Iowa Football Recruiting

[CyTwins]

I didn't realize Skyler Bell was actually a silent commit to Iowa until the racism stuff. He ended up at Wisconsin. That's a huge loss

I’m using %, because the Big12 has 10 teams and the Big10 West has 7.

So you contend the division that has had 31% of its teams ranked in the final AP top 25 is trash, but the conference that has had 32% of its teams ranked in the top 25 is super duper awesome. Good lord are you really this stupid?

Since you wanted to compare entire conference then the number shift. The Big10 has had 37% of it teams finished ranked in the final AP top 25 poll, and the Big12 32%.

Where did I EVER say that? I’ll wait

The headline says he grew up a Hawkeye fan

My favorite lines are actually:

"He had every reason to become a Hawkeye."
and
"He thinks a lot more of the instate talent will become Cyclones as well, and why wouldn't you?"

Yes indeed, Why Wouldn't you.

Oh I believe there were/are problems. That is one I don’t believe. Why would coaches take his meal card away, yet they wanted him to make weight?

Come on man, they didn't want him to play at that point. Once you rock the Ferentz boat, you are done.

Lazard wasn't a big Hawkeye fan that committed to Iowa State over Iowa. Like I said it hadn't been done before

ISU getting Jr Cyclone Members like Lazard (assuming here) and Imming aren't earth shattering recruiting wins.

 

[Legend Hawk]

I have no idea if he graduated or not. Not sure why that would matter. He played football at Iowa

He was a walk on that didn't play a down for Iowa.

That is great that you are a Docherman fan and reading up on Bruce.

Swing and a miss

Yeah I know his brother played football at Iowa and he grew up a big Hawkeye fan

I guess this also proves that I was right about Noel. Remember when I told you Iowa was only recruiting Bruce, Brecht, Johnson, and Bell? You told me you had a source that said Iowa wanted Noel in the worst way. LOL man you just make up too much stuff, it always blows up in your face.

Noel was a take for Iowa

How many kids did the racism stuff cost Ferentz? Double digits?

Not many. If it cost us that much, you’d be looking at a top 10 class instead of one in the top 25.

Bell
Parks
Alt
Sanders
Williams
Carnie
Helm
Verdon
Oladokun

There's 9. I'm sure there is more

And 8-4 and 2nd place in B1G West

Death, taxes and ....

Carnie is a weak one. Everyone knew he was going to Nebraska if he got the offer. Helm was not likely going to be a hawk. Verdon and Sanders were both ISU guys early on. Bell went to Wisky because Iowa already had 3 guys committed before him.

Up until this year, your best team ever went 8-5 and lost their bowl game...

Yep up until this year, like the trend line. Have a coach that is taking better recruiting and putting better teams on the field.

I like our position - Top 50 Recruiting classes and Top 10 Finish

Beats Top 30 recruiting classes, for who knows how long, and squeaking into Top 25 and 2nd in a weak division.

Hell, I say give KF the #1 Recruiting class - 8-4, 2nd in B1G West. He is consistent.

Bell was silently committed to Iowa until the racist stuff. No Doyle cost them Helm and you're crazy if you don't think race played a factor in Verdon and Sanders

That's not even close to true
