*****Offical 2023 Recruiting Thread*****

Lmao, you are completely devoid of any logic whatsoever. The ISU teams CJB hammered on were also a combined 6-18 if you wanna go that route, they were at least average when Stanley played them (8-5, 8-5, 7-6).

You also conveniently ignored the points I made about Stanley's 3rd down conversions and scrambling against ISU. Some more stats I can add that you'll also probably ignore were Stanley getting sacked only once, whereas CJB took 7 in just two games against them.

The fact that I live rent-free in your head so much proves what a whiny buffoon you are. You're a petulant manchild that mistakes exclamation points and snarky responses for actual football knowledge, and you throw temper tantrums when people rightfully call you out for being a moron. You calling anyone on this board obnoxious is like a black hole calling the pot black.

Precisely what an obnoxious homer would say.
 
Come on man! The ISU special teams bailed out Stanley. He didnt play well enough to win. He was a weakness, just admit it dude.

4 years prior CJB razzle dazzled that ISU defense and was the only reason we won that game. He was the strength of the offense and the team.

Why are you such an obnoxious homer?
And in 2017 Stanley bailed out the defense.

The main point is since Beathard the QB room performance has declined , I would start CJ over Stanley 100% of the time and Stanley over Petras 100% of the time if all healthy . I just want the QB room to get better.
Wrong. EVERYBODY wanted Stanley to play in CJ's last game. CJ could barely walk, let alone run. It was a bloodbath.
 
Proctor and Mauigoa(no IA involvement) are both at Alabama this weekend along with 2 other OT. 5 of the top 25 players in the country are taking officials to Alabama this weekend. They are hosting 10 officials this weekend and 9 of them are in the top 125. All 10 are in the top 145.

It's a different level to be sure that Alabama recruits at. Quite amazing.
 
It'd be nice to wrangle in someone this weekend kicking off the OV's. Feel free to update/correct me on the list.

1.) Kendrick Rapheal (NCSU lean, but getting him to campus is great)
2.) Maverick Noonan (NU lean, but why go to that dumpster fire)
3.) Kade Mcintyre (OU lean)
4.) Nolan Ray
5.) Will Heldt (been to Iowa multiple times)
 
I would think if they get anyone to commit this weekend the best candidates would be Ray and Heldt. But who knows, Raphael could change his mind on NC State once he gets to Iowa.

That must be nice.

I’ll ask my son to provide feedback about the visits. He’ll be at Alabama on Saturday.
 
Black to ISU? Where he will most likely never beat Iowa and not get drafted. Welp onto the next one.
Isn't Kai Black a WR? If so, he's got a much better chance at accumulating stats, drawing attention to himself, and then getting drafted out of ISU as opposed to out of Iowa.

Come on man. Hate ISU all you want but being a WR at Iowa is not a good idea if you want to play pro ball.

Eh, if they also want to play in an inferior, soon-to-be G5 league that's getting left behind. Plus, last ISU WR to get drafted was Butler, who's been a total bust, whereas ISM might be the Vikings no. 3 WR if the rumors are to believed.

Which team has more receivers in the NFL currently?

I'm certainly pumped about ISM sticking with Minnesota, but, Allen Lazard is on the verge of being the Packers' #1 guy, or so Aaron Rodgers said the other day.

I'm sure you're including TE's in the receiver category with that comment, so, the answer is Iowa has more TE's in the league.
And if I DID include TEs, it wouldn't be close.

ISU sucks pretty much in all areas. Iowa has had issues at receiver but they aren't any worse than ISU.

Think some schools saw him as wr others like Iowa as a TE.

Does ISU suck in the running back area? And yes, Iowa is worse than ISU in the wide receiver category as well. This is not arguable, big buy.

Reading comprehension is hard for You I guess , When Healthy did You just miss that part or just ignore that part to push Your point ? When Healthy it isnt even up for debate that CJ is the better option .

Got me there. But Stanley had a nice stretch to play, with a good line, decent running backs, and no pandemic. Petras hasn't really had that.

In any case, I hope Iowa's QB and o-line play this year is a lot better. If both aren't, it's going to be another bad offensive year.

Petras has had plenty of time to make plenty of throws and consistently falls short. This is his 4th full year in the program. If he’s still struggling in the first two games, it’s time to move on.

While I agree with you, as I said, the o-line also must improve or it won't matter who is back there. We saw that last year. If Iowa cannot run the ball effectively, the offense does not work. But there is no reason this group of linemen can't get the job done. And if they can and Petras still fails to connect on his passes, then I agree that it's time to try someone else.

Who do they move on with? Padilla isn't the answer either.

Nope - u better look at the #’s (someone else did the leg work on it in an earlier thread).
