Iowa head football coach Kirk Ferentz and wide receivers coach Jon Budmayr have been suspended for one game due to recruiting violations involving quarterback Cade McNamara, according to multiple sources including The Athletic and ESPN. The violations occurred in 2022 before McNamara officially entered the transfer portal. It's unclear whether the suspensions were imposed by the NCAA or the University of Iowa, but Ferentz is expected to address the media for further clarification. McNamara, who previously played for Michigan, committed to Iowa shortly after entering the transfer portal. The suspensions mean the coaches will miss the season opener against Illinois State on August 31.
