Iowa Football Recruiting

Stick to basketball recruiting. Football is outside your realm. Fleck is done with recruiting and will have some trouble hanging on to what he has. Minnesota will finish in the 40s when all is said and done. That is a solid class. Iowa will be right there with them in the 40s probably. Now want to make a bet who develops those players better?

So Fleck is better at developing players than Ferentz now. Wow
 
Minnesota finished in the top 10 and beat Auburn and PSU. They were a really good team last year.


I always go a little light on bowl wins. When you push things out a month or so, it can really affect a team in different ways. Have several friends and relatives that are fans/attend/etc. while they said they had a great season, they didn't think they were a top ten team. They laughed about their schedule. Told me they beat one team with a pulse and that put them there.
 
If you had 5 reputable metrics saying Iowa had a tougher schedule you would have posted them. You haven't and you won't. Either back up that you're saying or stop making stuff up

I have posted them several times before, easy to search for them. I'm not sure why you are lying about not remembering me posting them. Your response was simply they were't legit metrics, which I'm sure is what you want to post again.

Tough to know for sure but I think Minney's WRs would've abused your DBs.

Minnesota would have destroyed ISU. ISU was 1-6 vs bowl eligible teams. Minnesota beat two top 15 teams, and their only losses were to top 15 teams. No way they lose to ISU last year.

Not sure I'd go that far. Might've been a good game. ISU brings a different type of O than what Minney is used to seeing, I could see Purdy giving them fits.
 
Ehh, I feel like ISU see’s WR’s as good as theirs on a weekly basis.

They would have been a handful for sure though.

On a weekly basis? You're saying Kansas, Kansas St., Texas Tech, West Virginia had WRs as good as Minney's? Bateman was 3rd team All-American, and he and Johnson were both 1st team All-B1G.

I think that's a stretch.
