Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz remains mum on Brian Scherff's knee injury, Ott "ready to go"

Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz was evasive when discussing left tackle Brian Scherff's knee injury on the Big Ten teleconference on Tuesday.

Scherff sustained a knee injury during the Hawkeyes' win over Ball State on Saturday. Although the media reported that Scherff underwent knee surgery, Ferentz would not confirm. 

Ferentz did confirm that Drew Ott, who, as Mark Moorehouse of The Gazette reported, was injured in a scooter accident Monday morning, will be ready for the rivalry game against Iowa on Saturday.
