New TE offer T.J. Hockenson 2.0?

[#1DieHardHawk]

Gunnar Helm, from the same H.S. as Alex Padilla.

Looks like a Hock clone running drills. Smooth player that likes to block.

I believe it was Tyler Devine that tweeted out a little earlier today that Iowa is in his top-5 after the offer. Would be a very nice get!

I believe his grandfather played TE at Iowa in the 50’s.

Didn't know that. Interesting.

Maybe that, along with our TE reputation, will be enough to seal the deal. He's got some blue-blood offers and probably warrants a higher rating with his skill set. Bringing him in would give us quite the talented TE room, even if Fidone goes elsewhere as expected.

I also read that his parents are from Cedar Rapids and that’s where he was born. Hopefully the Iowa connections help.

Not Iowa. Not Iowa for Myslinski either.

Looks like Texas for Helm. What are you hearing about Myslinski?

 

[spliff45]

Texas and probably Michigan State are his final two. Texas is the favorite. This is one where the necessary departure of Doyle plays a part.

@RobHowe Myslinski decommitted from Texas; Michael State now in driver’s seat or will Iowa give him a ring?

Myslinski was a casualty of the Doyle situation, so highly doubtful he's interested. IIRC, his dad is a S&C coach who was/is a fan of Doyle.

Always another fish in the sea.
