Can we disguise Hakeem “Bruce” Butler and bring him back?Hakeem Butler tweeted earlier this year along the lines of how lazy our receivers were. Im sure he has great character, but multiple times this year Shaw gave about the worst effort imaginable on 50/50 balls. I think he has the potential to be pretty damn good, but he has to elevate that area of the game. He’s responsible for a couple of Dekkers INTs.
I don't have an easy way to check, but I'd guess he was out there more than just about any WRs after X and Jaylin.
Possibly so, but both were irrelevant if not detrimental to the offense all season anyway. Wilson was a better blocker than Shaw at least.Pretty sure Wilson was the 3rd WR more often than not
I would say Stanley was the 3rd receiver. Then Shaw & Bittner(sp?) seemed to get the next level snaps. Wilson was probably at that 2nd level some games- but I think he had injury issues as well.Pretty sure Wilson was the 3rd WR more often than not

I don’t think so. Stanley was on the field way more than Shaw. Stanley was an accident waiting to happen.I don't have an easy way to check, but I'd guess he was out there more than just about any WRs after X and Jaylin.
Good call on Stanley, I was forgetting him. Think he lined up predominately in the slot though, where Wilson and Shaw were outside guys. Sorry, I don't know the exact position terminology (WR XYZ etc)I would say Stanley was the 3rd receiver. Then Shaw & Bittner(sp?) seemed to get the next level snaps. Wilson was probably at that 2nd level some games- but I think he had injury issues as well.

Looking at this list I'm going to say playing time was way more important than NIL.Jayden Gray enters transfer portal
Iowa State football saw its first postseason transfer Monday as edge rusher Jayden Gray announced over social media that he would be entering the portal. https://twitter.com/Jayden_Gray97/status/1597311257073573888 Gray played in one game during the 2021 season before redshirting for the Cyccyclonefanatic.com
Connor reports that Jayden Gray is hitting the portal. First Cyclone of a few I'm sure. Lower rated 3-star defensive end out of TX. No other P5 offers besides Iowa State. I am guessing he was pretty far away from making an impact.
Outgoing transfers (will keep list updated on this post):
DE Blake Peterson, RS SO
DE Jayden Gray, RS SO
RB Deon Silas, TR SO
S Mason Chambers TR JR
QB Nate Glantz TR JR
LB Hunter Zenzen RS SO
WR Sean Shaw RS SR (assuming he has one to play still, with covid year)
Our current transfers dont look different than they would most years. I wont suspect NIL unless some of our young guns on defense leave. Tampa, Purchase, and Freyler are all capable or really helping teams out for years to come. Those are the guys I would be worried about getting bags of cash. Purchase and Freyler have a new coach in their home state that will likely have those bags as well.Looking at this list I'm going to say playing time was way more important than NIL.
I'm pumped a few days in we have not lost any young receivers or young LBers we are banking on.Looking at this list I'm going to say playing time was way more important than NIL.
I see the backup to Campbell at Iowa entered the portal. Guessing he fits the mold, but don't blame the guy for not going to a rival.I'm pumped a few days in we have not lost any young receivers or young LBers we are banking on.
WR still has guys who have yet to receive their shot: Jason Essex, Greg Gaines, Aiden Bitter, still could be some players in that room.
And Stanley played more than Shaw as well.Pretty sure Wilson was the 3rd WR more often than not
Dang.....A little digging shows that about half of FBS and FCS football players who enter the portal have not joined a new school by the next season.
the grass isn't always greenerDang.....
Jacobs? He was a starter with Campbell. Got hurt early on. Was on the preseason award lists. Will be a huge get for somebody.I see the backup to Campbell at Iowa entered the portal. Guessing he fits the mold, but don't blame the guy for not going to a rival.
I saw a stat that over the last three years on average only ~40% of the transfers find a new home.A little digging shows that about half of FBS and FCS football players who enter the portal have not joined a new school by the next season.
