In before someone says to move him to TE


Great pickup. I think it will pay off to have a variety of different types of targets on the field.

Just saying they have a good eye for talent

They seem to get in on guys early if they really want them. They are all really busting their butts to scout talent, that's for sure.

And fit. It's still pretty early in the regime but it seems like they're not just pulling talent for talent's sake. The kids coming in fit in the culture they're building in Ames.

Ivy (Cornell, Columbia) offers. I always like seeing those.

And good character kids. I see this one has a couple of Ivy League offers.

Looking at the recruiting class, I take it that you mean 6’3”, 6’4”, and 6’5”?

This staff sure likes the tall receivers, which I love. Obviously you have to throw in a couple smaller speedy slot guys too, like Jones, Akers, and Milton, but I love all the tall targets we have.

I think sometimes coaches get too concerned about having smaller, fast guys that can get behind defenses, and take a short pass to the house, while overlooking guys that are basically always open because of their height and can sometimes extend plays with pure strength.

I am reasonably sure that Darien Porter will be able to get behind defenses, and take a short pass to the house.

I’m on my phone, or I’d add a really contented emoticon here.

There is certainly a place for speedy guys, like Ryen last year, but tall, possession type WRs are undervalued by some programs.

I don’t think that’s a thing. I’m pretty sure every program values tall receivers.

Ask Iowa if tall WR's like Hakeem Butler can get behind defenses.
