Iowa’s Logan Jones says it only took him a few days to make the decision to move to offense. The former Lewis Central standout began his Hawkeye career as a defensive lineman before being approached during winter conditioning about the opportunity to move to center to replace All American Tyler Linderbaum.

Jones says he is still learning as the new season approaches.

Jones says one of the biggest adjustments has been making the blocking calls at the line of scrimmage.

Iowa offensive line coach George Barnett says Jones made the transition quickly.

Barnett says Jones just needs game experience.

The Hawkeyes open September third at home against South Dakota State.
