How does that compare to other schools?

 

[Franisdaman]

Iowa actually has 43.

Of course the first person to question it is a clone.

Amazes me that we're tied with Clemson, beating Tennessee and Wisky, and only 1 short of tying Oregon and Florida.

This upcoming year, Castro, Higgins, Jackson, Lachey, Craig, Shulte, and possibly Cade? should all be drafted.

KF has made a lot of 2 and 3 stars a lot of money

KF has his faults but the player development is pretty impressive

A couple things:

* Doesn't he run his practices similar to how NFL teams run theirs? So Iowa players have seen that, done that once they join an NFL team

* NFL GMs have said many times that they know what they are getting in a KF coached player

Hard to do much better than 90%. I would guess very few above 95%.

Yeah, Iowa has to be way up there

 

[cidhawkeye]

Completely agree. Are there 5, 10, 15, 20+ schools in the 80-90% range? I wouldn't think so but the fewer the schools in that range the bigger the selling point. If they are upper echelon you would think they would push that message even more.

There's something poetic about Iowa being shown with great development while little debbie is on thr opposite end of the spectrum, being called out for bad development.

 

[BirdistheWord]

I think we also over index on undrafted guys that stick. Would push us further up the y axis.

The end of the tweet got cut off; training camp begins tomorrow.

 

[Franisdaman]

If they all stick, Hawkeyes would represent almost 10% of the Lions' 53 man roster....

Hopefully Brandon can stick.

Should have been a flag on that hit. Regardless, a TD. !
Hope he stays the Jags' #2.

Wasn't there? You can see the ump behind him pull his flag.

Ah, I missed that. Good call (you, and the ref).

whatever it takes to make the roster....

Seems like Mac Jones has some momentum. 😬

Gotta wonder if Beathard is done in Jacksonville? And also where he might get picked up if it happens.

*Seems he has played pretty well in any small opportunities behind Lawrence, so I'd guess he will still have opportunities.

Yeah, he has done fairly well in limited opps, but talk about hyper competitive. He is only 30.

BTW, he is ruled out with a groin injury.
