The truth is now lame? Iowa has recruited better than ISU for how many straight years and CMC in year two just put the most talented team in the state on the field every week last year. He's proven he's better at developing and evaluating talent

ISU was the better team last year, that is a fact not an opinion unless you are dumb enough to think AP votes don't count
You said ISU had the better team every week last season which is wrong. Iowa won in non-historic JTS.
Also, you think the ISU team that trotted out to lose at WVU was better than the Iowa team that trounced OSU on the first weekend of November?
B-A-D effort.
Sorry, ISU was the better team overall last season while Iowa has always recruited better than ISU. I actually think KF is pretty good at evaluating and developing talent (not near as good as he used to be) but CMC is elite at it
How is that being a homer?
ISU was better than Iowa last year - FACT not an opinion
Iowa recruits better than ISU in terms of recruiting rankings - FACT not an opinion
To get this back on topic, let's talk about some incoming players that I'm hearing really good things about that are either in state players or players that Nick Saban/Jimbo Fisher wanted
Trevor Downing: Heard he's better than they could have expected. No wonder Iowa rolled out the red carpet for him
Colin Newell: Projected starter. No wonder Iowa offered him
Brock Purdy: They knew he would be good but even better than they could have imagined. This is one Saban and Jimbo will lose sleep over.
Zach Peterson: Future pro. No wonder ISU took him over Waggoner

I grew up on the border. Do a lot of biz in MN. Have many relatives there. Theyhonestly have no interest in Iowa. They don’t care. If the hawks are brought up they just say they are an awful fan base. And hate dealing with them.
I just gave you some serious info but it's OK I know you want all those guys to suck
Newell being projected as starter is crazy good for the future of the line. I know he was scout team player of year last year.
Says the team that had fans rush the opposing teams field. Even tore down their goal posts. That is a large obsession.
So
Sorry to keep straying from the topic, fellow Cyclone fans, but one last thing. I agree with YeahBuddy about it being pro sports town. There's absolutely no question about it. It's not a coincidence that the Gophers' last football national championship was in 1960, and then the Twins and Vikings showed up in 1961.
I assume thats where a lot of the hatred comes from. A lot of good memories in the Dome as an Iowa fan.
