Ferentz visited Waggoner last night, UCLA also involved
- Thread starter hawkeye bb n fb fan
- Start date
KF went to go see Waggoner yesterday to explain the whole situation in person instead of over the phone. There's still a chance Iowa ends up taking him, but they have more needs than spots available right now.
They have bigger needs than DE right now. Specifically, they told Leonard Taylor they're going to take a DB instead.
First of all, can you please stop with all the confrontation and profanity?
Second, I don't think you understand how the recruiting rules work. The reason you're seeing KF on the road "just now" is this is the first week of the contact period, meaning the first week coaches can do in-home visits, period, and head coaches only get one in-home visit with each recruit.
Third, you're not following recruiting very closely if you've never heard of KF visiting a recruit outside a 5 hour radius of Iowa City. Here are a few just from last year with photos as requested.
Alabama
Texas
Florida
Mississippi
And yet we signed a 2-star Ath from Illinois. Need anymore proof that the rankings are meaningless to KF. Interestingt when you think about it...
And I'll admit, it makes me chuckle that these Internet Coaches are so concerned about it. When KF leaves that will be fine with me as long as we hire a solid replacement, but the anxt he causes some of these cats really is entertaining.. its not like they are unique but KF handles the fans better than most coaches.
Let me assure he does not know even a smidgen of what he thinks he knows, so undoubtedly he hasn't been paying attention.
I'm just doing what you pay me to do, Blair. But yeah, sure thing. Thanks for your responses.
He pays you to act like a fool?
That's a sweet gig!
Keeping reading after
Well, you responded quickly when your integrity was questioned but a coaches integrity can be constantly and wrongly questioned on these boards just saying...
Trying to read the tea leaves....... We don't take Waggoner because creaddith is a Hawk?
Tyler Wiegers, do you think he stay's for his last year or leaves to be a starter at another school ?
Watched him in the playoffs a couple of weeks ago..didn't really standout to me..I thought their linebacker was a stud though.
We started with 5, then 6, now 7 miles to the beach. Soon, someone will claim UCLA is in Nebraska and half of the people here will believe it.
So, Iowa has to recruit against this? Uh, oh.
Yes, they are hot. And guaranteed crazy as a ring tailed cat as well.
Those are fun to rent for a weekend, but give me a hot Midwestern babe any day.
I'm sure to replace Josh Jackson so he can get paid in the league after winning Tatum Award, possible Jim Thorpe Award, First Team All B1G and top league db. He'd be crazy not to go after Des King missed out on a lot of money when he decided to come back for senior year then dropped so far in the draft since no one threw his way senior year. Come on down Dallas C!
Regarding John W, he is probably waiting for that ND offer. Good luck with that kid but could cost you a ride to Iowa if they don't have a spot available at the February signing period.
KF and coaches are trying to get as many signed in the early period so they don't have to scramble last minute like in years past. Really like this early signing period to secure your players and know who really want to play for the Hawks instead of wait for a better offer last minute with the February date which has worked for and against Iowa in years past. I'm sure there will be a lot of movement once all the dust settles with coaching changes. Who knows, John W could end up at Nebraska if ND doesn't come through, Iowa doesn't have a spot and Scott Frost(?) is scrambling to sign players.
Again.......the take away here is .....most people have no idea what there talking about. All the talk about Kirk's recruiting is ridicules. The guy recruits kids that keep there mouths shut ....and willing to learn ....and are not disruptive to the team! He takes 2* players and puts them in the NFL. It would be much easier to put a spoiled, big headed 5* in the NFL but doesn't want the BS that comes along with some of those guys! That in my book makes him a good recruiter and coach. Again ....some people think they are owed a top 5 team every year ....it aint gonna happen ...get over it!
I could see him deciding that if he has a college degree it is no longer worthwhile to put in the effort to be a backup QB. From what little we have seen of him as a player, I cannot envision him walking in as a starter at an FCS or FBS school.
Someone had to satisfy Jake's girlfriend, he probably stuck the mattress 3 feet short of the target...
I would think that there are some 4-5* kids who keep their mouth shut and want to go to the NFL. Epenesa comment in .. 3....2....1...
Banned? Who said anything about that. I just enjoy posters who are always negative, have no clue what they are talking about, and spread lies being put in their place and proven wrong. If I wanted you banned, I’d just put you on my personal banned list (ignore).
Well
No blue bloods swooping in late when they have misses or decommits are the biggest benefits to schools like Iowa KF wants the kids to sign in Dec
You're going to need him and about 15 other guys like him to start being competitive. Good luck.
I disagree completely. If the rumors are true, it looks like holding out has cost him multiple offers, including Iowa, ISU, tOSU (not sure he was always a first take for them), and some of his other big offers. I'm unsure how his recent season and film would have impacted his status if committed, but I don't see how this has helped him, coaching changes or not.
Crystal Ball 247 is all Iowa...
Who ya got?
Wiegers
Joly
Falconer
D. Young?
Duncan?
Also wonder if they put Brincks on scholly, he's played a lot for a walkon..is Gervase on full ride? If Jackson leaves early, then there's another open spot.
