Has happel taken his official visit yet?

[rafferty06]

if not, does anybody know when that will be? Also, anybody hearing anything on Sammy Colbray, i know he had us in his top 5 at one point. Thanks

 

[Squarehat]

Yes

 

[goiahawkeyes]

Pretty sure he took it the day of the Pitt game along with a few others.

I think we will see Happel commit very soon.
Colbray is down to ISU and cornell but it sounds like it's going to be ISU.

Commit very soon to Iowa or just commit very soon?

Why would you go to ISU if you could go to Cornell? Hmm. Just thinking out loud, no response necessary.

Would be awkward to wrestle for Eastern Iowa Wrestling Club and commit somewhere else. Not saying the coaches wouldn't be professional, but it would be weird.

I was thinking the same thing as Tarp, but then I realized I was using my parent brain. I think for some less academically-inclined kids ivy-league Cornell could be intimidating, add in the move to New York, and it just may not everyone's cup of tea.

I have no idea about Colbray's academics.

Colbray is very smart.

Colbray is very smart.

Just gossip but sounds he's leaning Cornell now. Be tough to crack isu lineup at 84 or 97.

 

[grappler6]

Be a huge get for either program.

Omahahawk, we must be talking to the same people. I heard between Cornell and Iowa State also. I don't know if Sammy can make 184 or not. But would sick behind Downey and Harrington for a year or so.

I heard Wicks are between Iowa State and Wisconsin. Nebraska was in mix, but heard they are not going there this weekend

Ouch. Wicks to Wisconsin

 

[TarpHawk]

That's okay. Barry needs a few.

 

[edquinn06]

Does anyone know who Iowa is still recruiting for 2016? I have seen that Rathbun, Happel, and Wagner have done official visits in the last month. Any others?

 

[Omahahawk86]

That's okay. Barry needs a few.

I'm okay with any of the top recruits commiting anywhere but tosu asu or psu.

 

[Jaybird319]

Not much happening w Rathbun unless he's willing to come for little to no money first year

 

[buf87]

Wicks stung. Paulsons were recruiting them a long time. Fargo results made many other schools take notice and they got a lot more expensive.

Ian Parker was a great verbal yesterday. Future lightweights could start with Gomez, Parker and Storr at Iowa State
