Let's see the output from typing

show interface status | i 4/20

show interface status | i 4/19

show ether sum

Can you verify the iSCSI was configured with LACP ?

Gi4/20 connected 210 a-full a-1000/100/1000BaseT

Gi4/19 connected 210 a-full a-1000 10/100/1000BaseT

8 Po8(SD)LACP Gi4/19(I) Gi4/20(I)

I am waiting on the tech to verify for me that he has the nic's set up properly.

Status is (I) which means is waiting for the LACP negotiation from the far end. The configuration at the iSCSI seems the likely suspect here.

You can go with unconditional etherchanneling and change the mode to on and see if it comes up. Make sure to remove the channel-protocol command, actually I never seen the use of it.
