Iowa Football Recruiting

You only see what you want to see. If you truly believe the officials stole the game from isu you’re as delusional as CyTwins.
Hawk troll on CF, idiot on CF, and now you are doing color commentary pulling up screen shot of plays on holding calls to try and prove your point. Get a life and get some help dude!! The "obsession" is way too real for you.

I only posted the pics because Motorcy was demanding them.
I’m saving this for when he goes off this year. I think he will be a similar player to Anthony Nelson which would please me.
Absolutely correct, which was the entire point I was making when motorcy was demanding that I provide pics.
You throw a blurry picture on here and call that a hold? You've been drinking or what?
What a horrible obsession you have with cyclone fans!!
That's text book blocking. How about you point blank point out where the hold is at?
When the pads are lifted off the player shoulders holding is an appropriate call. When you grab someone’s arm pull it down and stop the players movement it is also appropriate to call holding.
Are you arguing that the only reason isu lost was due to the officials?

Iowa State lost because we failed to make a couple of key plays on defense that most likely would've iced the game and our special teams completely s*** the bed on that punt return.
The call in my eyes was bad, however it wasn't the determining factor nor should be the reason any Iowa State fan says we lost.
Exactly. It's frustrating to watch some of our fans claim that call cost us the game. Both teams got away with stuff that penalties could've been called on. It's football it happens. People also forget that Purdy threw a terrible pass like a play or two after that holding call on fourth down.
Yeah I mean that throw by Purdy didn't matter whether it was incomplete or an interception because either way we had another chance to get the ball back and possibly score. We all know why that never happened lol.
But yes. That call was not in the last seconds or anything like that. There was a lot of football to be played after that and we failed to execute. Now, if the call would've been like the Kansas State call in 2017, then there'd be some reason to be upset because that literally would've ended the game, but it wasn't. So let's put it to rest that the holding call, although most likely not the right call, was the sole reason we lost.
Special teams lost ISU that game without question. Not only the punt return disaster, but Iowa’s only TD was set up by both an 11 yard KR from the endzone followed by a 19 yard punt. Those mistakes are what handed the game to the Hawks. The refs were just terrible the whole time all around.
I see Iowa offered Harlan 2022 prospect Will McLaughlin today. Apparently he grew up an Iowa State fan and is interested in Ag in college, but said today’s offer from Iowa was his biggest offer yet. Will be interesting to see how his recruitment plays out.
Purdy fumbling on 2nd down at the Iowa 25 and giving away at least 3 and possibly 7 points was pretty big. As was his miss to your wide open TE in the back of the end zone in the 4th qtr, that should've been 7 points, would've put you guys up 21-15 instead of settling for a FG.
