The KXNO morning show has been all talk this week about whether Rhoads will leave for Pitt and the progress he's made at ISU in recruiting the state of Iowa. I've held back my vomit from painting the great roads of Marshalltown and today I've decided its time to release my frustration with some facts.
Here is the 2012 state of Iowa recruiting class according to ESPN:
Darboh3* Michigan Bound
James Harrington3* Cedar Falls Best offers from Ohio, Nevada, and Army (no ISU or Iowa offer showing)
Michael Malloy 2* Iowa commit
Collin Bevins 2*:ISU commit, only other offer from Iowa
Cole Netten 2* ISU commit no other offers shown
Nathan Criswll 2*: No offers shown ,Kicker
Barkely Hill 2* ISU committ Only other offer is Iowa
Charles Rodgers 2* ISU Commit: Offers from Minny and NIU
2011
Christian French 4* goes to Oregon
Iowa Gets two 3* guys in Austin Blythe and Henry Kreiger-Coble
ISU lands Jamison Lalk 3* and Darian Cotton 2* both with no other offers from FBS schools
2010
AJ Derby 4*: Enough said
James Kohler 3*: Ames OT who forgoes football altogether
Andre Dawson 3*: Cedar Falls RB, UNI Commit, Offers from Cincy, Illinois, Iowa, KU, Minny, NIU, Purdue, and Wisky
Brandon Scherff 3*: Already starts at Iowa
Matt Hoch 3*: Mizzo Commit
Brandon Jensen 3*: ISU Commit, only other offer from UNI
James Morris 2*: Enough said
Austin Vier 2*:Enough Said
Next ISU guy is Van Der Kamp
Seems to me like Iowa is still getting the recruits it should be getting in state with the exception of French and Darboh, who were wowed by the big stages at Oregon and Michigan. It's very evident 2012 is a down year for in state football recruits. This staff has been notorious for bringing in the hidden gems from within the state of Iowa and I trust them to pick those guys out when they come along.
