Hardt or Hartzell?
The Des Moines Register reports not one, but two Iowa natives with Bucknell athletic department ties could be candidates to succeed Bob Bowlsby as Iowa's athletics director.

Former Bucknell A.D. Rick Hartzell, now at Northern Iowa, his alma mater, is one of the names on the Register's list.

Also on that list is Hartzell's successor at Bucknell, current Bison A.D. John Hardt, an Iowa alum who was a walk-on defensive lineman on the 1981 Hawkeye Rose Bowl team. Hardt, who also holds a law degree from Iowa, is from Charles City, Iowa.

Like Hartzell, who was an assistant A.D. at Northwestern early in his career, Hardt has Big Ten experience. Hardt once was a an associate A.D. at Michigan State.
