So Iowa should have tied him up and kept him in a crawl space? Eff him, Charlie is looking out for Charlie, not his teammates or anyone else. I don’t understand everyone’s homoerotic crush for a guy who is essentially a good special teams guy.
Charles Jones
- Thread starter HawkNorth
- Start date
Catches in a game. 3 is the most multiple catches in a game at Iowa. Last year he had 21 catches for 323 yards and 3 td’s. 2020, none, zero catches.
You think because Iowa has a great defense the WRs are fine with a subpar QB?
Stop embarrassing yourself
7/91 at beginning of 3rd. "Chuck Sizzle" looking good to me.
Lol this thread is gold. If you still can’t figure out why Jones left or you’re still trying to insinuate he was actually the 4th or beyond best WR on the team than there is no point in trying to explain it to you. Good for Charlie, hope he puts up elite numbers all year, except when they play Iowa.
You know Brohm is gonna get the ball to Chuck Sizzle and TT as much as possible to stick it up their arses.
This really isn't all that complicated.
Charlie Jones performed well on special teams for Iowa. Was that a function of him being that talented. Or, Iowa special teams executing and him benefiting from that. I'd say a bit of both.
He was a solid WR, made some plays at Iowa and was not the main option in an anemic passing offense. He left so he could be a bigger part of an offense, catch some balls from his buddy and do what is best for Charlie. His right to do so. I say good riddance.
If someone said one receiver, from Iowa, was transferring and it was between A. Bruce, C. Jones and K. Johnson...... I say we made out in that deal. CM is right. If Charlie Jones, all 190 lbs. of him, is your number 1 option? Good luck Purdue.

You do realize that the offense could of put Bruce, Johnson, and Chuck Sizzle on the field at the same time right?
You do realize it's illegal to use formations other than 1 WR, 2 TE, 1 FB, 1 RB.... right?
My take is that Charlie was undervalued , but the evaluation of TT was dead on.
Purdue is using him creatively and lining up out wide, not just in the slot. I think the question for him came down to having to fight it out to be the #3 guy at Iowa (no argument from me that KJ and AB are better) and starting out as #4 behind Ragaini…or go to Purdue where he there was no one entrenched ahead of him. I think if he knew he was for sure #3, and not behind Ragaini, he may still well be at Iowa.
I know it requires a different formation but tell Brian to watch old Michigan games to figure out this three receiver formation set.
8 catches, 101 yards, and 1 td. That total is a third of what he caught all season last year….21, 323, and 3.
LoL. Only at Iowa. Son is OC on 121 ranked O out of 130 then gets promoted to QB coach. No wonder Chuck Sizzle GTFO.

He was our 4th best WR, so that fares well for our WR group and our offense
Yeah, we now know why he left Iowa. He is seeing the ball a lot at PU, big loss for Iowa
You need to contact Kirk and Steve Roe for new talking points (aka the company line)
It is amazing the good things that can happen when your passing game uses the entire field for the wide receivers. 80+% of the Hawks' WR routes are of the sideline variety with an occasional seam route normally with Ragaini.
Great news! Iowa definitely wins a natty this year. Elite defense, and the offense has 2 or 3 WRs better than Charlie Jones and a potential AA at TE. Should be putting up 40+ ppg with that kind of talent.
Agree, I'm not sure why anyone questions his transfer. He wanted targets and Purdue was going to give him far more than Iowa.
‘And Iowa didn’t use him the way they should have. This seems hard for you to understand.
This is why NFL teams hate trading guys within their own division. I know iowa didn’t trade him…but you get the point. If Purdue wins this game (and would be in large part thanks to Charlie), it goes a long way to helping their BIG west hopes on top of the optics for Iowa.
And Iowa didn’t utilize him the way they should have. Hard for you to figure out as well?
Looks like we had a WR1 on the roster last year after all
