Ben Probst, I believe he was originally committed to Nebraska, could be wrong. Throws a 90-91 mph fastball. Welcome aboard!
Since the new coach, Iowa has gotten most of the top talent. I am not sure about other schools but I was under the impression Iowa is NOT a 100% scholarship? COuld be wrong.Nebraska has had a lot of success with kids from Iowa. Iowa needs to lock the state down. Does he get drafted?
Did Dahm not recruit Iowa very hard, why didn't the top guys want to come to Iowa when he was here? Was it just because they weren't very good or other stuff going on? By all accounts it seems like he is a super nice guy but it doesn't look like he is doing much at Mt Mercy either.
Iowa is a fully funded program. Meaning they have the full 11.7 scholarships to divide amongst all roster spots. Title IX is a ****ing jokeSince the new coach, Iowa has gotten most of the top talent.

Jack Dahm is a helluva nice guy that likes to play golf etc.Did Dahm not recruit Iowa very hard, why didn't the top guys want to come to Iowa when he was here?

We had a kid go through our high school program, that was all everything. Dahm and Iowa didn't pursue him much.......and he had a nice career with Nebraska.Did Dahm not recruit Iowa very hard, why didn't the top guys want to come to Iowa when he was here?

True, it is tough to compete against the Southern schoolsHis main focus was Illinois. It's tough for Heller, too. It will always be a battle to keep the top guys from going to southern schools (Lillard, Van Scoyoc) but Heller has done a great job of preventing kids from heading to Nebraska or Illinois.
Ok, I was just looking at this year I guess and saw the record wasn't good.We had a kid go through our high school program, that was all everything. Dahm and Iowa didn't pursue him much.......and he had a nice career with Nebraska.
Dahm's doing ok at Mt.Mercy, but they did not qualify for Nationals this year. The school's biggest thing right now is securing money/donations for their new athletic complex (track, football, baseball, softball) that is currently being built. From what I hear, Dahm has been a key person with that.
Hawks snagged another recruit, pitcher Brady Schanuel, juco guy. Was at Ole Miss, but ended up back at his juco. Freshmen year he was 10-3 1.80 131 Ks in 83.2 innings. He was drafted in 2016. Looks like a good pick up
So those that follow baseball closer than I, what does the addition of Brady make our staff look like for next year? Go hawks! Does CJ get a med RS for the elbow injury and I thought two other pitchers had Tommy John?
Saw on twitter that football recruit Henry Marchese is a big baseball prospect, could get drafted in the top 5 rounds, seems like he really wants to play football at Iowa. Would be cool to have on the baseball team, too. I believe he's a CF.
Who was the last Hawkeye to play both football and baseball. Dannan Hughes? Bo Porter?
This is fun speculation.Hawks snagged another recruit, pitcher Brady Schanuel, juco guy. Was at Ole Miss, but ended up back at his juco. Freshmen year he was 10-3 1.80 131 Ks in 83.2 innings. He was drafted in 2016. Looks like a good pick up
Think it is based on first game. Iowa was visitor, UN was home.Why is Iowa the home team today? Shouldn't it go by seed?
Gallagher is a junior, I think he will get drafted. I'd love to see him back, not sure though.
One thing I've noticed is we don't have anyone out of the bullpen that can run it up there fast enough to come in and blow away hitters
Nebraska just now brings in a guy bumping 93. Iowa needs some guys like that
Ok. So 1 guy.... we need MoRE...
