IT'S NOT PLAGIARISM IF YOU LINK TO IT: AND THE NUMBER ONE PICK OF THE 2014 PTL DRAFT IS

WITH THE FIRST OVERALL PICK OF THE 2014 PTL DRAFT, THE (TEAM 1) SELECTS. Gabe Olaseni. The rest of the Hawkeye order went Jarrod Uthoff, Aaron White, Mike Gesell, Adam Woodbury, Anthony Clemmons, Peter Jok, Josh Oglesby, Trey Dickerson, Dom Uhl and Brady Ellingson. Peter Jok could have went higher if not for character question marks stemming from drunken moped-ing. I kid.

IOWA HIRES A NEW DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS. Iowa hired North Dakota State's Athletic Director Gene Taylor to serve as the Deputy Director of Athletics.

HERE'S A (FREE) STORY FROM ROB HOWE ON FORMER HAWKEYE ANTHONY FERGUSON. He was a defensive line prospect that gave up football to pursue academics at Iowa. There's some interesting stuff about Iowa's former defensive line coach and about Anthony's life post-Iowa.

MEL KIPER HAS SOME PRAISE FOR CARL DAVIS. At least he's high on his list of top senior defensive tackles.
