we're loaded with depth and tons of upperclassmen according to swingman...
Iowa cornerbacks:
Matt Hankins, a true sophomore, who is questionable. His backup is Julius Brent’s a true freshmen.
Michael Ojemudia, a redshirt junior. His backup is John Turner, a redshirt freshmen.
Three of the four top Iowa cornerbacks have been in their program less than 16 months.
Minnesota’s top four cornerbacks have been Terrell Smith, Kiondre Thomas, Antonio Shenault, and Coney Durr.
Three of the top four Minnesota cornerbacks have been in the program for three years or more. Our cornerback unit is older than Iowa’s.
Iowa starting safeties are junior Amani Hooker and senior Jake Gervase. Gervase is a former walk on. The backups are Geno Stone, a true sophomore, and John Milano, a rs junior. Milani is another walk on.
Minnesota starting safeties are Jacob Huff, a senior, and Howden, a true frosh. Their backups who have played and I would expect to play if needed Saturday are Swenson, a redshirt soph and Williamson, a redshirt junior. Howden and Swenson are walkons.
Their ain’t much difference in age, experience, scholarship depth in the top four safeties for IA and MN.
