The Iowa Hawkeyes just made a coaching move that brings a staggering amount of football wisdom to the program. Head coach Kirk Ferentz has brought in Tom Moore, an 87-year-old former NFL head coach and proud Hawkeye alum, to serve as a senior consultant to the head coach and offensive advisor. Moore is a four-time Super Bowl champion, and his resume is the kind that makes any football fan sit up and take notice.

"I have known Tom Moore for over a decade and am thrilled that he has agreed to join our program in an advisory role," Ferentz said. "Coach Moore has had a long and very successful career in football. He was a player at Iowa, coached at the collegiate level, and spent many years working alongside Hall of Fame coaches in the National Football League. I am grateful that a four-time Super Bowl champion will share his wisdom and perspectives with us—coaches and players."

Moore's journey with the Hawkeyes started on the field, where he played quarterback from 1958 to 1960. After graduating from the University of Iowa, he jumped straight into coaching, launching a career that would span decades and touch nearly every level of the sport. In college, he made stops at Dayton, Wake Forest, Georgia Tech, and Minnesota before making the leap to the pros.

Once in the NFL, Moore became a coaching journeyman in the best sense. His resume includes stints with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Minnesota Vikings, Detroit Lions, New Orleans Saints, Indianapolis Colts, New York Jets, Tennessee Titans, Arizona Cardinals, and most recently, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Along the way, he worked with legends like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, winning Super Bowls with each. That kind of experience is priceless, especially for a program looking to develop its next generation of quarterbacks.

For Iowa, this hire couldn't come at a better time. The Hawkeyes are focused on grooming young signal-callers Jeremy Hecklinski and Hank Brown. Having Moore around to share insights from his time working with two of the greatest quarterbacks in history gives those players a direct line to championship-level knowledge. It's not just a coaching addition—it's a master class in football.
