![Noah Fant, George Kittle and TJ Hockenson on a PFF graphic of #Hawkeyes tight ends and their overall grades.
Unnecessary for this "three spirits" exercise but still crucial for the alt text, here are those listed grades:
Fant: 77.3 in 2018 and 72.9 in 2017
Kittle: 78.6 in 2016 and 93.8 in 2015
Hockenson: 90.0 in 2018 and 74.4 in 2017
All three are shown wearing Iowa's road uniform with [Pat Hughes voice] black helmets, white jerseys and gold trousers. Fant wears 87, Kittle 46 and Hockenson 38.
Fant and Hockenson were first-round picks in the 2019 NFL Draft, while Kittle was a fifth-round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. That information is not in the PFF graphic, but I hope you find it useful if you follow me for the Hawkeyes nostalgia and not the jokes.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:r2gzllskjnzsj76pu4gvozjt/bafkreiexup74g6pem3eefl3a4bzql2uqt7zqb53wtjimgwboqiqxsrfmpm@jpeg)

In 2019, #Hawkeyes football beat writers (& 2 TV guys) got to interview BJ Armstrong before a game. I captured this nice moment when he recognized @mikehlas.bsky.social – by his voice – then talked about how he & Tom Davis still discuss what Iowa could have done against UNLV in the 1987 Elite 8.

NATE STANLEY I LOVE YOU
1. Some of the "best" games I've attended or covered were #Hawkeyes losses, so my go-to favorite is in 2015 when Iowa improved to 10-0 by beating Minnesota – with wrestling as the opening act.
2. Brad Banks.
3. At Minnesota, 2024. Might be the last with a credential, but not the last I'll attend.
