IOWA CITY, Iowa – The controversial settlement to a discrimination lawsuit involving members of the Iowa football team’s coaching staff, and the best start for the Iowa baseball team since 1942 were both discussed in great detail on Wednesday’s episode of the Hawk Fanatic radio show and podcast.

Our first guest was Iowa state auditor Rob Sand, who is pushing for Iowa Athletic Director Gary Barta to be fired in the wake of a fourth discrimination settlement under Barta’s watch.

Sand, who is against taxpayer dollars being used to help pay for the $4.175 million settlement, comes on approximately 30 minutes into the two-hour podcast and his segment lasts for about 25 minutes.

Heller comes on 90 minutes into the podcast and talks about his team’s 10-1 start, which is its best start since 1942, and about the three-game series at Texas Tech this weekend.
