All Iowa Football Team---Post Bowl Edition

[Gonzo]

Really looks to be only a few locks on this years team.

Purdy
Kolar
Jackson
Linderbaum

Bailey
Rose
Hankins
Johnson
Eisworth

Duncan

Might have missed a few.

ISM

 

[SouthernCy]

I have no idea. He has only signed a handful of 4* RBs over the years (Jermelle Lewis, Greg Garmon, Brandon Wegher, Marcus Coker I know of for sure), and none of them panned out for a myriad of reasons.

I am definitely not a fan of Iowa’s running scheme. I don’t think it works in 2020 unless you have NFL talent pretty much across the board at OL. That’s a pretty tough ask for a developmental program like Iowa.

So you mean something they literally consistently always have lol?

 

[SouthernCy]

Link?

Bump

ISM

ISM and Milton have two of the WR positions locked up.

And I'd say Goodson and Hall are the clear locks at RB.

ISM

I don’t think you could put him as a lock. His WR stats are very dependent on QB play and we haven’t seen Iowa’s QB. As far as being a KR he is a lock.

He's the fastest and most dynamic offensive playmaker in the state.

 

[SouthernCy]

Not familiar with the names besides Enyi and Bailey.

Are they young and full of potential or more tenured guys that have been waiting for their chance?

Bankston is a transfer, Lee and Singleton are young guys. Lee had a fair bit of playing time last year and the staff is high on. Bailey is a tenured guy. I wouldn’t expect a ton from him, personally

Lol. No

 

[Gonzo]

Lol. No

Hahaha. Ok who?

We'll now I need to change my shirt after spitting out my coffee.

Pretty much a mix of both.

ISM

At KR, no doubt.

No doubt. If ISM isn't a lock at WR, there are no locks at WR.

 

[Statefan10]

At KR, no doubt.

Milton and ISM both had 722 receiving yards last year. Milton's ypc was 20.6 while ISM's was 16.4. Milton was the 3rd most targeted pass catcher, with 35 receptions. ISM was the #1 targeted pass catcher with 44 receptions. Better overall play maker goes to ISM. The better WR is probably Milton, however I'd love to see ISM in an offense like Iowa State's.

ISM had 9 more catches and two more receiving TDs. You left those out. He also had 100+ rushing yards at 10 yards per carry and 3 rushing TDs. And all this while playing in a boring, run-first offense. Not sure what metric you're using to justify Milton as "the better WR". Either way, ISM and Milton are the two WRs on the All-Iowa roster to start the season. I guess if people don't want to call them "locks" then, ok.

This receiver played in a run first offense. What are your thoughts on him?

He's not a shoe in best WR, but you could certainly make the case. He didn't have as many TD's because he's not someone you target when in the red zone. He had two 70+ yard TD's last year. When you have guys like Pettway, Kolar, Allen, Soehner, and Sean Shaw Jr, you're not going to target guys like Milton and Jones in the red zone, which usually means they aren't scoring many TD's.

Milton had the 2nd best ypc in the Big 12 last year, behind a pretty good guy named Ceedee Lamb. ISM and Milton are different receivers though. They're targeted differently because they have different skill sets. Both of them are very good and are locks.

 

[TheJackWePack5]

No doubt. If ISM isn't a lock at WR, there are no locks at WR.

To start the season I agree it’s probably Milton & ISM.

Just a hunch that Hutchison and Shaw will be pushing for a spot.

There should probably be 3 WR's and 2 TE's on the list no?
