Iowa’s Kirk Ferentz on competition at QB

Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says a decision on a starting quarterback could possibly come after the start of next season. Sophomore Jeremy Hecklinski and junior Hank Brown are vying to replace Mark Gronowski. The Hawkeyes wrapped up spring drills over the weekend.

Among the factor on deciding on a starter is ball security.

The Hawkeyes open next season at home on September fifth against Northern Illinois.
