Good get for Kirk but these verbals make me nervous anymore. He was recruited by a lot of big time schools and had interest from other blue bloods like Bama. So, what happens if Saban gets on the phone and tells him he wants him in Tuscaloosa?

Always scary, but it sounds like he was a Hawkeye fan well before the recruiting process started. Doesn't mean he won't decide to go somewhere else, but it is helpful.

Well Iowa has the home state advantage and he said that played a factor. Not to mention the last season Iowa had didn't scare him off. Without knowing the kid or family it's pretty tough to predict what he'll end up doing come signing day. So for now lets count our chickens before they are hatched and try and build a recruiting class around him.

But the real question is what is his 40 time and can he catch the ball??????

You got it wrong. We turn Tight Ends into Linemen, not the other way around.

He tells Nicky to go eff himself.

I suppose that rules out wide receiver then. Can he throw the ball?

Speaking of 2014 lineman. Orlando Brown Jr. tweeted this out yesterday.

Orlando Brown (Zeus) ‏@ZEUS__78
Good talk with Coach Ferentz #hawkeyenation

If Iowa was able to get Brown and Ross stays committed, that would be some solid OL recruiting.

Perhaps just semantics here but had to question your use of the word "other" -- are you suggesting Iowa right now is a "blue-blood" program on par with 'Bama?

Does this recruit make Ferentz any less conservative?

not likely. But a bigtime Oline and Dline makes it so he can stay more conservative....but still win some games.

No, most definitely not.

He'll have a big enough jersey, yes.
