CJ Beathard | WUW 700
2w ago01:12:04Tap to summarizeFor Ep 700 we welcome NFL quarterback, Iowa Legend, C.J. Beathard, who shares updates on life in Tennessee with his wife Maddie and kids, including a third child due in November. CJ is from Franklin, Tennessee and chose the Hawkeyes after flipping from Ole Miss. We reminisce about Iowa football, including playing through injuries, the 2015 season’s close-game success and leadership, the Big Ten Championship, the North Dakota State loss as a major “what if,” and memorable moments like the Indiana dive and Michigan helmet-storming theft story. Beathard discusses recruiting (Ole Miss to Iowa), his views on NIL and the transfer portal’s impact on team bonds, and his NFL experiences with the 49ers and Jaguars, including a nervous but meaningful 2020 start.

The SWARM No Longer? w/Brad Heinrichs | WUW 699
3w ago01:07:24Tap to summarizeOn this episode of the podcast presented by FanDuel, Brad Heinrichs explains that The Swarm collective is shutting down because NIL rules changed last July, requiring deals over $600 to go through the NIL Go clearinghouse, creating long approval delays, reduced payouts, and eligibility risk if athletes are paid before approval. He outlines how Iowa’s $21M rev-share cap works, why above-the-cap money may increasingly flow through marketing arms like Learfield, and how Iowa’s Flight Funds differs by supporting under-the-cap payments with tax-deductible donations. The group discusses how individual NIL can still happen, with publicly traded companies like Apple bypassing NIL Go, and touches on Iowa’s quarterback battle and early betting lines, while reflecting on Swarm’s workload, recruiting pressures, and proposed fixes like multi-year player contracts.
