Rucker to leave Iowa

The Iowa football team is down one defensive back after Malik Rucker has been granted permission to transfer. He would have been a sophomore for the Hawkeyes this season.

The Minneapolis native recorded 5 tackles in six games during his redshirt freshman season in 2014.

“We have honored Malik’s request to be released from his scholarship, and we wish him well in the future,” Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz said.
