Eno - RB MVP

how long have you been following recruiting? This kid is not coming to Iowa. Every year there is a top flight talent that Iowa gets on early and he says a few nice things about Iowa. Then more offers come in and more awards and Iowa doesn't make the cut or becomes the bridesmaid. Bet your house or your moped with other diehard Hawk fans that he won't end up at Iowa and you'll make some nice money.

I'm a terrible gambler, so you may very well be right. However, I'll stick with him until he commits to someone else.

He hasn't committed here....we are on the top of his list of 10 schools....but no commitment
 
Yeah I mean look at the AJ Epenesa situation. We never get these kids of kids...... oh wait! Different year. Different things building around the program. And he's been on campus and named us his leader. So when he comes to Iowa, apologize to everyone around here for being such a downer.

Apparently if Iowa is destined to strike out with every top flight talent they should stop trying to recruit them and stick to the MAC talent were assured of getting. Maybe Iowa strikes out a lot on the elite talent, but they can't hit the homer if they're not swinging for the fence. Funny how people can be negative about Iowa signing MAC level talent, but also negative when Iowa goes after elite talent. Tough crowd.....:)

A lot of top programs strike out on a lot of top talent. Going after top kids is what helps make you a top program. Glad to be in the hunt even if we don't get him.

Eno doesn't have an offer from Texas yet, if he gets one from them then I'll start worrying about our chances of getting him. But if that offer never comes I think we have a great shot at landing Eno

Weren't you the guy that repeatedly let us all know before the season last year that we weren't going to be any good and if we wanted to witness a "real practice" that we should see what Arizona State had cooking? (went 6-7) If I'm remembering that wrong then I apologize. If not, you might want to stick to just following along rather than making predictions.
 
Eno earned RB MVP at the Texas RIVALS camp, in Dallas, this weekend. Edged out JK Dobbins, Ohio State
recruit for the honor! Keeps looking better and better!!

They do have value, but many of these recruiting analysts overrate these pad less camps, when it comes down to it, it's not football. When your film looks insane and you have rushed for 4900 yards and 70 TD's like JK Dobbins did during his soph and jr years in Texas, does who wins MVP of a camp really matter? Not IMO, tOSU is getting an absolute beast in Dobbins, he looks ridiculous with the ball.

You're talking about a kid whose dad played for Iowa and that probably grew up a hawk vs a random kid from texas(or any other recruit w/ no real iowa ties).

You guys realize we have an entire season to play before most these kids will truly decide where they are going, right?

I think Iowa should recruit and offer quality players, but I'm not gonna hold my breath for 10-11 months :).

No knock on Dobbins...he is really good back. Meyer only goes after guys with speed, plus Dobbins is a very hard runner. If he didn't have two backs already, Urban would be very happy to get Eno, too. Iowa doesn't pull in many 4* guys, so it's a little more exciting for Hawk fans to have one interested in Iowa. Buckeyes are pulling in one of their best recruiting classes this year. Just another year of 4 and 5* players for tOSU.

They are both really good backs. Eno is a perfect fit for Iowas offense.

Why the heck would Texas worry you? They have been crappy for several years now. Baylor and TCU are the top programs in the state.

He was pretty excited when he put the Texas uniform on, when he went to visit the Longhorns.
Home state kid, maybe he's always wanted to play for them. That's why it would worry us.

yeah i know it's his home state but Texas stinks. And i haven't seen him say anywhere that Texas is his dream school

That's true, but eventually we will find out when they offer. Can't let one of the best running backs in your state leave, without at least offering.

His "dream offer" came from Michigan. That worried me for a bit. But Iowa still led after his visits. A Texas off would worry me because he seemed to love Texas on Twitter without an offer.
 
Texas as a offer out to 4* RB Toneil Carter if he turns them down then I think Eno gets the next offer.
