Otzelberger's First Recruiting/Transfer Class - FULL

[isutrevman]

I liked COTZ more than CTJO. Until I hear something better...

Otz

 

[GetAwesome]

Every time I see “COTZ” my mind is reading “CROTCH”.

TJ and Otz are both short enough on their own.

TJO I think that flows nice. Especially when you say it out load.

 

[Pat]

TOtz.

Why not just TJ or Otz. Did the C thing start with Rhoads? CPR? I don't recall CFH being used anywhere near as much as Fred or Dreamy

 

[Sigmapolis]

Great thread. I just have one request. Can we quit calling him COTZ? I cringe every time I read it; it just doesn’t have a good sound to it.

I can't help read that as "cots" and laugh.

Kind of like when I see Latinx and can't help but say "La-tinks" to myself.

I get that. I see it as Coach Otz... But it looks stupid to put C OTZ or C,OTZ. I think it's a respect thing as well. He was Otz as an assistant. He's now the CEO for the 3rd most popular organization in the state (UI FB, ISU FB 1 and 2)

 

[cyfan92]

I'll get him added. Thanks

COTZ is stupid.

Not him. But that stupid abbreviation is stupid.

Green, DRob and COTZ are all familiar with the Iowa JUCO scene. Dustin Houge was a 2013 recruit from Indian Hills. So it wouldn't surprise me if TJ was his lead recruiter before he left for Washington

Yeah, getting the top Juco in-state prospects would really help facilitate a quicker turn around. Aside from Hogue and McKay (sort of, by way of Marquette) we haven't seen ISU too active in Ottumwa recently.

How about, "Mister Otzelburger"

Reminds me of Counciltucky.

Hope we do. They have 3 very good players in Ottumwa this season.

Good Lord. I’m completely lost.

I would have given my left nut if Conditt averaged 9 and 5
