Iowa Football Recruiting

I didn't think it was the schools generating those 'committed' graphics, I thought it was independent graphic designers.
Yeah, I doubt that came from anything official. Probably either him or someone he knows photoshop skills on display.
I think some schools do it but I know you're right in that independent graphic designers do stuff too
There was a kid from central Iowa who did them when he was still in high school a few years ago, did some for very big name recruits, Bama and Clemson commits. Talented guy.
Meanwhile, the low IQ fans on Hokeye Report are absolutely losing the minds over a guy (Charlie someone) who is now going to play for Purdue.
I do think that schools usually make "committed" graphics. The only reason I think that is because they're usually all the same template...at least for ISU commits. ISU I know sends out a graphic for when an official visit gets set up...probably most schools do that. Obviously, the school is just sending those to the recruit and not tweeting them to the general public. Similarly, when a kid visits, the school is the one taking most of the pics when kids try on uniforms. They send those to the recruit to tweet out.
The independent edits are usually when recruits come out with their top 5 or whatever.
Thinking of trying to get tickets from the ISU grouping for the Iowa game? Are our seats there like what we give them? One lower section (guessing band gets about a third of that) in side of the endzone and then one high section between the endzone and the 15ish area?
I don't believe opposing fanbases get put in the lower level in Kinnick outside of the family/friends section.

It could be worse. His parents could’ve named him Richard. Or maybe they thought that was just too obvious.
I think this is a very sneaky good get for Iowa. Kid has a ton of upside.David Caulker, Iowa State Cyclones, Edge

What does this have to do with recruiting?
The beer sales makes the crowd happier and more amped and thus a better environment for the recruits at the game.
I'm spitballing, I just didn't know where else to put it and thought Cyclone fans would find it informative as most are still on the fence about allowing alcohol sales is all.
My son who went to a couple Iowa games this year said the opposite. Said there were people so drunk they could not stand but still had a beer in each hand. People throwing up in the stadium. They say the gross sales, what was the net. A million or so?
