I'm with you....sour grapes can't blame him. Chizik was directly connected to the university...and its possible he now has a bad taste in his mouth about ISU.
Bofelli
- Thread starter CyPride
- Start date

I don't know but during the 4A football title game he missed a lot of blocks and was really slow.
You have to expect some kind of defections when a coach leaves. If it's true I wish the kid the best of luck!!
Maybe at first glance, but more than likely not. Not all players have equal ratings. Not all needs are the same. Sometimes the alternative plan B is just as good. Thus not all scholarship offers are extended and worded the same. Some are take it now or never. Some are first come - first serve. Some are take it by a certain date. Some are open all the way to signing day. All schools extend and retract offers to some degree.
I agree...it's not even speculation on the boards on those sites that I can see.
Not saying it isn't true, but I'll wait for confirmation.
Can you blame him at this point? He won't make a good D1 TE, so maybe he's thinking of going to Iowa where they have a good history of making oversized tightends into successfully linemen. Probably the best choice for him.
The comment about Wood is very true. He was probably the best OL on that unit and will be an absolute steal for whoever gets him.
Boffeli had some injury issues this year and maybe there is some concern his body won't hold up? He is an extremely talented baseball player and may have a brighter future on the diamond.

God, how I love these 100% rumor based threads that people take as "fact", and bounce all overt the place.
It started with the "ISU staff"...what, the "staff" of two or three? And please, after a week on the job, someone please tell me how they have such good inside information on what Rhoades is thinking already. Especially over Christmas, I doubt he's spending a lot of time cloistered with boosters sharing inside info. Probably spending his time developing inside info--and a "staff".
Not true. What he said was that he didn't want to wear his gear outside the house because he'd feel like he was bragging. I like a kid that's modest, even if that seems to be a little extreme.

It would be nice if we could keep this kid, we are kind of light on OG/C types for underclassmen. That said, I kinda figured we'd lose him since he was a Hawk fan growing up anyway, and Ferentz loves to recruit committed players from ISU, even though he whines like a little baby when someone does the same to him.
Had to expect to lose a few of our recruits. Life goes on, we'll find somebody better. At least he is not a DE, man we Rhoads needs to find a couple of them in the last month.

Who was the last ISU commit than signed with Iowa in February in the last 10 years?
actually, my last comment wasn't as harsh as it was put to me... One scout told me that Bofelli would be stupid to play football in college. If he loves baseball, he has a shot at a good career, but the second he steps foot on campus to play football his baseball career will be over because they will bulk him up too much...
You missed it. There was an article in the Des Moines Register, and it even got some national play. Basically he was whining about other schools recruiting committed players and taking them near the end of the recruiting season when the team had stopped recruiting other players of that position. I understand his point but he is being awfully hypocritical when they do the same thing.
What was the name of the kid who played football and baseball for ISU back in the day? Bush maybe?
