Hmm. Hakeem Butler was a 2 star guy.

So was Bob Sanders, Robert Gallery, Josey Jewell, Chad Greenway, Josh Jackson, Jonathan Babineaux, Micah Hyde, Mike Daniels, Karl Klug, Scott Chandler, Akrum Wadley, just to name a few.

They even had stars for Sanders and Gallery back then?

I understand from the coaches perspective that you want someone to be 100% bought into the program, but at the same time, don't you want to make sure that the player is 100% comfortable with his decision while at the same time not running off talent? If you really like a kid, why wouldn't you let him go through the process of recruiting and come in with no regrets of the decision he made?

It's 100% hypocritical to tell a kid to be 100% committed when those same coaches are trying to poach kids that are committed to other schools. Gotta love the insecurity though...

Let's not pretend that recruiting rankings were worth a **** when half of these guys played at Iowa.

I’m not yeah buddy or whoever you think I am.. I was just made aware of some of the delusional fans over here. Especially cytwins and I can already tell the thought process is anti Iowa everything and none of you will actually sit down and debate sports.. and I get half of you are just trolling the Iowa fans.

There needs to be a bull **** rating

Nice to see you guys picking it up a notch. Things were getting sideways fast. Kid looks solid, would've added nice depth to the young studs currently on the roster and the Army All-American DE in our 2020 class.

Getting sideways fast? I’d rather wait and get quality players committed than have 2 stars and other kids commit just to fill up the bottom spots of the class. But whatever helps you sleep at night, I guess
