Iowa Football Recruiting

Do most fading programs have a 72% winning % since 2015? I mean ISU's best year ever is 75%, just a hair above Iowa's winning % over the last 6 years.

So Iowa's measuring stick is now ISU. Everytime I bring up Iowa's performance and trend line, I get "But ISU". I mean I know that is who hoks are comparing against but I didn't expect it to be so obvious.

Do you understand what a trend line is? Iowa has been flat and I predict it will decline. I certainly see nothing to see it improve. Recruiting class ranking for Iowa hasn't made a difference. Schedule is the biggest influence on Iowa's record.

ISU on the hand has a pretty sharply increasing trendline, despite what I think Hok fan would call mediocre recruiting classes.

I don't know how much more clearly to explain it, but then again, I really didn't expect you to understand it or even try to.
 
Lazard hated Iowa. Imming grew up a big Hawkeye fan. What are you talking about?

Both are big ISU fans, and Jr. Cyclone club members.

I mean this Imming commitment for you is this like the biggest get ever for the Cyclones? I mean you are acting like ISU has never beaten Iowa for a recruit before. Very odd to say the least.

I don't think ISU stole him from Iowa, ISU deflected Iowa's hard run at him. Like Sanders, Like McGluaghlin. Please don't tell me the ultimate argument for Iowa's declining performance against ISU in recruiting battles is Jr. Cyclone Club.

I don't know a time that Iowa State has beaten out Iowa for a recruit that grew up a big Hawkeye fan. You obviously don't either

You are a complete and total idiot that knows nothing about Iowa. Iowa's measuring stick is fellow P5 football programs. Since 2013 Iowa has a top 11 winning % among P5 schools. Wanna try cherry picking a year to start from to prove your stupid ass "downward trend"? Well go ahead. Since Iowa's disaster of a 2012 season here is where Iowa stands winning % compared to other P5 schools:

Since 2013: 68% which is 11th among P5 schools
Since 2014: 69% 9th among P5 schools
Since 2015: 72% 9th among P5 schools
Since 2016: 68% 11th among P5 schools
Since 2017: 70% 11th among P5 schools
Since 2018: 74% 10th among P5 schools
Since 2019: 76% 9th among P5 schools

So tell me where you see a "downward trend"? Over the last 8 years Iowa has been excellent compared to other P5 programs. There is no downward trend and you are an idiot for believing what you wish to be true instead of actually looking at data.

I don't care that ISU beat Iowa for a recruit, they have done it before, they will do it again. It is recruiting.

While we’re at it Tyler Moore as well.
They were never interested in Moore. Not really. They wanted him for a short time but it was far too late at that point. If they had offered early on I think Moore would have potentially gone to Iowa. But then again, maybe not cause they already had taken Llewellyn

And, considering that Iowa played Ohio State 1 time since 2013, imagine what the winning percentage would be if they had to play Ohio State every year. Even assuming that Iowa wins 1 out of every 6 (basically the average since 1983), the win percentage drops to the low 60's...not so shiny now.

Llewelllyn isn’t a TE.

So you are saying "He didn't want you anyway".
Oh how the turn tables.

Don't tell him how soft Iowa's schedule is and how trash the big10 west is. He will try and compare a division vs an entire conference. He is keeps getting owned with it

You are dumber than I thought, you clearly can't read. He literally said Iowa has been FLAT and he PREDICTS a decline. Tough day for you. Just log off.
 
Your just jealous that the Iowa by Athletic Dept. was too stupid to come up with something like that.

Still trying to figure out “The Swarm” angle. Is that what bees do? But you are the Hawks?

Hawking a loogie is sounds a lot better.

I mean Barta requires a baby to have a ticket.... You have to give JP credit, he has crushed it at Iowa State pushing the family atmosphere. In the long run that's much more viable than screwing your season ticket holders every season.
