Culture is one of those buzz words in team sports. Every team wants it and winning squads usually have it. There’s no question that the Iowa football program has a strong positive culture and that is on display with the Hawkeye defensive backs.

One Tuesday we heard Deshaun Lee talk about the positive influence that players like Jermari Harris has had on him. He also spoke about how he is doing the same thing Harris did for him for a young player like Jaylen Watson, who is in the midst of his freshman year. They both talk with pride about being a mentor for younger players.
