Iowa center Logan Jones is poised for a big senior season. The former Lewis Central star was moved from defensive line to center in the spring of 2022 as the Hawkeyes needed a replacement for All-American Tyler Linderbaum. Success was not immediate, but Jones says the patience offensive line coach George Barnett displayed paid off. Jones was named a third team All-Big Ten selection in 2023.

Jones credits him teammates for helping the transition to offensive line.

Jones is part of an experienced offensive line that hopes to help the offense make progress this season. Jones says it is a unit with outstanding chemistry.

Barnett says Jones has become an outstanding communicator at center.

The Hawkeyes open August 31st by hosting Illinois State.
