You just can't quit me, can you.
Back with more moronic bullshit. I'll be honest, I thought you retreated to your trailer for good and almost got a little sad.

Just remember, he has two little brothers..........
"Little" being the operative word. Neither are anywhere near AJs height or build.
Could you imagine? AJE on one side Bosa on the other with Buckner in the middle. Dee Ford on passing downs. Good lord.
True this pic was from prior to his freshman year. Kids grow a lot in 4 yrs or so... I Haven't heard anything on the younger brothers recently enough to say if they are going to be D1 material at anything or not. Needless to say if they are or will be they'll be on Iowa's radar.

Met them while tailgating at NW game. The older one has some height, maybe 6'1" or so. The younger is a couple inches shorter. I would be shocked if either is more than 175 or 180.

The youngest one is 12, the middle one is a 2020 class kid, 170 lbs, no star ratings from either of the services. Has offers from Butler and NW Missouri State. I'm sure he's a great athlete and a super high-character kid, but he's probably not P5 material.
It is a great thing for the Iowa program but not nearly as great as if the 4 guys who left early last year had stayed for 2019 and Iowa won the B1G West and maybe more.
Also not nearly as great if AJ and Wirfs stuck around to give Iowa possible the best OL & DL in the conference next season with Stone manning the back end.
Until I see the recruits coming in currently from all this good publicity bring a division championship to Iowa City, losing these guys early to the pros is a net loss for the program and its not even close.

Man, we really could have used some "Hartlieb magic" out of that family.

I was the tallest kid in 4th grade. Dominated basketball and football. That Texas Redshirt I took really helped. I totally would have been a 2 sport star at Iowa if my knee would have held up.

Ask USC how much of a skill player ISM isn't.
And don't give me any babble about how this wasn't a vintage USC team. Before we played them people were touting them as a blue blood with an endless supply of four and five star skill position recruits. After we played, and dismantled them, da haterz were backpedaling and saying the QB got knocked out and blah, blah, blah.
We took on a legit top twenty five team and shoved it up their ass. Deal with it.
We played a legit schedule. Deal with that as well.
Our offense isn't free wheeling enough for you. I get that. That's OK, there's plenty of offense in the Big 12 for you to be a fan of.
Oh, wait....

I think Eppy had them padded up as soon as they could play.
I've seen some footage of the youngest playing ball on Eppy's FB page.
He looks like a man among boys. And I know that's cliche, but it's accurate.

That kid's only 12? He looks 16. No wonder I thought he was small!
