2026 Football Targets

Correct. He originally wasn’t going to take an OV to ISU

He was always going to take a visit. He’s taking umpteen visits elsewhere right now. Since Ames is in his back yard, he waited until those were scheduled to set a date with ISU.

Unless you’re saying he was comfortable enough with ISU not to need an OV…

Well, unlimited OV’s for kids solved that.

CB commit Tyrell Chatman with a nice rating bump.

And the reason why. (Plus, he’s now listed on his bio at 6’4”)

Edit: His 6.93 60m time equals David Coffey’s impressive number—and he’s only a junior.

As the OV’s wrap up, I’ll mention that I wouldn’t be surprised to see a commitment or two the next couple of days.

No inside info, but what better gift for your dad?

I expect that Afuye will commit unless they decide not to take him for some reason. After that a commit from Williams and/or Thomas would be very nice surprise. I doubt we hear anything on Premer for a while.

Looks like we got a commitment. Other offers from Wake Forest and Washington State

Like Sgt. Schultz, "I know noth-ink!"

But, young Mr. Wessel looks to possess good feet, good quickness, good power. I can see, inmo, why he's listed as a DL.

I like Mr. Afuye a heckuva lot, too. Quick, speedy, hand-fighting, aggressive.

It’ll be interesting to see what the staff does now.

They can pivot to a couple of guys with interest who took placeholder offers, look for a new name, wait to see who might free up, wait to see what might (or might not) change with Jett…or simply hold on until ‘27.

I’m guessing it’ll be some combination of the last three.

Easton Webb is a 2026 QB that has scheduled an official to ISU.

Maybe steal Bernhardt away from Appalachian State. He's a high 3 star and visited ISU at least once.

With loosing Thomalla, will that hurt our chances with the 2 TE’s ISU is trying to land?

Don’t think so. Unlike his teammate, Thomalla wasn’t the primary connection.

And it’s not like we’re fresh out of QB’s.

**If anything, losing Thomalla might help us with a ‘27 QB like Israel Abrams…though I’d be just as happy if Jett flipped back before Cyning Day.
