Evan James and the Legacy of No. 8 | Iowa Hawkeyes Football News

Iowa’s football season kicks off in eight days, and they’re spotlighting players by jersey number—today: Evan James, the dynamic wideout donning No. 8. A second-year transfer from Furman, James brings elite talent—he racked up 796 yards and 7 TDs last season while also contributing on the ground. Once a high school recruit with offers from Ole Miss, he’s poised to be a hidden gem in the Big Ten. With Iowa’s aggressive portal strategy, James could be the breakout star we didn’t see coming. And hey, No. 8 has pedigree—former QB Chuck Hartlieb, who still holds Iowa’s single-season passing record, wore it. So as kickoff nears, all eyes are on James to see if he can turn heads and make his mark.
