Rumor has it QB Grayson McCall of Coastal Carolina might be had.
Portal targets
- Thread starter Cliffking
- Start date
Misspelled his name already so I think that's a sign he would be great for the hawks!
Only OL I know of that Iowa offered is the guy from Cornell.
Can be bring the WR Tinsley that is hitting the portal as well? 6'1 physical, speed and hands.
Get him
We have a pretty good OT at Kentucky in Nassir Watkins who entered the portal. He got a lot of playing time as a freshman and showed great promise but unfortunately had some injuries that he couldn’t shake. Due to that, he was passed up in the depth chart but was still talented enough that in a given year could’ve been a solid starter in the SEC. I think he would be a valuable asset to any team, especially one who likes to utilize the ground game.

Yeah, excited for Brecht and these guys are more than just good players. If they were in a good passing offense they would have put up huge numbers this year. I want see Brecht take over the X spot and then you can have Bruce in the slot and Johnson in the ISM role. I just hope the offense is changed to take advantage of actually having good WRs. Heck put O'Keefe back in charge, at least he knew how to do that.
I think he is just saying that McCall may transfer out, not that Iowa is a possibility…if that is what you are questioning?
Or maybe he thinks Iowa is a possibility. In that case, I also find it hard to believe.
Tyler Barnes started following a Vanderbilt transfer. CB Gabe Jeudy-Lally. Started for them this season.
Also following Jeremiah Lewis. Transfer starting CB from Duke.

I love all the portal talk, but unless the OL gets fixed in the offseason... none of it means sh**
Add a veteran center or Tackle and I think we will be fine with Ince, Britt, Plumb, DeJong, Colby, Elsbury, Richmond, Stevens, Davidkov & Myslinski. I would love to lock down LT or C with a really top notch grad transfer to bring some stability until the younger linemen are ready.
The way it stands, we better hope a couple of the younger guys grow up a lot in the next 6-8 months.
This. I'm a bit shocked that we are pursuing cb targets, unless we are thinner there than I thought
Mad respect for the loyalty!
I heard thee were more QB's in the portal than ever before. Not even sure why I bothered to post that.
I think KJ is our best WR, but needs to spend a significant amount of time in the off-season working on his hands. They all need to work on their routes. Grabbing a 6’3-6’5 speedy WR could work wonders for our offense, you know, theoretically. Nothing changes overall until we are able to scheme appropriately
That's unfortunate for the young man, hope he sees a urologist soon
Keep the faith ….Iowa has a good track record of development and growth.
Barnes started following this WR transfer from Wyoming. Good states for a freshman.

How many 6’3 - 6’5 speedy WR are available! You make it seem like there are 100’s of them out there just waiting to be picked up by any team willing to take a chance on them. Seriously some of you people are just un****ingbelievable!
There is one above
And surprisingly Barnes is following on Twitter.
I feel totally demoralized if we can't even land a Teal pisser.
Completion percentage is strong, but if we need a guy with at least decent wheels, he's not the QB transfer we're looking for. He has a career total of -1 rushing yards.
If we have learned anything since Banks, it's that Iowa is not going to have a QB with positive rushing yards, so if we can't have that, we need one that completes over 60% of his passes.
So basically 133 years per year. You consider this a win? Why don't you take a look at Iowa's best season with Bethard at QB and tell me what his completion percentage was.
I agree we want the QB to complete over 60%. Who would disagree? It's not an either/or proposition. In 2015 CJB completed 61.6% for 2809 yards and rushed for 237. Seems like a win to me.
Besides passing ability, the Hawks need a QB with sufficient wheels to pick up a few yards when receivers are covered or on the (very) occasional designed run. Banks, Chandler, Tate, Stanzi, Vandenburg, Rudock, and Beathard could all do that. Can Bazelak?
You can feel free to have this conversation with BBhawk if you prefer. It's been stated over and over. The coaches are not likely at this point to go after a transfer.
You can't see the serious potential in the true frosh?
Agreed. They would really have to be certain it was the right guy. Bazalek isn’t it.
Big Dude all decked out in Liberty Football gear yesterday in the Cedar Rapids Airport but the only thing I can find is DT William Green may be transferring out of Liberty! He was a big dude!
