Kirk Ferentz, Norm Parker, and Ken O'Keefe all spoke to the press yesterday. They all had a lot of good things to say about the team and how spring practice is coming along. One highlight from yesterday was Parker's quote "We can be as good as last year -- might be better." This is said about a defense that only allowed 13 points a game, giving up only 17 touchdowns all year. O'Keefe had lots to say about the Offensive Line, particularly Dace Richardson who is returning from a knee injury and is "great to see him back. " Kirk Ferentz praised Ricky Stanzi's leadership ability as well as gave an update on Jewel Hampton's minor injury.
