To me the 4 of the 5 DBs are set, the newly vacated Safety spot seems...dicey? I would like to see us get a transfer for that spot but still it would take time to get up to speed, so that might not be the answer either. Who knows maybe Verdon will be a natural and were set, but for now it looks like a hole.
Just a reminder, Verdon was the third freshman of a set of Myles Purchase and Beau Freyler. And if I recall correctly, would also have played if he hadn’t been dinged up.
Or, coverage in general could be really good for a change. We’ll find out.
Jeremiah Cooper is probably 165lb. He'll be one of the top 3 talents at safety next year, but he may be too small.
There's zero chance he beats out Hunter (assuming he's still here and should be]
As of now, for sure. I don’t think Purdy was listed as QB2 even when he took over the starting job.
If Dekkers leaves. Dekkers showed potential last year to be an all time ISU QB
They say if Deckers and Purdy got to campus at the same time, Deckers would have been the QB. I have a hard time seeing Deckers losing the starting job, unless he’s just that bad this year.
The kid showed some flashes against not good team and he did okay against Iowa when they backed off the pressure. Maybe he will be great, but there is certainly nothing from last year that indicates that.
There's not a lot of competition. It's not a given but the raw talent is better than anyone we've had in my 3 decades.
Glad to know like usual, you have nothing substantial to add. See you when we are down a score and that’s when you’re most active!
they'll try to get him snaps in 4 games but still redshirt him
Actually, showing enough respect for someone is spell their name correctly is a big deal.
Take your medicine and go back and edit and spell the kid’s name correctly. Dekkers. Don’t lash out at someone else because you messed up.
