Iowa Football Recruiting

[SouthernCy]

Wirfs is a slam dunk for me anywhere from 3 on. I wouldn't draft Eppy before 20.

Wirfs is an absolute beast. He may be the best player to ever come out of Iowa, IMO

 

[TRYHARDER]

You literally just proved my point lmao. I said Iowa is on average a 7-5 to 8-4 team.The stats prove it. Thanks. Please come again.

He has 5 top 10 finishes in 21 years. Is that bad? Are there some down seasons? sure, but he has proven over his career that he can continue to bounce back from the down years. Again, Campbell is a good coach and has done a good job. You are fortunate to have him. He has a lot left to accomplish to have the type of career KF has had. He very well could do that. Your hope should be that he stays in Ames and accomplishes is there and not someplace else.

ISU wanted him for TE only. He wanted to play DE.

I think I heard this as well. Do you have a breakdown of what teams wanted him as a DE and what teams wanted him as a TE?

 

[5 card straight]

How many of those ranked teams scheduled a power5 team for a noncon game?

Wisconsin played 6 games against final top 20 opponents. What's your point?

 

[5 card straight]

We played the 5th hardest schedule in the entire country. You guys got the 30th. Apples and oranges

You're using a jokey Sagarin index.

But it sure helps when you get two games outside the weaker Big 12 against final top 15 teams.

The instate game does us no favors. You got a top 15 team while we got #28 at best.

It's interesting because it's made up. So not only are you an idiot, but you're a liar.
Oladokun has 12 P5 offers including Iowa
Robert Army has 10 P5 offers including ISU. I don't need to look through a single other ISU recruit to know you are lying.

Wrong. Oladokun also posted offers from Indiana, North Carolina, and Duke on his twitter page that never got updated on 247. That makes 14 P5 offers other than Iowa, same as Iowa State’s entire recruiting class.

You going to apologize now for calling me names when I was right and you were wrong?

 

[Lemmiwinks]

You guys bought into Benji? Yikes.

I'll be honest, no idea how accurate it is. The fact it's even a point of contention was enough for me to hit the emoji though. I'm a simple man.

Sounds like Beau Stephens committed to Iowa. Offensive lineman with offers from LSU, Michigan, Texas A&M, Oklahoma State, and a whole bunch of others.

Wait, please tell us you stalk ISU recruit's Twitter accounts too.

No, I just assumed that 247 was on top of things with the Iowa State recruits because there aren’t that many offers to keep track of.

I sure has hell hope ISU fans can laugh at this zinger. I'd be rolling if this was said about our basketball recruiting class.

Have you checked their Twitter accounts tho?

Since you bring up basketball and after reading Brodie aka Benji's posts about his national championship IM Basket 24K gold plated shirt he supposedly one, he's all about talking everything up. Mr. Arrogant i guess you could call him.

 

[iahawks]

1. It's early
2. CMC is getting the guys he really wants and I trust his eye for talent and what he needs/wants for his program.
3. CMC is a significantly better coach than KF and will produce better teams.

I agree.

He has done well so far I will give you that. But his recruiting seems to be slipping some and some of the momentum of being the new hire has worn off.

He has proven to be a good coach but I wouldn’t say he is better than KF at this point.

He has one in the last decade

 

[Brandon]

He was offered both offense and defense there so that's not true.

He's also going to get upgraded to the highest 3 star ranking in the next 247 update with potential to become a 4 star.

Those don't exactly grow on trees in Iowa.

I can find his quote if you'd like numb nuts
