This season wasn't just a record-breaking season for Head Coach Kirk Ferentz.
Arguably, the most important position on the football field is the quarterback, and the Iowa program got a good one via the January transfer portal window to begin 2025.
Former South Dakota State Jackrabbits star quarterback Mark Gronowski committed to the Iowa Hawkeyes after spending four seasons in Brookings, South Dakota.
Gronowski was dynamic with his legs and his arm at South Dakota State, compiling 10,330 passing yards and 93 touchdowns through the air, and 1,767 rushing yards and 37 touchdowns on the ground.
