    Dowling Catholic Head Coach Tom Wilson | WUW 694

    Kluver welcomes longtime Dowling Catholic head coach Tom Wilson for a throwback conversation that begins with memories from the 2013 Shrine Bowl, including intense practices and an opening deep ball to Matt Haack. Wilson reflects on notable athletes he has coached (Haack, John “Wiz” Wisniewski, Amarah Darboh, Rico Gafford, Jake Hummel, Ryan Boyle) and shares how he entered coaching, from early influences in Monroe to head coaching stops at English Valley and Wilton, a career-shaping graduate assistant stint at Ball State, eight years at Dike-New Hartford, and taking the Dowling job in 2005. He explains why he stayed in high school coaching despite college opportunities, emphasizing family timing, and discusses relationships with Kirk Ferentz and Reese Morgan. Wilson outlines his program-building values—hard work, accountability, relationships—plus feeder-system involvement, communication, expectations, and daily goal focus to combat complacency, along with traits he looks for in players and the benefits of multi-sport participation.

    Landan & Levi Paulsen | WUW 693

    We catch up with former Hawkeyes Landan and Levi Paulsen in Kalona, Iowa, joking about local businesses, Amish country, and sponsorship dreams (including Kalona Supernatural Dairy). The conversation turns to post-football health, major weight loss, and a rundown of numerous surgeries—highlighted by Levi’s gruesome big-toe capsule tear story. Landan shares how jiu-jitsu (training at Citadel in Iowa City) became his new competitive outlet and Kevin joins to add his own Citadel injury story, while Levi explains his shift into endurance sports and training for a three-day gravel/swim/run event. They discuss fueling, the psychology of pursuing hard challenges after Iowa football, anxiety around fall camp, fatherhood updates, and how Landan and Levi helped grow an F3 men’s fitness/community group built on Fitness, Fellowship, and Faith.

    Kick Times, 24 Team Playoff, New Punt Rule & More | WUW 692

    The crew catches up on life updates—DFW golf events, BottleRock, Kevin’s Hawaii trip, and dad duties—before diving into sports. They discuss Colorado teams’ recent disappointments, Kluver’s upcoming CrossFit competition adding combine-style tests (40, 5-10-5, broad and vertical), and Iowa football kickoff times for UNI, Northern Illinois, Iowa State (a night Cy-Hawk game at Kinnick), and Nebraska (11 a.m. on Black Friday). They debate the proposed 24-team College Football Playoff and potential changes like eliminating conference championships, weigh how expansion affects regular-season meaning, and react to a new punt rule restricting motion and formations, including numbering-workaround details. The episode includes sponsor mentions (FanDuel, Grey’s Gourmet To Go, Illini Golf, Urology Center of Iowa) and previews upcoming summer episodes and guests.

    Anthony Gair | WUW 691

    Anthony is from Plano, Texas, settling in there after relocating during his youth due to Hurricane Katrina. Kluv and Gair talk about reconnecting after nearly a decade, balancing fitness with family life, and competing in a HYROX relay in Houston with Drape, Tevaun, and a friend, where they beat a team including Christian Kirksey and Anthony Hitchens and plan to race again in November in Dallas. Gair describes his training approach (F45 HYROX simulations, running 10–15 miles per week, and researching online) and mentions tearing his quad in December. He recounts his path from New Orleans to Dallas after Hurricane Katrina, choosing Iowa over Arizona and Stanford based on relationships, adjusting to college speed and the safety playbook, and earning early special teams action. They discuss NIL’s pros and cons, especially transfers weakening long-term alumni networks, and Garrett’s entrepreneurship certificate, including his Track Slides invention and pitching to Daymond John.

    Fullback Wheel Route, Drake Gets Fired, D-Line Concerns | WUW 690

    In an OG Wash Up Walk Ons episode, the crew riffs on kids’ movies and parenting, then dives into injury and recovery talk, including worsening ankle pain, post-surgery issues, and how shoulder vs. lower-body rehab affects daily life. Drake discusses lingering shoulder damage, workouts as everything hurts, and weighing a move—possibly to Austin—while the group jokes about longevity, head injuries, and CTE. They shift to UFC topics, including betting against fighters who miss weight, weight-cut recovery methods, and a White House fight card with concerns about outdoor conditions. The conversation returns to Iowa football with reactions to the “Iowa Hard Knocks” All Access episodes, hype around WR Tony Diaz, questions about defensive experience and the D-line, quarterback chatter, and naming the best route technicians from their era.
