Possible Portal Targets Thread

- Start date
Kid would be a great get. As a Soph in the SEC stats
1421 yards passing on 62.6% completion, 12 TDs to 3 INTs, and the most upside aspect of Arnold is 444 yards rushing.
Concerns would be 5.8 y/A on passes, 9 fumbles on those rushes, and was benched against Tennessee due to turnovers
I really hope they don't go this direction unless it is for depth. he couldn't beat out Will Howard or Kyle McCord.Iowa Hawkeyes Must Target Ohio State QB in Transfer Portal

Have a feeling this kid is going to make some money, but would be a great fill game at LB. He is a bit on the shorter side.
doubt any are interested in a 4-8 season
You mean like NO one is interested in your bitchy posts?
I hear ya. A LOT of those “MAC-level recruits” turned out to be very good players. If they stay in the program, the odds are in their favor.
Feth may not have worked out great, but Heflin and Van Vulkenburg were great gets from the MAC.
He was a dude. Good call, I had forgotten about him.
I think Feth worked out pretty well.
Van Vulkenburg came from DII, not that MAC, but your point is still valid.
How many guys can we target? Sounds like there is quite a bit of roster management to do to get to 105 by August.
According to my math after the current portal players we're at 115 rostered players, but we have close to 25+ non-scholarship players that we'll likely be trimming quite a bit from. My educated guess is we'll try and sign 8-10 portal players. That seems heavy but given the losses on defense and the offensive line, I believe that number is warranted.
Agreed. Just updating what I see… admit I had to look up who that was and didn’t like what I saw. Morris worth a look tho!
I see Connor McLaughlin the OT from Stanford is in the portal. I believe it came down to Iowa and Stanford for his commitment. Might be worth a look
Arnold has a visit to Auburn, but has just been predicted by Pete Nakos of On3 to get to Mississippi State. Don't tell me Iowa cannot outbid the other MSU.
Are you talking about your fuskers ? 4-8 might be overstating their prospects.
His number is 33, he can't be a QB.Iowa Hawkeyes Must Target Ohio State QB in Transfer Portal

/s
Absolutely not! He is not what we need.
QB Portal to look at
John Mateer, Washington State
Conner Weigman, Texas A&M
Gio Lopez, South Alabama
Anthony Colandrea, Virginia
Ole Miss QB Walker HowardAgreed, he did have a bit of an int problem his junior year, but his stats that year were solid.
Lopez or Mateer would be awesome. Iowa will probably get colandrea, god those stats are underwhelming.
Tyler names now following Hunter Zambrono OL Illinois state and Raion Strader Miami of Ohio
Barnes now following Ansel din - Mbuh DL WSU and nyziah hunter WR Cal
Doubtful given that he is following a chunk of the Texas staff, but wow that is one we need to go after
He’s following Texas staff because he went there for 2 years…I wanted him last year when he went in, now I’m not sure why he would come to Iowa.
Someone is going to be left out of the qb shuffle for top programs, I just hope Iowa lands someone who has had success or is young and wants a shot.
I am looking forward to seeing what players Lester is able to get, especially at QB, now that he is here during winter portal opening. He did a solid job bringing in B Sully and Gill from the spring portal, which doesn't have nearly the volume or quality overall compared to the winter portal. He's been here a full season and now knows exactly what he needs for his offense. Don't know who it will be, but I have a feeling that we'll be pleased.
Few more names Barnes is following
1.) Hunter Zambrano (OT) Ill St
2.) Raion Strader (CB) Miami OH
3.) Cooper Barkate (WR) Harvard
4.) Ben Perry (LB) Louisville
5.) Theran Johnson (CB) Northwestern
6.) Chasen Johnson (CB) UCF
7.) Dillon Thieneman (CB) purdue
8.) Omari Kelly (WR) Middle Tennessee

GD, this is absolutely never going to happen, but holy shit Eppy and Nwaneri combo would be INSANE

U never know . Phil Parker has a lot of success sending guys to the next level. If players are paying attention Iowa is a smart play.

Oooh is this the part where we all get super hyped over QB transfers that may come to IC and get ruined by Kirk Ferentz?
