How many 1st round NFL draft picks has KF developed and how many has ISU developed (all time)? I will hang-up and listen.

You must feel crushed for AL. Think how much choosing ISU will cost him. Ugh.
Not sure, not an NFL fan. ISU football has been historically awful pre CMC.
I feel horrible for him and any other clone football player that thought going to Iowa State would help them get to the NFL. It's really sad.
Does pre CMC include last year in your world? Because they were pretty awful.
Considering it is the dream of nearly 99% of these kids who play P5 football to eventually play in the NFL, I'd say ISU has become an expert in crushing kids dreams.
It could actually turn out ok. During his combine interviews it'd be pretty easy for him to make his case... if he'd gone to ND and dropped passes from an NFL-level QB it would look much worse than going to ISU and dropping passes from a middle linebacker.
Also, don't forget when Josey Jewell caught him from behind...and I believe Lazard had a good 10 yard head start on Jewell.
Saban would have been lucky to win 3 games last year with that roster. 9th > 14th. Like I said Rhoads worst class wasn't even ranked 14th in the conference and that class really hurt us.
This whole 9th in the Big 12 vs. 14th in the B1G is pretty surprising for you, almost beneath you. Almost. Iowa's 14th in the B1G class is ranked higher than ISU's 9th in the Big 12. I know it's gotta hurt, just surprising that you continue pushing that narrative when it's so obviously flawed. Plus we'll get a 4* DB in a few weeks, that'll be nice.
Riiiiiiiiiight! I'm sure in your world anything is possible. And like I said, there were actually more 2017 NFL draft picks in the Iowa vs Michigan game than the ENTIRE Big 12. That is a crazy stat, when you think about it. Talk about a dying conference.

ISU doesn't play in the Big Ten so I don't care. I'd much rather be 9th in my own conference than 14th.
Yeah, what a shame to only barely crack 2,400 yards with 16 TD's.
I guess he could have taken a similar route to ND's highest rated WR commit of that 2014 class.

Haha, exactly. You'd much rather be ranked higher in a lesser conference. Stuart Smalley approves.
Wasn't AL a top-10 WR recruit coming out of HS? And after his junior year in college his own coach said there was a good chance he wouldn't be drafted. That's not good.
