Ben McCollum on how he thinks prospective high school and portal players will perceive Iowa, considering what the program is accomplishing this season: “If you’re a tough dude, this is a good spot for you. If you’re soft and you like yourself way too much, this is probably not the spot for you. We just try to recruit tough dudes that want to be part of something bigger than themselves, and hopefully people see that.”
Brain damage, CTE and depression nearly pushed Iowa legend Robert Gallery to end his life. Then he met the Navy Seal who introduced him to an unlikely savior: psychedelics. My latest piece for Iowa Magazine. https://t.co/t7MBNSMcaz
You don’t lose strength by lifting on game day.
You lose it by skipping every game-day session for 12 weeks straight.
In-season lifting done right = performance edge, not performance drop.
"And the players will wear a thin piece of cheap foam over their knees. And they'll be called knee pads."
"And these knee pads will prevent knee injuries, sir?"
"Not even a little."
"Sir, I'm confused. Why wear them at all?"
"Men dressed like zebras will demand it."
Kalen Walker ran 22.83 & 11.42 as a Junior in HS
Committed to a JUCO where he ran 21.5 & 10.8
1st year at Iowa runs 10.6
4 years later he FINALLY runs 10.09
Training to be fast isn’t a sometimes thing and it’s certainly not instantaneous.
If you want to be fast, you better be willing to put in the work and be patient for 6+ years.
Athletes claim they want to be faster, stronger,less injury prone & simply "the best" but fail to:
❌Hydrate
❌Eat breakfast
❌Prioritize sleep
❌Eat a recovery meal
❌Pack snacks between class, training & work
However,☝️these same athletes never forget their📱.
⏰Priorities..
Not the results we were hoping for but we’ll take it for year one at State. Caden with a 8th place finish in the 200. Lot to build on for the next 3 year. Go CR-B!!
