I apologize for my part in derailing this thread. Please discuss Chubba Purdy here.
Chubba Purdy
- Thread starter spierceisu
- Start date
If you're winning by 20 in the 4th quarter you do. Hopefully ISU has some games like that and we can get Mitchell, and anyone else we want, some experience.
Are there any Iowa fans in this thread that could give us some insight on little brother thought processes?
I’d go with “Because the post I replied to simply said ‘Purdy is no Mayfield’”. So I was curious what Mayfield looked like at the exact same stage of development.
Thanks for you response, I appreciate it.
And the “Chubba Purdy” portion of this thread was concluded the moment Aidan Bouman was mentioned.
Yes, Lawrence got hurt and missed basically an entire game (Syracuse I believe) and they had another true freshman step in and play.
Come on Fanatics you’ve watched CMC for a few years now and should know how this works. We like to be “multiple” including different packages. Next year they’ll have a package of plays featuring Real Mitchell, especially since he brings a slightly different skill set than Brock. We might not even use the package some games but defenses will still have to prepare for multiple looks. If we sign a talented QB this year we’ll do the same thing down the road. This staff, especially with Manning back, will find a way to get talent on the field.
Chubba not coming here would be more about Dean and Bouman than Brock. The QB room looks good for the next few years.
Just to pour some gasoline on this dumpster fire of a thread...
... Chubs is now a 4-star per 247.

Not that ratings are a guarantee, but Chubba is rated higher than Dean and Bouman by 247. He might not be scared of that as competition.
Edit: cyclone4L just beat me with the 4-star rating
I am wondering if he would be interested in coming since his brother is already here. I know his family loves ISU, but maybe Chubba wants to do his own thing. On the other hand, he may like ISU and want to play with his brother. If he doesn't want to go to ISU, maybe this is why the staff hasn't offered him yet.
I’ve wondered about that myself—since I liked Chubba long before 247 made him a 4 star. But I also suspect this is going to be a pretty small class.
So, as for Chubba, the actual reason for this thread, the reason we haven't offered him yet could be because CMC and staff have some inside information that he either is or isn't interested in coming here.
I could see him wanting to go his own way, make his own name. Which CMC could already know and respect. Just a theory.
They could also be in no hurry because they are so familiar with the family and know their situation and plans, so will offer him when they see fit.

This. Take a look at how many scholarship SRs are on the roster. This class is going to small...like 18-20. You just don't bring in two QBs in a small class when you only lose 1 in Kolar. Not to mention it sounds like they really like Bouman. I guarantee that the staff has watched every single one of Chubba's plays. If they liked him better than Bouman, he would be committed to ISU by now and Bouman would be going somewhere else. Sucks that they have an in with a very highly rated QB, but we just have to trust the eval here.
Holy Moly a season with out a QB controversy, CW can't handle the turn down in viewing of CF if that happens.
Jk it'll all work out.
