Bowl season is upon us and John and Tim have the privilege to talk with current Hawkeye Marching Band Drum Major Amanda Thomas. Amanda talks growing up loving marching bands, coming to Iowa to march and become an educator, her time in the mellie section, trying out for drum major, favorite memories, and how it's been this year working with two amazing Golden Girls in Kylene Spanbauer and Ella McDaniel. The three wish the Hawkeyes success at the Citrus Bowl on January 1st, and a grand time for the Hawkeye Marching Band.

While the HMB is down in Florida, the Alumni will take to the stands in Carver to play for the Men's Basketball team on the 29th and the Women's Basketball team on January 2nd. Come check them out!
