Beau is from Blue Springs, Missouri. He joined the Hawkeyes in the class of 2021 and became a massive contributor/starter for the Hawks over his final 3 seasons. On this episode Beau reacts to teammate Logan Jones calling him a “psychopath,” explaining his intense playing style and love of run-game dominance. He details how the offensive line senses opponents breaking, why the slow mesh didn’t fit Iowa’s identity, and what it was like blocking for QB Mark Gronowski, whose running ability changed the offense despite injury concerns. Bo reflects on moving from Iowa’s “dark years” to a Joe Moore Award-winning unit, crediting Coach Barnett’s culture rebuild, “person before player” emphasis, and Logan Jones’ leadership growth. He also covers NIL/revenue share benefits (including buying a house with his fiancée), camp routines and weigh-in/weight-loss stories, recruiting to Iowa because of its values, and his excitement for the NFL Combine with a goal of bringing “Iowa football” professionalism to the league.

Aaron Graves is from Dayton, IA and prepped at Southeast Valley High school. He became the youngest player to ever commit to the Hawkeyes just after his Freshman year and completely shut down his recruiting after verbally agreeing to be a Hawkeye. He joins the show from Texas where he’s training for combine/pro day drills while living with his wife and newborn. Graves recounts the hectic 48 hours around the Nebraska game when his son was born on Thanksgiving Day, including a late-night charter flight to Lincoln, skipping meetings, playing, returning straight to the hospital, and receiving a game ball and framed display after Iowa’s 40–16 win. He reflects on committing to Iowa as a sophomore after his first offer from Kirk Ferentz, growing up in Dayton, Iowa and Southeast Valley (a small district spanning 13 towns), playing multiple sports, winning the school’s first state title, and finishing as the program’s all-time leading basketball scorer. Graves discusses arriving at Iowa with the goal to control effort and preparation, earning early snaps and his first sack, and the wake-up call of playing at Ohio State as a freshman. He explains leadership growth into a starting role, the impact of older teammates in a roster now filled with fifth- and sixth-year players, and how Iowa approached NIL and revenue sharing by avoiding pay talk to prevent locker-room friction. Graves details graduating quickly—earning an associate degree from Iowa Central before high school, completing his exercise science bachelor’s in four semesters, and finishing a sport and recreation management master’s in three. He also addresses disappointment over not being invited to the NFL Combine, argues both he and Gronowski are deserving, and shares how Mark earned trust through competitiveness and steady improvement. The episode closes with Graves’ plan for making a 53-man roster and his confidence heading into Iowa’s pro day reunion with teammates.
