NIU and ISU are predicted to be bowl teams so there is just 1 “cupcake” team.

A nearly 2K yard classic WI RB back w his entire O-line and a 3rd year starting QB vs a LB trio that has hardly played a meaningful snap on D...yikes. That’s the mismatch that is really concerning.

Everyone is negative about this recruitment bc Iowa seemingly NEVER wins battles like this that go this late even for hometown kids (J Weiskamp was decided early). Other than blue bloods no one usually wins battles like this. That having been said, Iowa is in this w just as good a shot if not...

If a unbiased person put odds on this, it should give Iowa the best odds of any 1 program. Iowa is the only school on his list that would offer guaranteed immediate playing time and is the hometown school. Iowa holds something unique. MI may be his “best” offer but that could change in an...

You probably won’t get over recruited at Iowa. That could easily happen w the big boys (ask A Holiday at UCLA...1st rounder loses pg spot 1 & done lottery pick).

I agree completely that Goodson has the high ceiling. I also worry that Iowa may have a harder time holding on to Goodson’s comittment should he blow up in the fall or some of the local SEC teams strike out on bigger fish. Brock is closer to home and would be more likely to stick w the Hawks...

I would expect pass pro to be improved from maturation of the OTs and run blocking to take a hit from graduation/Draft. With Wadley also gone, Stanley will have more on his shoulders.

Todd Berkenpas, Troy Skinner and Glenn Worley say “Hi”.

As soon as IA or ISU offer, unless he commits immediately, I’d bet the flood gates open for Locure.

He’s the missing piece. I think he sees that. Iowa has high level talent coming to pair w Garza but yet the kind that will stick around for 4 years. That’s how you win at programs like IA, WI and ISU for that matter. IN’s high level talent wont stay. Hard to blame the kid if he chooses MI (2 NT...

With that lineup, he should be able to score at the rim and get some easy looks from outside. The perimeter D will need to account for JBo and Mossand he will be the 3rd shooter. I expect him to be freshman all B1G

It’s far more likely that he would get recruited over at IN, MI or OSU than not getting PT at Iowa bc of CMac. He would probably start day 1 at Iowa but if not would play 20+ mpg and start as a So.

Bottom line here is that Iowa should have already offered Locure bc they need athletic guards. If they can also land Carton or Terry, great, maybe Locure would de-commit or maybe he wouldn’t. Landing Carton seems like a long shot right now and Terry was just offered by the gophers. I really...

Greenway was a WIL. Hunter was a LEO. All KF LB squad: Mike Jewell, WIL Greeway, LEO Edd or Kirksey (a good arguement could be made for Nieman)

He will be on the All B1G freshman team averaging double digits and 5+ rebounds. This kid is athletic. He dunks with ease from 2 feet right under the hoop. He will be a good defender at the 3 by conference and a very good defender by his soph season. He’s going to block some shots. He looks like...

What a perfect landing spot for him. He could be a good MVC player. There is already buzz in DSM for Drake hoops w a new coach coming in. Having an ex-Hawk will only add to that.

He needs to do more than develop a jump shot. He needs to be able to defend someone. Right now he can’t even defend collegiate players. A White was an elite collegiate defender.

FM needs to do exactly what Beilein did bf this season. Hire a defensive coach and put him completely in charge of the defense. Beilein is also an O first coach but he a had top notch defensive team this season w that approach. Which assistant should be replaced for that defensive coach...the...

Fran needs to follow Beiein’s lead at UM and hire an assistant to coach the defense. Maybe Speraw can take the Drake job and FM can replace him w an assistant from Loyola, K State or WV. It would be a stepping stone job bc if he could make Iowa’s defense even average, it’d land him a HC gig.

The further you are away from the ball the less experience matters. Add that basketball players are generally more athletic than FB players and I see no reason Wagner can’t be an immediate impact player in 2017. I’m sorry but playing WR doesn’t take mental gymnastics. Run route, catch ball, run...
