I love how violent he is in his videos. Excited about his future here.

Yep Violent is a good word and when he gets those bear paws on you, he don't seem to let go.... like that!!!!

Dumb question:

Why was Ray Lima able to sign his NLI a month ago or so? Are JUCO able to sign early?

He graduated in December so he is enrolled at ISU.

JUCO's don't sign NLI, it's a less binding financial aid agreement, where they can still go back on it until they are enrolled in classes I believe.

So we have one ILB, and one OLB signing today. That seems light right? Then looking at the 247 roster for ILB was a little concerning. 3 seniors, and 1 recruit...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Tongamoa signed (or at least tweeted his commitment) already

I'm not sure if he's sent in the papers, but yes, he did tweet it out.

Rob Hudson (OL 6'7 333)

His fax is through. I'll assume their height/weight listed is how they measured on their visits, so likely accurate.

Is he really in HS? He looks like he would kill our other HS Oline recruits.

Remember when we were searching for a DE that was larger than 240? Right now we have a 270, 265, 250, 235, 230 and 210 coming in on day one. Already have 260, 257, 255, 250, 250, 245, 240, 239, 235, and 227. That's a 245 pound avg.

Was Randy Peterson wrong? (wouldn't be the first time)

8:10 a.m. update: Iowa State got its man.

Kamilo Tongamoa is a Cyclone.

The jewel of Matt Campbell’s recruiting class, the junior college all-American returned his national letter of intent Wednesday, finalizing his verbal commitment despite other FBS programs trying to get him to flip

Vividly. We usually wound up bulking up a linebacker and converting our larger DEs to undersized DTs.

The change is nice.

I'm not sure to look into this or if I'm missing anything, but I got a snapchat from Cyclone Athletics of the board and it had 25 spots. According to 247 there are 24 guys...

HHHHMMMMMMMMMMM??!?!?!!?


(I'm probably just missing something)

Could mean we lose someone, 247 doesn't have the two grad transfer OL. Looking at unsigned, it seems Datrone Young to be most likely?

 

[Dandy]

According to 247, every single recruit is a 3-star. Has that ever happened?

We had so many committed, we had to tell one no.

Good point, I didn't even think of those 3 guys (PK from OSU). They were all on that board.

While I normally don't make it a big deal about recruiting Iowa. I am excited to see so many Iowans in this class.
