Thank you. The constant mention of class ranking at this point drives me mad. It means so little.

I don't follow rankings much as I'm more in the 'see how they really do' camp, but Rutgers will likely see a bump at least for a few years with Schiano back.
He’s a great recruiter and was their only source of success in the past 30 years.
Is this his first year back? I just find it odd you flip the narrative that fast after all that's happened there.
Ok. I hate and never go over there, but I couldn’t help myself this morning. Some highlights:
current “headline” under football highlighting a class from 15 years
couple fun comments from the Deyo thread:
“Clowns must have a bagman. That's the only reason somebody would go to that sh*thole.”
“People say it’s no big deal to be last in the Big 10 in recruiting in July. Well it is a big deal because recruits don’t want to jump on a sinking ship and now ISU is on the rise. I don’t know how, but now we are losing re recruits to those sh*t bags so we must be in trouble.”
“
“I will flat say it. Leave aside ISU who is kicking ass on the field and with a young coach. We have an older coach with a son nobody likes. This is the result. And it won’t get bettter. Period.”

Bottom of the Big 10 and getting smoked by our douche bag little brothers to the West. Puke.”

“
It’s not just 3 recruits. It’s Arlen Harris, Micah Riley, Stokes, Imming, McLaughlin, Helm, Kendrell Williams, Skylar Bell, Ricky Parks, Jalon Peoples, Isaac Thompson, and now Hunter Deyo.”
2nd year back. Last year they had a bunch of close losses and even almost beat Michigan. Probably should’ve but I think they missed a field goal in crunch time.
Not saying that means they should be pulling a bunch of great recruits, but Greg knows how to recruit that area. Half of their 2022 recruits are from NJ and the rest are from eastern states (yes I called Ohio east).
The guy who says "I will flat say it..." gets it. Expect a slow drowning at Iowa given the older (near oldest) coach with a son nobody likes. Throw in the horrible treatment of some players and you get a death spiral. I, for one, keep rooting for Barta to keep throwing out those extensions...the only winner...the Ferentz family empire...$6+ million a year and rising!
They must’ve passed on everybody, I meant everybody’s passing on their program! Can’t blame them!

For starters getting a comitt from the #2 or 3 punter in the country dropped our average about a half a point because even though he's elite. Recruiting services still grade the position as a drag on your average. (Under .8000)
This really has cut down on the troll posts. Who was the one that got off on reminding us we were on page 2 of the rankings? (Above 50)
I felt kind of bad for HawkinCentralIa while I was reading that thread, until I got to the last two pages where he led the charge in the “doesn’t have the grades” bs.
So getting away from taking about the in-state program on the decline, what does this mean for ISU? Are we going to get back to a 4 man front with the DT talent that we have coming in? Or are we going to see a constant substitution pattern to match situations?
Nobody here knows that answer. We will get ehe best players on the field to succeed against the offense that day.
