Same with Iowa

So, Darien Porter is going to be an absolute stud, but Oliver Martin can not be even though he is regarded as being a better prospect? You see this is where Iowa fans do not get the logic behind the homer ISU thinking by some posters.
Last class we got Darien Porter who was in Iowa's backyard. I think he is going to be an absolute stud, did Iowa offer?
Is he still regarded that way?
This thread needs burned to the ground.

I would think so, he is a transfer from a blue blood school. Tell me though are transfers regarded as being better prospects that HS players? You guys would know
No, you're clogging it up with dumb posts.Most do in this place. It gets clouded with one sided logic and name calling for others that do not like different thinking.
Nobody is saying he can't be. All we've ever said is that we like the talent and depth in our WR corps, and we don't (aka Campbell doesn't) see Martin as talented enough to justify pushing another WR out to accept him. That's why we didn't even contact him.
Spin it all you want to make yourself feel better or to troll an ISU board (how exciting your life must be!), but your receiving corps is nowhere near where ours is.
Lmao, gee I wonder why Campbell didnt offer him in 2017???? Go look at his original offer list, you think Iowa State is competing with that coming off multiple 3 win seasons?
Do not say that around here, the past 2 years is the only history that counts.
Just for some modern talk on here regarding NFL caliber players and receiving yards (Iowa's offense is NFL style in regards to TE utilization)
4 TE were in the top 25 for receiving yards in the NFL in 2018, No RBs made the top 25.
So saying that our number 4/5 options will return and are comparable to your number 4 WR that is a potential NFL player, according to cyclonenation, is not dumb, or stupid, it is just the facts. Now you do have your other top 2 and 3 returning, but they were not up to Butler's level in terms of production at that spot.
So, Oliver Martin will be someone that can push for making that unit better, I get it ISU did not want him, because they had not shot at him in terms of him being from Iowa City anyway.
IMO, ISU returns more production at the WR spot, but I am not seeing that huge talent gap that there was even 2-3 years ago at WR. I think Iowa is still behind ISU, but ISU lost their 2 all time best WRs the last 2 years to graduation.
Heck, I think Iowa's TE will struggle a little this year due to the guys we lost, I am not in fantasy land thinking since we are a TE factory that we will still be an upper echelon unit there a year after we lost that talent.
No, you're clogging it up with dumb posts.
Well some posters disagree with you regarding Martin, saying that he has flamed out because he is transfering.
Maybe Martin didnt want to go to ISU and did not contact them? Takes 2 to tango. My guess is there was no interest there from either party.
Besides Butler, i can not remember a game where another absolutely took over and continued that trend for the year.
ISU has good wrs, but that is based on their potential to improve.
Most do in this place. It gets clouded with one sided logic and name calling for others that do not like different thinking.
I know very few Iowa fans that would agree with you... and do you seriously think that Iowa won't have a fall off at the TE position this year? I know you aren't super bright but at least try to be objective.
What substance do you add besides condescending posts toward Iowa and attacking Iowa posters? You must still be eating that grape jelly for breakfast
It was also pointed out that he would have seen significant time as the number 3Nobody is saying that numb nuts. It was pointed out NUMEROUS times that martin is buried in the depth chart by better players...
