Today we are joined by Hawkeye Insider/247Sports reporter Elliot Clough, who shares his path from running track (including walking on at Iowa Central and UNI) and doing campus media to a grind through freelance writing, play-by-play, radio DJ work, and multiple layoffs before landing full-time at 247. They discuss balancing fandom and objectivity in sports media, then shift to Iowa football as fall camp begins: quarterback play, wide receiver improvements (including Tony Diaz), offensive line configuration questions (especially at center), portal impact players like Diaz, LJ Phillips, and Tyler Brown, and a hot take that Cam Buffington could become Iowa’s second-best defensive player. Elliot predicts Iowa's record relative to the 7.5 win total thrown out by sportsbooks with most of the prediction revolving around a brutal early Big Ten stretch (Michigan, Ohio State, Washington).
