Howe: Taking A Crack at Iowa's '22 Spring Two-Deep

Early Look at How the Hawkeye Depth Chart Might Shake Out Heading into Next On-Field Phase

IOWA CITY, Iowa - I'll preface this piece by saying this projection is to be taken as such. And I'm not calling it a way-to-early 2022 Iowa Football depth chart prediction because that's silly. 

Why do it if it's way too early? I could just wait. But what fun would that be? It's early January. We have eight months until next season kicks off. 

Let's kill some time guessing about something that's guaranteed to be less than 100 percent accurate, way less. Maybe we can argue about it and call each other names on social media. 

Sounds like a blast, right?

We'll have to take some liberties by guessing upcoming player decisions about their futures. If you don't see someone on the below two-deep, I'm postulating that they're moving on. 

And, again, it's a depth chart for beginning spring football. I'll be sure to make myself look more like a fool publishing more of them throughout the offseason. 

Here we go...
