All Iowa Football Team---Post Bowl Edition

Kid is one of my favorite players. I don't fault guys leaving for playing time, but always will respect a guy a little extra for sticking it out after getting passed up. Him and Amani are true team guys and deserve all the thanks being spread their way by fans and the staff.

Amani Hooker?
 
Crazy that ISU has better players and coaches, but aren't as good as Iowa.

Not necessarily. This thread isn't about which team has better players, but rather who are the single best player at each position. One team could be way better due to better depth and still not have the best players. Choosing a player from one team over another from the other team doesn't say one team was better, just that player was better.

Taking on player over another doesn't mean the second player was bad, just that on equal footing, one was likely better than another. On the running back debate, I would start with Hall (both schools wanted him), but Goodson wouldn't be a bad choice either (both schools wanted him too). I like both players. Stanley was a very productive college player, but hard to find any football experts not fans of Iowa or family members, that wouldn't pick Purdy first. Offensive line is a bit harder to judge from a casual fan basis as watching on TV you don't often get to focus there unless there was a penalty. Having said that, Wirfs would be my first choice of linemen. Jackson has excellent talent as well, but likely not as special a year as he hoped. If picking the best offensive linemen, I might pick both of them and JGJ and then slide one of them to guard as the choices at guard aren't as strong.
 
Lol I remember we heard all off season how good he was and he didn't even last a full game

A year ago?

Anyone saying that would have been full of it considering Jones started the first game his junior season and then not another single game the rest of his career.

Beast on special teams though, always need guys like that.

Yeah must have been last off season you guys were all about him being a stud and he got benched right away

Last offseason as in one year ago? No way that is true. He started one game his junior year and was pulled after a half. Why would there be hype around him last offseason heading into his senior year?

Seemed to be a great person and locker room guy. Never clicked for him as a starter, but he was good on special teams. Need guys like that.

He did have some hype and then played an awful first game starting at MLB and was quickly replaced. He was out of place that whole game. His attitude never seemed to change though and was a great locker room guy and good at special teams. He was still an asset.

I'll let you in on a secret. He hasn't posted it before

I know that's why he can't come up with it. But he doesn't troll.

Nope, never posted it before, ever. Don't worry though, I copied it this time for quick reference, so I can post that when @CyTwins posts his one sagarin SOS metric that even he doesn't believe in.
