Iowa Football Recruiting

Reactions: Halincandenza
Cooper DeJean is a hell of an athlete....especially for a 1A school. I watched him play the state semi-final game this season. Iowa is recruiting him for the wrong spot....he is not a D1 safety at this point (not saying he won’t be in a couple years in their program) In my opinion he should be playing slot receiver at Iowa.
Now if he wanted to drop down a level...he could definitely play QB if he wanted
 
I really don't see why the trolls haven't fled.

Just looking at present and future the Hoks are screwed.

QB we're better now and have a better future
RB exactly the same as QB
WR exact same as above
TE same
Oline Iowa's strength our young guys are going to be really good.

DL we're better now recruiting looks like it will continue.
LB seriously???
DB we're better now and until KKkkirk's gone recruiting the CB position is going to be next to impossible.
 
Wow, I knew the Big10 was super tough, but man these SOS are crazy tough.

Nebraska #1
Penn St. #2
Maryland #3
Purdue #4
Rutgers #5
Michigan St. #6
Wisconsin #7
Northwestern #8
Indiana #9
Iowa #11
Michigan #15
Illinois #18
Minnesota #17
Ohio St. #26

Kansas #35
TCU #36
OSU #44
Baylor #53
Texas Tech #54
K-State #55
Texas #58
ISU #59
OU #71
WVU #77

The Big10 West is the best conference in college football by a large margin, and the Big12 is behind the ACC Coastal and Pac12 North.

I said it before the year started that I wished Iowa played in an easy conference like the Big12, and it looks like it is playing out that way. This really isn't even debatable as I'm sure this site would never question the Sagarin rating as it is the go to Gold standard here.

It's pretty tough to justify any of the BIG SOS given you don't play any games against anyone outside of the BIG...obviously we will see if there truth to the numbers through the bowl games. It's just a guessing game right now.

So every year that Sagarin said the Big12 was good and they crapped the bed in the bowl games, the Big12 was actually bad then?

Has been gone for months only to come back drop this turd of a post. I see the time off didn't improve your garbage posts at all

Looks like I was right again
I'm pretty glad you are hammering so hard how Hall is so much better than Goodson. That is a sure fire way to know that Goodson will probably end up much better than Hall. Your crap typically ends up flaming.
Lol
I think Iowa fans point out that Goodson and Hall were pretty similar except that Hall got much more playing time.
My favorite
Petras will be good for Iowa, will probably make it 5 of the last 6 Iowa starting QB to be drafted into the NFL.

So using Sagarin SOS is dropping turds and is garbage? Just a few weeks ago Sagarin was considered the gold standard on this site. Weird how you now say it is turds and garbage.

So Goodson isn't as good as Hall like you spent months arguing? Got it

No, Goodson has been good, but Hall has been on another level for sure. You really can't blame me for not believing your predictions though on players. I mean you also claimed Warren was the second coming after one good year. You claimed Allen was > Fant and Hock. I mean the list goes on and on. So I basically just take the opposite of what you say and go with that, it proves to be correct more often that way.

Allen can block, Fant and Hockenson can not. That's the difference. Coaches notice these things which is why Allen was second team all conference last year, Fant was third team and Hockenson was nothing

I think we're aware and I said I was wrong about that. You said spent all off season hyping up a bad RB

Goodson has been bad? 5 games, 6 TD's and averaging 5.5 YPC and 90 YPG rushing is bad now? So you think Hall was bad last year when he scored 9 TD's in 12 games, averaged 5.0 YPC and 75 YPG rushing?
 
@CyTwins do you still think this about Nixon? Nixon has 28 tackles with 8.5 of them for a loss in 5 games. That is pretty good production, wouldn't you say? I think his draft stock is gonna be pretty good this year, probably the top DL selected from the state in the draft.

Those are pretty terrible stats vs the worst P5 offenses in the country.

Nixon isn't better than Heflin or Gholston and certainly isn't better than Enyi, Bailey, McDonald and Petersen so yeah the "best DL in the state" is actually 7th best

He's rated as one of the worst RBs in all of CFB. Sargent (who isn't good) is much better
