He was too good, Kirk wanted him gone.
look at this Kirk bootlicker.Love the social media idiots claiming this is KFs fault. Dude got an OWI and (assuming) hasn't worked his way out of the doghouse with working hard in practice. If people can't see the offense is significantly better and we actually have a resemblance of a passing game when the QB has time, I don't know what to tell you.
(Unless this actually all is injury related)
Right??look at this Kirk bootlicker.
The portal COULD BE a huge boon to the program if utilized correctly. That's a huge IF today given the problems that have existed and may still exist from an offensive staff perspective.Another example of how the portal is not going to be the elixir for this program.
True, but Gill, who is from the portal, has done a great job and is probably our best wr.Another example of how the portal is not going to be the elixir for this program.
(It was a joke based on how much Billiken rips on Kirk every saturday throughout the season)Right??
Guy was a total piece of shit who put himself before the team and Kirk was totally right in keeping him on the bench. Oh, unless it's all injury related. Now I've just outed myself as a know nothing who feels compelled to shill for Kirk with no real knowledge about anything that's occurred. I only know that Kirk always does what's best for the team and humanity. Just don't ask me how I know that. I just do.
Agreed. Having TeSlaa on the roster would be nice.I would say as far as the portal goes, iowa would be better off focusing on lower division or non-P5 kids that werent big hs recruits that have actually been productive and want a chance to prove it at the P5/B10 level, vs guys from bigger schools that had a bigger recruiting profile but have never really done anything at the big level (or have questionable health lol).
And the beat goes on, and on and on…Iowa is currently ranked 127th out of 133 teams in passing offense.
(thx for understanding 😉)(It was a joke based on how much Billiken rips on Kirk every saturday throughout the season)
Its perfectly reasonable to side with Kirk on this
It's also hard to build a program of receivers that are the little engine that could. One guy that's a bit of a diamond in the rough that develops is great, but at some point we need an impact receiver. When you continue to be a bottom 5 team in the passing game it just absolutely kills recruiting at that position. I'd kill for a Brandon Smith right now!Agreed. Having TeSlaa on the roster would be nice.
There are usually reasons that guys don’t pan out at the bigger programs that aren’t magically fixed by a change of scenery.
He gone and honestly with this shit show offense who blames him!!!
Who is Alabama's back up left tackler? Proctor's backup.... is he any good? IDK, but if he's a sophomore/junior sitting behind Proctor, he surely would look to transfer. These are the kinda sloppy 2nd's Iowa should be going after. Good recruit, but sitting behind studs.The portal COULD BE a huge boon to the program if utilized correctly.

I think you’d be surprised.How much will he get in NIL money at his next school? Based on performance, probably not much.

He’d actually fit very well at ISU as much it pains me write that.I would say I'm disappointed, but he didn't make any difference to this offense anyway. Not really sure what else to say. We're stuck with the way things are until Kirk leaves. We won't change our philosophies or how we operate until he's gone.
Just hope Kaleb doesn't end up at another B1G school or the shitty cyclowns.
Not saying it will play out the same but I remember reading similar things about Charlie Jones when he entered the portal.I would say I'm disappointed, but he didn't make any difference to this offense anyway.

That would beEveryone laughs at his production but he’ll end up at Purdue and be their next 1,500 yard receiver.

Talent is only talent - start worrying about performance. Something he has not been able to give for far more reasons than just the QB.Yeah. With so much talent in that room he won't be missed.
We deserve it, at this pointThat would be
A. Hilarious
and
B. Not surprising at all
Sure, but he was easily the most effective offensive weapon when he was in there last year. It's not like Iowa garnered a bunch of receiver talent above him, so what happened over the past 12 months?Talent is only talent - start worrying about performance. Something he has not been able to give for far more reasons than just the QB.
For sure, it’s just a really poor situation. Right now Gill appears to be our “impact” guy, and I’m glad we have him. I think we have some young guys that have good body types (Howard, RVZ, Buie), but man, they need to make massive leaps in the near future to have anything resembling a receiving corps.It's also hard to build a program of receivers that are the little engine that could.

That's like saying he was the tallest little person - hardly a reason to lose any sleep over losing someone who can't crack this lineup, for whatever the reason(s) are.Sure, but he was easily the most effective offensive weapon when he was in there last year. It's not like Iowa garnered a bunch of receiver talent above him, so what happened over the past 12 months?
No one wanted to see Charlie leave. Many were pissed, rightfully, when he announced.Not saying it will play out the same but I remember reading similar things about Charlie Jones when he entered the portal.
Are you blaming KB for that?Oh shucks, where else will we find someone to fill his production of.... 1 reception for 18 yards on the season.
This^Unless there are significant changes in offensive philosophy, those WRs won’t come to Iowa either. They have a better chance making the NFL staying on their current team, than they do at Iowa. WRs get no exposure at Iowa and that hurts them.
Iowa needs to prove that they know how to develop and utilize WR talent, before they ever consider coming here. Iowa is a place where NFL dreams go to die for WRs. This perception won’t change anytime soon.
