What if the University of Iowa built a Mount Rushmore to honor former Iowa football and basketball players?

We’ve selected 16 former players and set up a bracket-style tournament to determine which four Hawkeyes will make the cut. Once the Final Four is set, there will be a final vote to decide who is the greatest former Hawkeye of All-Time.

[…] is on Iowa's Mt Rushmore? Hawkeye Mount Rushmore Fun poll in a neat set up __________________ Jon Miller Publisher jonmiller@hawkeyenation.com […]
So coaches are not allowed, only players? Hayden Fry NEEDS to be on there. People like Howard Jones, Evy, and Bucky O’Connor also need to be considered even though they were coaches. Their impact merits it.
why is this limited to football and basketball? I think you will find most Hawkeye fans would argue that Dan Gable has made more of an impact than any of the coaches or players selected above.
I’m glad they included players only, although I think they should have included wrestlers too. Coaches have too much presence in college sports. They would shadow the players. If Mt. Rushmore included the coaches, the only player to make it would be Nile Kinnick, and your Mt. Rushmore would be Kinnick, Hayden, Gable, and either Stringer, Lute, Evy, or Ferentz. Give the coaches their own Mt. Rushmore, and let the players (including wrestlers!!!!!!!) have their own.
