Nick Saban talking college football and everything going on in this coaching carousel is very enjoyable. Keeps it real and doesn't sugar coat how difficult winning really is.

I know a lot of people want change and are never happy but I am really excited to see Coach Ferentz come back. I hope he stays for a while yet, honestly. He's put together a tremendous staff that consistently helps this team be one of the best in many areas.

Waking up this morning with a lot of gratitude that I'm Hawkeye fan. The men's basketball team is so much fun watch and I really believe is pointed in the right direction. Women's hoops looks incredible and our football team has got meaningful football in November. It's a great day to be a Hawkeye!

Yeah, I'm convinced, let's go win the whole thing. Go Hawks!
