Iowa Football Recruiting

Players from Iowa on ISU's two deeps that Iowa didn't offer:

Akers
Good-Jones
Meeker
Knipfel
Kleinow
Hummel
Vance

Players they did offer on the two deeps:

Newell
Downing


Crazy the amount of talent they let go out of Eastern Iowa. The Good-Jones and Meeker ones were huge misses looking back with how their OL depth turned out from that class. Vance is going to end up being a big miss too IMO

In before resident numbnutz trolls yeahbuddy and derpycy say, "Were these commitable offers?"

Maybe it is just me but I thought cytwins’ latest faux jab at Iowa was that Iowa didn’t offer. I would assume that if Iowa didn’t offer by default it wouldn’t be commitable.
 
So a 6th round draft pick or second team All American wouldn't be a miss?

I tell you what when either of these occur then you go ahead and claim it was a miss. I have a feeling clone fans like you will claim it was a miss either way and would never accept any evidence otherwise.

If you don't think a player like Julian Good Jones was a miss you're an idiot

Newell never had an Iowa offer.

Iowa wanted Downing but he went to ISU because they could offer him a major in an Ag related field.

Kids choose their college for all sorts of different reasons, but for some reason, this is always your comment about Downing. Why don't you talk about all ISU/Iowa recruits like that?

Because Downing is one of the only ones I have seen publicly state that is why he chose the school he committed to.

I don't think it is fair to say that Downing committed to Iowa State over Iowa solely because of the Ag Business program. While it may have played a big decision, he also cited his relationship with the coaching staff and Campbell specifically.

Downing is a stud. He'll be an NFL player if he stays healthy. Word on the street is he's better than they could have hoped and they had high expectations for him coming in
