Defensive End Anthony Nelson Emerging as Iowa's Quiet Star

Not a given that he returns for '19, but the potential DL of A. Nelson, AJE, Gholston, Lattimore, Nixon/Reiff/Jacobus/Jansen/Shannon/Waggoner seems pretty special. This year should be pretty awesome, too, but I feel they are lacking a little lead in their pants on the inside.
 
Should be in full monster mode this year. I would just like to be 6' 7" and 270 lbs for a day, just to see how it feels. Any Saturday in September would be nice.

I’ve got an 8 month plan that we can get you up to that 270 mark no sweat. I’ll email it to you, and as your trainer include weekly texts/emails to check your progress and keep you on track.

$39.99 per month or one time payment of $300.00.

Nelson up to 271 with some quicks...he has a great swim move on the outside. I'm really interested to see where AJ is now weight-wise. He was 270 or so last year. You would think, he's up to 280 by now. I like the way Hesse plays...but those are NFL bodies and size at DE. Throw in Gholston and, well, we should be putting some pressure on people. Lattimore is probably 300lb now, and Matt Nelson over 290...that's big enough for DT. The issue is depth behind them...and in particular if someone gets hurt.

If this DL becomes a wrecking crew, like I think they will be, it's makes it alot easier to play LB...you are running free to the play most of the time. Phil just needs to have them in the position. Exciting stuff.

Lattimore seems to be the forgotten man of this group. I really think he'll step up and it be his time to dominate. He's got the size now and quickness inside. If he can play similarly to Christian Ballard and how well he could play inside and out talk about a game changer...

I was a little worried about the size in the middle this spring, but really, you are only talking 10-20 pounds at max. So I'm good with that. It's one thing to try and add 15 pounds of lean weight. A normal person can do that in 6-7 months. But when you start talking 50 pounds, that takes awhile.
