Iowa Football Recruiting

Here are my top 10 players when combining both 2021 classes as they stand today...

The top 10 matters because usually only 6-7 guys out of a 20+ signee class really play significant minutes and make big impacts. Yes, I know there are exceptions.

Top 10

1 David Davidkov
2 Myles Purchase
3 Max Llewellyn
4 Tyler Moore
5 Beau Stephens
6 Eli Sanders
7 Keagan Johnson
8 Malik Verdon
9 Howard Brown
10 Connor Colby

Honorable Mentions

Tyler Maro is probably 11 and Jeff Bowie is probably 12.

Jaylin Noel and Brody Brecht are a wash talent-wise. Beau Freyler and Cooper Dejean are basically the same dudes (6'2" 195 ultra athletes).

Im completely shocked that all of the lower ranked recruits that catapult up your rankings are ISU guys.

I think it’s good, but I’d have Dejean over Colby. I think he’s going to be a stud.
 

Basically the whole list. Every Iowa guy is "under" his 247 ranking and every ISU guys is "above" his 247 ranking. I mean I wonder why? The two biggest whiffs are:

Colby #10, LOL, dude had an early offer from OSU
Myles Purchase #2? I mean seriously I know that Iowa tried to come in late, but even a late Iowa offer doesn't bump him up that high
 
It is funny Bruce wanted on board in Ames and we told him no so he's going to try to recruit against us out of spite

Bruce picked Iowa when ISU wanted him really badly. Seems like you are the spiteful one talking about Bruce when you said this after he picked Iowa.

Good pickup. Iowa State wanted him as an RB. I honestly thought he'd end up in Ames
 
Yes. Then he tried to hop off and come to Ames after the real Kirk Ferentz came to light and we told him no

ISU and Iowa wanted him for different positions. He wanted to play WR, so he went to the school that was giving him the opportunity.

Multiple factors:
We wanted him at RB and had Silas already.
Before the scandal stuff.
He wanted to play WR
