Eyes of Texas on Mike Mitchell - ESPN

Good article on a kid we are recruiting from Texas.

ETA: Nevermind, he's got a top 3, and we aren't in it.

I hear he's pretty much an Ohio State lock.

I hear he's pretty much an Ohio State lock.

He's 6'4 and ran a 4.39. That's insane.

Delano Hill is going to be rated higher and also get a few more schools talking in his ear. Hopefully he stays with Iowa.

from the article...

"Right now, they said I'm going to be playing free safety. There's going to be a senior there, I don't know a lot about the depth chart....

So for those who feel recruits look at such things prior to making their decisions....not always the case obviously.

Not that it matters, but 247 bumped him up to a 4 Star pretty fast there..

 

[Churlish79]

With Jon Wisnieski's commitment, it sounds like his coach mentioned they had 4 schollies to give still.

This boils it down to 3, it seems.

Definitely a RB.. what else though? 1x OL? 1x ???

 

[David79]

Im guessing that by signing day they sign more than 3 more guys. They will get a RB for sure, I would say 2. I read somewhere they were done with OL.

 

[Churlish79]

With one of the LBs slotted to move to DE.. I wouldn't be surprised if we rangle in another LB if we can find one of fair quality..

1x RB, 1x LB, 1x ???

 

[David79]

Yeah, you would think they would get one more LB but as of right now I don't think they have any offers out to LBs except that Mitchell kid from Texas who has a top 3 that doesn't include Iowa.

Great point.

Well.. should be fun to see how this shakes out.

 

[David79]

If i am not mistaken I think there are least two kids coming to visit at the end of the month. Mycial Allen, who tried to commit once, and Rachid Ibrahim. Sounds like they are really recruiting Braylon Edwards brother Berkeley hard for RB.

 

[ISUhawk]

I think we need either 2 RB and 1 DE/LB or 1 RB 1 LB 1 DE.

Berkeley Edwards would be an awesome pickup

I'd say 1 of each is about right. My hopes are Edwards at RB, Kimbrough at LB, and Augusta at DE, but I think most of those are dreams.

 

[Montanahawk]

I'd say of those scholarships left a TB, OT, and LB...at least. Hopefully, another DE, and possibly another TB(ummm, can't have too many...dodges lighting bolt).

Montana hawk... do you live in Montana?

A couple of updates to the list in the OP--
-Wisnieski's commitment has been noted.
-4-star OL Khaliel Rodgers, who Iowa may or may not have been recruiting, has committed to USC. Rodgers is a teammate of 2015 QB David Sills, who committed to USC in the spring of his 7th grade year.

 

[DaCoach]

They would be criminally negligent by only taking 1 RB.
