Iowa Football Recruiting

You struggle with this whole “English language” thing, don’t you? Iowa is one of Fidone’s finalists. So he’s already a “potential Hawkeye”.

Genius.
My goodness you're dense. Wouldn't the fact that we are one of his finalists make him a "potential Hawkeye" ? Most, including me, didn't think we had much of a chance with him. Now, with some things we've seen and heard in the last couple of weeks, I think we have a shot at landing him.

I’m dense? ROTFLMAO!

You really just had to double down, didn’t you? You could even make sense of my simple, straightforward statement versus your own. Dimwit.

“TRYHARDER”? Do not try. Do.

LOL. You want to patrol message boards for typos and grammar. Be my guest. It will keep you busy.
 
So are ISU fans disappointed with CMC early recruiting class? I mean right now the ISU class has an average rating of .833, which is considerable lower than CMC's last 3 classes (.852, .853, .848).

More importantly though there are very few P5 offers to the kids who have committed so far. I mean to have a few of those is fine, heck the Hawks always have several of them. To have the vast majority of ISU's commits not having any other P5 offers though is a big concern, or it would be for me.

Nope. He's proven to be a great talent evaluator
 
Ferentz has proven to be 100x better at that than CMC, but I would still be upset if the majority of our first 10 commits didn't have any other P5 offers.

Not really. Campbell doesn't have a hole in his evaluations like Ferentz does with RB and WR
 
Which position on special teams does he struggle with? I mean our punter tore his Achilles. Special teams was more of a coaching issue than recruiting issue IMO
Lol. Kicking is always an adventure for you. Def some coaching issues. No argument from me there.

What players with 0 P5 offers has CMC been so successful with? The most successful CMC guys have had other P5 offers. I mean Montgomery had an Illinois offer, Purdy had offers, Bailey had offers, Lima had offers, Kolar had an Oklahoma St. offer, Downing had offers. I mean the only ones I can think of off the top of my head is Butler and Rose.

Assalley is an 80% FG kicker. I don't think he's a good special teams coach but I don't think he has holes in his evaluations like Ferentz

Yeah getting Purdy over Bama and A&M was huge
 
Players with no other offers or one offer that are/were good outside of Rose and Butler

2016:
Payne
Wirtel
Soehner (only an Illinois offer)
Johnson (only a Rutgers offer)

2017:
Vance
Hummel
Newell (only Iowa)
Eaton (only WVU)

2018 and 2019 are probably too early to to tell but I know Johnson and King didn't have any P5 offers
