Top 10 Wants!
1. WR Chandler Smith - IMO, he is the best prospect that we have a chance for. He is 6'3", world class fast and is a skilled route runner. Extremely polished. Stud. Committed to Florida
2. DE Mario Eugenio - Sack machine, would challenge the sack record at ISU. Decommitted from Michigan; not coming to Iowa State
3. WR Greg Gaines - He would fight for starts day one on campus. Insane play maker
4. DT Domonique Orange - THICK boy with speed.
5. DT Hunter Deyo - He would be higher if I thought we had a better chance. He is REALLY good. Moves extremely well.
6. WR Quaron Adams - Zoooooooom.
7. DE R Mason Thomas/Ikenna Ezeogu - both can rush the passer and stop the run. I think they are equally talented. Get one and I'm happy. We got BOTH!
8. RB Kaleb Johnson - Not the fastest, but is patient and moves very efficiently. Who does that sound like. Committed to HOK
9. LB Will McLaughlin - He's low because we have two linebackers. Dude plays like he would kick Nana down the stairs if she got in his way.
10. S D'Angelo Hutchinson - Lengthy, hard hitting safety. Sign me up
I will be giving each player a Freshman rating and Potential Rating. The Freshman Rating is the rating that the player would have if they were put in the game today. The Potential Rating is what I think they could be rated once they are a senior. Note: Potential is not what I think they WILL be, it's what I think the ceiling of what they could be.
NCAA Football games would rate their freshman players according to the star ratings.
61 below = 2 star
62-69 = 3 star caliber
70-77 = 4 star caliber
78-81 = 5 star caliber
Potential
80+ = Role Player
85+ = Starter for P5
90+ = All-Conference
95+ = All-American
98+ = Heisman
Notes: the above ranges are what NCAA Football would use to rate their players. Obviously, teams like Akron may not have anyone above 80 and BAMA may have 50 players over 85. It's just a scale for reference of their ability.
I will not be rating all 3 stars between 62 and 69. Some may be above and some below. Again, it's just for reference.
