UNI football coach Todd Stepsis expects the Panther’s depth to improve by the start of summer workouts. Several veteran players were held out of spring drills due to injury and Stepsis says they may search the transfer portal for some help.

Stepsis says building depth on the defensive line remains a priority.

Stepsis says for incoming freshmen and transfers summer workouts become even more important.

The Panthers open next season at home on August 30th against Butler.
