Hawkeye Report Podcast 617

  • Summary

  • We continue our summer podcasts and go off the beaten path a bit as we are joined by fantasy analyst for Yahoo Sports and Iowa alumni Andy Behrens. We talk about the Chicago area native landing at the University of Iowa and what attracted him to the Hawkeyes. What was his college experience like from a sports perspective going Iowa football and basketball games and some of the special games that he attended.

    Behrens is also a women's basketball fan even before Caitlin Clark arrived. He talks about being a season ticket holder and making the journey to their NCAA Tournament run this year, including being at the iconic win over LSU to clinch a trip to the Final Four. He's also a Chicago Sky season ticket holder, so how is he approaching the conflict between Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark.

    Then we discuss how he got involved as a fantasy sports writer and turned it into a career. We dive into the Iowa tight ends in fantasy football and how he was telling anyone who would listen heading into last season that they should draft Sam LaPorta. We wrap up talking about why we think college fantasy football has never taken off and what it would take for it to get going.
