Iowa Football Recruiting

Why did he hurt King and Hyde’s draft stock by playing them out of position at CB instead of their NFL position Safety?

I still don't understand why Iowa fans think Parker is so good. He's lost you a bunch of games, consistently is missing on recruits and he's doing his job in the Big Ten West. Sure he's put some guys in the NFL over his 20 years but has he even won any awards or anything that has to do with how he does on a college football field?

He didn’t. Parker played King and Hyde in multiple positions. Probably why they make as much today as they do.

So who are all these DB coaches that have produced more NFL talent than Parker? I mean if he isn’t one of the top DB coaches then there has to at least be 25 or so that have produce more talent than Parker. I eagerly await your list.

Link to King playing anything on defense but corner at Iowa?

So to summarize Parker cost Iowa the game against Purdue last year AND cost Desmond King millions of dollars and Iowa fans like him. Truly mind boggling
 
He played safety when Iowa went to nickel or dime coverages. That isn’t something they list in a depth chart. It is something that shows up on film for NFL scouts though.

King never played a snap of safety at Iowa that I can remember.

He may have slid inside to cover the slot when we went nickel.
