Awesome. KF can surely flip another MAC recruit here in the next week.

This is another blow for our National Championship chances next season.

I keep forgetting he was in the program. Those jet sweeps he ran seem like they happened 10 years ago.

I was of the opinion that our WR crew was bad so I certainly won't oppose some turnover creating the opportunity to bring better talent in.

Man...Watching his kick return against Tennessee never gets old. It was hilarious then and still funny now

The reality is he will be needing quite a few of those MAC recruits. Hopefully they can find a WR coach who is good at developing talent, because Iowa certainly isn't attracting a lot of talent at receiver.

Same post over and over and over. Why even come to this site? 1hawkeye1 should add you to the 56 thread for repetitive drivel.

How was Caddy incorrect?

Just making sure there is room for Oliver Martin!

We just announced the signing of a WR from Illinois who had offers from Army, Bowling Green & Central Michigan.

Good luck to Parker but it was not happening here.

Some people can't put 2 and 2 together.

Told you he could do it. KF is a genius. Army, thats hilarious. They don't even throw the ball.

I'd love to see it happen but its not gonna happen. He's gonna break a lot of Hawkeye hearts. It's going to cause an epic meltdown.

They threw downfield more often than Iowa did last year.

Way too sarcastic. I dont blame Parker one bit. I think he never got much of a chance.

He was quick, fast and if he had hands he should have been in the slot running quick slants etc from his freshman year on, maybe not as a starter, but how hard is it to run a quick slant with those athletic skills.

I would say GDavis wasted parker at Iowa without even giving him a chance.

I wish but I seriously doubt it

After watching the kickoff return vs Tennessee, I would say that he doesn't have much of a football iq, hence being buried on the depth charts.

Good move for him. Got a degree from Iowa and hopefully he'll get a chance somewhere else. He doesn't fit the traditional mold of a WR or a RB and that is not good a program like Iowa. He has no shortage of talent, it the right system he can be a weapon.
