Even with the loss of defensive end Lukas Van Ness to the NFL Draft Iowa’s deepest position group remains the defensive line. Senior tackle Noah Shannon had eight and-a-half tackles for loss last season and for a while considered early entry into the NFL Draft.
Shannon says there are areas he can improve in.
Shannon says as a position group the defensive line has great chemistry.
Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says having Shannon and Joe Evans return for next season were two of the key players coming back.
After tying for the team lead in sacks last season with six and-a-half, junior Deontae Craig is expected to have a big season at defensive end.
Iowa State junior Jaylin Noel says he is ready to become the Cyclones’ primary receiver. Noel had 6o catches and three touchdowns last season and has worked hard in the hopes of replacing All-American receiver Xavier Hutchinson.
Noel says with Hutchinson gone he has become more of a leader this spring.
Noel says he has been working at slot and as an outside receiver.
Noel says he learned a lot from Hutchinson.
(Radio Iowa) – Senate Republicans say their overall target for state spending in the next budgeting year matches the one Governor Kim Reynolds proposed in January — but they’re still working on the details. Republicans on the Senate Appropriations Committee have voted to advance four bills with a general outline of WHERE money might be spent in dozens of state agencies, but no mention of HOW MUCH money should be spent.
Senator Tim Kraayenbrink, a Republican from Fort Dodge, says the goal is to come to some agreement on these bills with House Republicans, who are proposing slightly more spending in certain areas. “Our first intent would be to come to an agreed upon amount as well as language,” Kraayenbrink says, “so that we could may substitute or amend or whatever needs to be done to get it off the floor and get out of here in a timely manner.”
Senator Janet Petersen, a Democrat from Des Moines, says with the governor’s major realignment of state government operations underway, more scrutiny is necessary. “I believe the public should have a chance to weigh in once they see the budget numbers,” Petersen says, “once they see which staff will be working for the state of Iowa and which won’t.”
Senate Republicans say they’ve met with agency leaders to ask questions, get answers and set up a budget framework — but they’ll figure out the spending details later after negotiations with House Republicans and the governor.
House Republicans released more detailed budget numbers last week and have held some public meetings with state officials to discuss government operations.
(Radio Iowa) – Iowa’s spring turkey hunting season is scheduled to start soon. Nate Carr, a conservation officer with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, says Iowa’s youngest hunters will fire the first shots. “Youth season is going to get us kicked off April 7th,” Carr says. “It’ll go on for a few days and then we’ll get into our regular spring turkey hunting seasons which is broken up into four different seasons.” Those seasons start April 10th, 14th and 19th, with the final season running April 26th through May 14th.
Carr says the turkey has a storied past in Iowa as the pioneers had to hunt to survive. “Back in the late 1800s, early 1900s, early settlers were pretty hard on our wildlife here in Iowa, turkeys included,” Carr says. “They were actually extirpated from the state, which means they were completely wiped out within the state of Iowa and the last wild turkey was seen around 1910.” Carr says it was a lengthy recovery process for the big birds, which vanished from our soil for more than five decades.
“It was a long road to get them back in the ’60s through different reintroduction efforts,” Carr says. “We were able to get some birds from Missouri who really had a similar issue, but they were starting to see their wild population come back. So we transplanted some birds from Missouri, up into Iowa in different locations and have really seen them be fairly successful throughout Iowa.”
The D-N-R usually issues around 50-thousand tags for spring turkey hunting season, with roughly 22-percent getting filled, which equates to a harvest of around 11,500 birds. Learn more at www.iowadnr.gov.
