A TE that nobody wanted and didn't produce? Yes that's an outlierYou think Iowa getting TE into the NFL is an outlier?

Ragin Cajun uglyUgly like ISU v Ragin Cajuns ugly or normal ugly?

Meyers, Hockenson, Reisner, Chandler and Clark didn't produce in college? Lol OKBrandon Myers, George Kittle, TJ Hockenson, Allen Reisner, Scott Chandler, and Dallas Clark. I think 1 other P5 offer between the 6 of them. So 6 of them are all outliers?

See that AND in there @Legend Hawk ?
are they soft? does he use lotion.LaPorta has some of the best hands I’ve seen on a TE. I really think he is the next Hockenson/Myers/Chandler type TE.
I'm not bashing anyone. I don't understand the LaPorta hype but not many do. Nobody wanted him and he didn't produce last yearYou keep bashing on TE recruits that Iowa gets that "nobody wants". Well nobody wanted those 6 NFL TE's, I think they will end up just fine, history shows that.
Where did he say soft hands? I'm reading "some of the best".are they soft? does he use lotion.

Have you seen Allen block though?LaPorta is a true Fr. that played 1/2 the games last year. He put up better numbers than all 6 of those iowa NFL TE as true Fr.
I will also just leave these stats here as well.
LaPorta 15 catches 188 yards in 6 games
Allen 17 catches 167 yards in 10 games

Maybe he's just not clutch?He'd better use those stone hands for something, because they sure ain't for catching the ball. That guy has no shot at the NFL, LaPorta on the other hand is way ahead of guys like Clark, Reisner, Chandler, Myers, Kittle, and Hockenson were when they were true Fr.
Why did he only play 1/2 games last year? He was the only TE on the rosterLaPorta is a true Fr. that played 1/2 the games last year. He put up better numbers than all 6 of those iowa NFL TE as true Fr.

So you just didn't play a TE the first 6 games?He was a Fr., had to get him up to speed.

Allen is a multi year All Conference guyWe do have other TE besides LaPorta. Just takes awhile for a TE to get up to speed. Kind of like ISU playing Stonehands on Saturday. I mean I gotta believe that ISU has better TE behind him that just are young and not up to speed yet. I'm guessing by midseason if you have anyone with any talent at TE behind him, they will overtake Stonehands.
