RON MALY HAS BEEN WATCHING THE PARADE GO BY FOR A LONG TIME. THIS IS ONE OF HIS WEBSITES.

Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said today that sophomore defensive backs Torrey Campbell and Kevin Buford have left the football program. The news was sent to me by Hawkeye sports information director Steve Roe. Campbell has left the squad to pursue fulltime participation with the Hawkeye track and field team. Buford has informed the Iowa coaching staff that he will transfer to another school. Buford (5-10, 180), was one of seven true freshmen to see action in 2012. He played in nine games, primarily on special teams, recording one solo tackle and four assists. Buford is from Canton, Mich. Campbell (5-11, 183) is a native of Naples, Fla. After a redshirt season in 2011, he played in one game a year ago, but had no statistics. Campbell competes in sprint and hurdle events for Iowa's track team. Iowa concludes spring workouts with an open practice at 2 p.m. Saturday in Kinnick Stadium.
