The OLine at ISU does need work, I’ll agree with that. To me, the number of starts is far understated. I’m more concerned about getting guys locked in there and keeping them healthy.

- BF = Great
- Stanley = great
- O-Line = Good
- Fant = Best in Football
- RB (Wadley) = great
- WR's = mediocre or even sub par

I’ll take a stab. BF was in his first year as OC, not great. Stanley was good, not great. His accuracy needs to improve. The online was good at times but inconsistent, which may have been the watchword for the Iowa offense, inconsistent. Fant is the best college right end I saw last year. Walleye would have been an awesome change of pace guy, he was very good. The less said about the WRs the better, although Easley has a chance.
The OL was inconsistent, you lost your two best OL by far but your tackles are both in the top 5 in the state? Lol that doesn't add up
Dude, your OL will come around. Give it time. You're just being silly.
I didn’t say they were bad. They gave a beatdown to a pretty good tOSU defensive line. They were inconsistent. The tackles really played well the second half of the year. Again, they are two of the five best linemen
You're greatly overestimating them or I've been lied to because they were getting used as the excuse for the offense sucking after the season. Good Jones, Knipfel and Meeker were better than them last year
Meeker would be either #3 or #4 OT for us. Would be tight between him and Kallenberger. Jackson, Wirfs, Render, Jones, Knipfel would be the OL with Render/Jones interchangeable at C. You should be proud of this, MC is taking solid cues.
Meeker was better than Wirfs and Jackson last year. They have a higher ceiling though IMO but right now they haven't proven anything
Haha, interesting attempt. Everyone knows Iowa is O-Line U. It's a good thing that MC is trying to model the program after KF, so you might get there. Give it time.
Facts suck don't they
Bryce Meeker, 75.9 — Meeker played 478 snaps (compared to Campos’ 875) due to injury, but excelled when he did play, especially later in the season. He had a pass blocking grade of 80.0 and according to PFF College and he allowed only one sack in 270 pass blocking snaps.
Yeah that's why he'd be either #3 or #4 OT on our depth chart.
