concerns (especially defensive tackle, corner depth, and possible NFL-to-college return chatter), special teams turnover, and growing optimism about Tim Lester’s offense, improved receiver depth, a deep RB room, and DJV’s ceiling at tight end.
