HawkeyeNation.com] In a continuing effort to upgrade their talent level, the Iowa Football team will hold open tryouts on Saturday, May 10, 2008 at their practice facility. This will be the Hawks first open tryout in team history.
“If you played football in high school or even Pop Warner, and have a dream of making it in college football, this is where you want to be,” said Hawks head coach Kirk Ferentz. “With all the players we’ve lost this offseason, we need bodies, and who knows, we may just find the next Vince Papale.”
All players will be evaluated in the 5-yard dash, butterfly stretch and the limbo. Selected players who exceed the Hawks testing standards will be invited to participate in an elite workout later in the day, where players will be evaluated in drills specific to the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Advanced registration is $100 and is payable by check or money order to the Hawkeye Booster, Free Agency Fund, no later than Friday, May 2. Participants may register on site the morning of open tryout for a “Day Of” registration fee of $175.
