Iowa Football Recruiting

[CyTwins]

Hawks have moved on and so have the fans that I know of. You will too eventually.

So Iowa didn't want him? Lol!

Of course Iowa wanted him. As soon as it was clear Bollers didn’t want Iowa, they moved on.

 

[Brodie0]

Iowa obviously wanted Bollers - he was one of their highest priority guys. But at some point it apparently became clear to the Iowa staff that they weren’t getting any traction and they stopped recruiting Bollers. It happens.

I thought you said they mutually parted?

I've actually never heard this happen with an in state legacy recruit

 

[iahawks]

They did. Iowa couldn’t convince him to stay in state and play a 4-3.

So Iowa didn't want him? Lol!

How the hell would I know? I'm excited about the guys we do have. I'm not going to spend my time being concerned about kids we aren't getting. Are you spending your day worrying about the basketball transfers you've missed out on?

So what part of that was Iowa parting with him?

Probably the part where Iowa stopped recruiting Bollers so he went to the Des Moines register to complain about it.

I'm so confused. So Iowa stopped recruiting a legacy recruit they really wanted and then he complained about it? Why in the world would Ferentz stop recruiting a talent like Bollers who's a legacy?

maybe he took a sweatshirt? LOL

Good ole Eno. Can't believe Ferentz screwed that up

 

[Brandon]

I heard bollers' dad was critical of KF on some radio show and that's was the beginning of the end. Just a rumor though.

 

[mitchforcy]

He ain't coming here so I wouldn't get too excited about him.

 

[TheJackWePack5]

It happens. He wasn't a fit for a number of reasons and both sides mutually parted ways. It happens all the time in recruiting, just like it did with you guys and Sullivan.

Sullivan never really got a serious look from ISU.

Weird deal.

Link? I've heard it's us and Wisconsin now. He loves Campbell

 

[Lemmiwinks]

Iowa picked up a commitment from 3* Florida CB Jordan Oladokun today. Offers from Penn State, Virginia Tech, UNC, Pitt, Maryland, Iowa State, etc.

He’s HS teammates with high 3* RB Ricky Parks, and Iowa seems to be the heavy favorite there too. Iowa putting together another really nice class.

This is a really good pickup. Hope Iowa can hang on to him, especially now with the campus visit situation. Crazy to think he has more P5 offers than quite a few teams have collectively right now for the 2021 class.

 

[Shawker]

How many ISU wins did you predict for this past season?

Your predictions will always be THE BEST.

1976 makes the best predictions. They're completely based in fact and logic and not at all emotional or inflammatory.

Link? I've heard it's us and Wisconsin now. He loves Campbell

He's not going to ISU. Might as well not get your hopes up. He's going out of state.
