Did you ever get a chance to look at that VIP info on Foster I linked for 247? I know you have an account over there and @benjimill and @YeahBuddy didn't believe me so I was hoping you could confirm
The basis for the ranking you quoted, is performance based on draft picks (not recruiting rankings).
You quoted a post saying that iowa coaches don’t worry about rankings when recruiting. They care about finding kids that they can make into draft picks.
Just trying to get clarity here, because your rebuttal stinks

Not trying to be a d*ck but if that is their #1 priority, you should be disappointed as a fan.The basis for the ranking you quoted, is performance based on draft picks (not recruiting rankings).

Derpy's ongoing narrative is how well Iowa does putting players in the league. This article destroy's derpy's narrative. If you haven't followed derpy's narrative I would understand that you may be confused. If you have been following...then not much I can say to you to help you get dialed in. right @derpyherky ?The basis for the ranking you quoted, is performance based on draft picks (not recruiting rankings).

A hok fan that can finally relate(things not making much sense at all) to most of derpycy's posts.
For the record- Iowa had moved on from Newsome a while ago. It’s not clear whether that is because they like Hunt and Fox better, or whether it is because Newsome told them he wasn’t interested.
Newsome had been rolling in CB's from recruiting insiders for weeks (not that those are the be-all end-all).
You guys have played the "we didn't want him anyways" on just about every football recruit you've missed on for two years now
More like you just like to hear your fingers type. No one on here cares minus you and a few of your brethren.
It's a really tired narrative, and wrong in every respect, that Hawkeye fans continue to believe that they recruit in a manner different than other schools. It quite frankly reeks of arrogance. There's not a single team in the country that recruits "based on stars".
Iowa. Recruits. Exactly. The. Same. As. Everybody. Else.
While the article wanders around a lot, one takeaway is that Iowa was within 3 spots of making the top 5 underachieving teams...that is, a team that has a bunch of NFL-level talent, but doesn't get the expected team results given the talent. So while Kirk does develop individuals, he is more challenged in developing a team. Got it.
