No argument here. I just think people spend a lot of time and energy, complaining about our staff and their recruiting issues, when if you really look at the big picture long term, they have a solid plan, and do a pretty damn good job of keeping Iowa competitive most years. I'm still not sold that anyone, (Meyer, Harbough, whomever), could do a better job of recruiting and developing a better team consistently, AT IOWA, then the current staff. Just IMHO of course..
I see what you were trying to say, my apologies. Completely agree with the premise of this post
Agree, how we continue to identify and develop DB's is beyond me. King, Jackson and Hooker all win DB of the year and all 3 lightly recruited by P5 teams. I do like our new WR coach Copeland, IMO ISM and Smith are the best WR combo we have had since DJK and MM, both improved drastically from last year and are only Soph. I also believe Tracy will have an impact next year too. If we are able to keep both TE's......our offense could be dare I say.......explosive!
I went to the 1st two Fan Fests and the Norm Parker talk during Michigan prep week was fantastic...man was that guy funny.
Sounds familiar I think the first two were in 2003/2004?... we were having a little bit too much fun
I knew that when the next morning the football they gave us to get signed had 2 Bob Sanders autographs on it. I know Roth didn't seem thrilled to be there the couple times I saw him
OSU LBer coach visited yesterday, he got a call from Day today. I know we have someone visiting him this week.
i hope he's been watching the elite D your coaches were able to assemble with all those 4/5* players being wasted there
I would be shocked if Day doesn't make changes on the D staff. Bill Davis, the current LB coach, needs to go. Would not be shocked to see Schiano leave if something opens up at the college level or perhaps as an assistant in the NFL. We do have decent decent depth at LB. Our starting LBs and backups will be mostly juniors and seniors next year. From what I know about Jacobs it may take a year or two before he sees any significant playing time wherever he goes.i hope he's been watching the elite D your coaches were able to assemble with all those 4/5* players being wasted there
No it doesn’t. I’m guessing if it were explained to you(and I’m sure it has been), you’d continue to post the same crap.
If you’ve ever listened to the coaches talk publicly their rule is if you commit and take an official visit with another school they pull the offer. Unless they are now making special exceptions which doesn’t seem like a Kirk thing to do.
Don't know that much about Kirk's rule but if any school makes a practice of pulling the offers of major recruits taking visits after they commit, well, you'd be signing a roster of 2 and 3 star recruits. Big time recruits take visits after committing all the time and it happens at all the major powers. It's just the state that CF recruiting is at today.
This kid knows what he's doing, he wants Iowa to pull his offer. That way he doesn't look like the bad guy.
This issue has been talked about numerous times on those Iowa podcasts.
If that’s the case his offer would be gone now. He visited OSU after committing to Iowa.
