Iowa Football Recruiting

[TheJackWePack5]

I believe Campbell is a great coach, but you do realize Iowa has a better history of sending players to the pros? So what makes you believe a player would choose Campbell over Ferentz. Ferentz has a longer resume and more respect nationally. Campbell really has not proved anything to this point. He has work to do in order to be on Ferentz's level. Iowa State has work to do in order to be on Iowa's level as a football program. I like that Iowa State is trending in the right direction (it makes the game between Iowa and Iowa State relevant), but one season of going 8-5 is not anything to brag about.

Hey **** that’s two seasons of 8-5.

Here we go...

Congrats on being the same guy

Total screw the pooch job by Kirk and the boys.

Hate seeing any young player have his dreams crushed. Glad to see Eno is doing well.

Ferentz has more respect nationally? I think every national publication ranked CMC as a better coach than him going into this year. I could think of a thousand reasons why a player would choose a great coach like Campbell over Ferentz

I want to hear all 1,000 different reasons.

Nope you said 1,000.

 

[CyTwins]

Nope you said 1,000.

I'm pretty busy in life right now

Haha...

@Hawkmi I know you had mentioned Iowa is owed a waiver for the whole Ott thing but can you remind me why? For some reason I remember it as being pretty cut and dry but I could be wrong. FWIW I'm not trolling and I'd be thrilled if Bolton and Martin got waivers

So you’re saying you agree with everything thinker is posting, right?

What’s thinker posting?

No way that you haven't seen that rambling mess, LOL.

You understated it.

 

[JP4CY]

You understated it.

Does anyone understand that?

 

[CyTwins]

Hearing Iowa is going to land an OL/DL soon who's best offer is Kansas

 

[Cat Stevens]

You understated it.

This would be where you all as the “good” hawk fans go and correct him.

Whoa...out recruiting a national champion coach for a recruit. Awesome!

I gotta hand it to you. You come up with some pretty awesome spin sometimes. That said I don't dismiss the notion that a kid has potential if Iowa recruits him on either side of the line.

Curious wouldn’t his best offer be Iowa? Unless you think Kansas is a better program than Iowa. Curious.
