    TJ is from Fresno, California. He joined in the Spring semester of 2021 in Iowa City, and in this episode he discusses training for pro day in Austin and returning to Iowa after the combine, adjusting to being between teams, and learning the NIL/agent process, including how revenue sharing felt compared to scholarship checks. He reflects on growing up in Fresno, playing baseball and basketball before focusing on football, and the culture and weather shock of arriving in Iowa in January. Hall recounts his unusual recruiting path from Arizona to Washington (including a coaching staff firing during his visit) to Iowa, plus the influence of his family’s Midwest ties. He shares early trial-by-fire playing time, Coach Parker coaching stories, a turf toe injury, becoming a starter through extra work, handling social media criticism, favorite moments, and his emotions and excitement heading toward the April draft.

    Jeremiah Pittman | WUW 679

    On this episode Iowa Hawkeyes football player Jeremiah Pittman returns to discuss balancing football with academics, choosing finance over engineering, and what he gained from demanding coursework like valuation modeling. He reflects on growing up in a strict household with two older brothers, a church-centered upbringing with music, and how maturity shaped his approach to college. Pittman details committing to Iowa during the COVID recruiting era without an official visit, drawn by transparent coaching (especially Coach Bell), program stability under Kirk Ferentz, and faith connections through Jim Goodrich and Athletes in Action. He explains how NIL, transfers, and revenue sharing changed college football, raising concerns about young players’ money habits. Pittman shares a significant knee cartilage injury and rehab, faith-based identity beyond sport, leadership in Bible studies, and what he’ll carry forward—time management and the “Iowa Edge.” He previews his post-football plans: a corporate finance rotational program at Uline, marriage, and house hunting.
