COMMIT: Iowa lands 2026 Three-Star QB, Cash Herrera

[kceasthawk]

I fully understand Kirk is a great guy..a guy that builds good relationships with players, player’s families, and coaches.

But that has only gotten us so far. His philosophy is outdated. His conservative nature doesn’t equate to much more than “we’ve beaten Nebraska 7 of the last 8.”

We have started the process of not even being competitive with the upper tier of just this conference alone.

I certainly understand your view, BUT lets just really look at the big picture, or B1G picture if you prefer. Other then a few years in the 50's just when has Iowa EVER been competitive with Michigan and OSU? A few years under Fry, (kind of), and a few years under Kirk. I mean this is nothing new for Iowa, or really ANY of the other B1G schools and will only get somewhat harder now. Will we beat them occassionally? One would hope. Are we or any of the other teams in somewhat similar demographics of our league ever be "competitive" with the big 2 on a sustained basis? As fans we can all hope for such, but it hasn't happened in the last 70 years of B1G football....

We've had two recent Cali QBs. Spence and Deac.

We also have another on current team. Transfer from Colorado State who is from the same HS - LaJolla. I think I'll try to make it to one of his games as I'm 5 miles from La Jolla.

that's why we play the games...

Straight outta the mean streets of La Jolla.

Bishops HS is a private catholic school, one of the best academic schools in California. It sits two blocks from the pacific coast, LaJolla Cove. Very expensive as well.

That's what running backs are for. Better question, is he elusive? Can he protect the ball?

Ok. Ya we'll find out today why iowa may need a little better mobile or running QB. See how KJ does against the Buckeyes. Lol.

 

[Mohawkeye]

He hasn't been stellar. But he's on his 3rd offensive coordinator, has been injured, and as a result of the injury unable to play during Spring ball. He's allowed to get better as the season progresses too. So maybe hold off on the verdict of whether he's a good or bad QB for now.

I’m sorry, but I think the 5th year senior has played enough for us to render an opinion.

Cash Herrara's Bishop School won 50-0 versus Escondido Charter HS. FYI, Bishops has a RB committed to Notre Dame. A nice 1-2 punch.

But... but... does he grip the ball by the laces and can he block?

You know there's probably a 35% chance that he never takes a meaningful snap in an Iowa uniform, right?

You mean he can't block?

Same could be said for a decent chunk of every recruiting class, what’s your point?

He may be talking about WW3 interrupting things??
