Just days after being named Football Guy of the Week on the popular Barstool Sports podcast “Pardon My Take,” Hawkeye football head coach Kirk Ferentz is set to appear on the show alongside Dan “Big Cat” Katz and PFT Commenter.

Ferentz earned the honor after engaging in a postgame interview following Iowa’s win over Nebraska with a bloody lip after head-butting quarterback Nate Stanley.

Ferentz won Football Guy of the Week by beating Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel, Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott, and Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher.

The victory was by a landslide, as Ferentz picked up 62 percent of the 14,767 votes cast. Fisher came in second with 14 percent, while Vrabel and McDermott finished with 8 percent.

Ferentz’s appearance will come just two weeks after former Iowa and current San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle served as a guest on the podcast.
