  10/17/20 - OT Alaric JacksonrSr/2021, Iowa

  This 2020 Hawkeye offensive line doesn't care about getting love, but it sure would like to move large humans around against their will. That would mean new quarterback Spencer Petras is being protected and Iowa's talented trio of running backs are springing free for big gains. And even though offensive line coach Tim Polasek lost the one guy that could make the highlight reels in Tristan Wirfs, his 2020 group has encouraging, collective potential. "I like this group," Polasek said. "I like the energy. I really like the leadership."

Offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz - another coach with expertise on the offensive line - indicated that three players had emerged as starters ahead of the Oct. 24 opener at Purdue: Alaric Jackson at left tackle, Coy Cronk at right tackle and Tyler Linderbaum at center. No wonder: Collectively, that trio has 87 career starts. There's excitement about Jackson, a second-team all-Big Ten pick in 2018 who got hurt in Week 1 last season and never fully recovered. Now, after immersing himself in a vegan diet, he's transformed his 6-foot-6, 315-pound frame entering his fourth year in Iowa's starting lineup. If he has a strong nine-game season, he could follow Wirfs as a first-round NFL Draft pick. "He's quicker, he's more sudden," Polasek said. "I see a change in the morning (at practice). He's got a little bit more energy." - Iowa City Press-Citizen
