Receiver Poll

[ButtersHawk]

What ya'll think?

 

[NevadaHawk]

I've heard Gill has flashed in camp and has a lot of upside.

 

[bumpstock]

Other/Write In: Terrell Washington, Jr.

 

[desihawk]

Jarriet Buie has a name with elite receiver written all over it. so he’s my pick.

 

[MeetTheFerentzes]

Gill was easy choice:
1) Not poisoned by previous OC & WR coach
2) Sully is familiar with him, and he has I'd say a 40% or so chance of being the main QB this season

 

[Istvan Teleky]

Other/Write In: Terrell Washington, Jr.

My write-in as well

 

[eyesofhawk]

Run the ball

 

[2D_]

Kaleb Brown has already shown great potential, even in Brian's garbage scheme. He'll be the top target.

 

[Hawkman57]

Kaleb Brown is the next Charlie Jones. Hopefully Lester is smart enough to use him. Just give him ball. Screens, jet sweeps, whatever. He'll get plenty of separation on crossing routes as well.

Jones not being utilized whatsoever despite the fact that he was so CLEARLY the best offensive weapon on the roster was Brian's greatest **** up - IMO.

 

[thunderstruck1]

Whoever can get open and hold on to the ball.

What’s the upside?


Too soon?

 

[markfromj]

None. A TE will lead.

 

[BurgHawk87]

Run the ball

None. A TE will lead.

Reading comprehension not a strong suit?

 

[eyesofhawk]

Just offered my thoughts on the matter.

What are yours?

 

[BigOHawk]

Vander Zee in line for PT, has really surprised in camp and given his size and vert he and Buie are in the lead for the X role.

 

[squeezebox]

I'd say it depends on the QB starter. If it's Sullivan, most likely Gill. If it's Cade I'll go wetjen/washington

 

[NevadaHawk]

What’s the upside?


Too soon?

Experience playing in the B1G, good hands, and a good downfield blocker. Also, he is has played with Sully.

 

[BonzoFury]

I'd say it depends on the QB starter. If it's Sullivan, most likely Gill. If it's Cade I'll go wetjen/washington

You think they will shift wide receiver minutes based on who’s playing quarterback?

 

[squeezebox]

Potentially, I bet Sullivan has comfort in gill, a bit like laporta and Petras

 

[BurgHawk87]

Just offered my thoughts on the matter.

What are yours?

I'll actually answer the question. My pick is Gill/Buie depending on who gets more PT.

An insider told me the same thing.

 

[ddeanHawk]

Run the ball

On every play? Yeah sure that'll work lovely, just lovely

 

[ottumwan in tx]

Willie guy

 

[DanHawkPella]

An insider told me the same thing.

He was running surprisingly high in the 2nd team rotations in the kids day scrimmage, and you could tell they like him in the red zone in particular. He has a big catch radius, is tall and has a 40" vertical or just short of that. Thought he may need to add strength but apparently he's faster and more agile than one might think so to not come in early in the spring and be getting reps that high so soon says A LOT. A LOT.

Wouldn't lead us in catches but clearly could end up with 20+ based on his arc so far if he can beat out one of the 3 lead guys for time.

Brown news has been very little so far and Gill has gotten a lot of consistent buzz. I think anyone playing the slot could lead in receptions though, but may not lead in yards.

Run the ball

With 8 in the box... worked so well last year.

I doubt I'm that lucky

Run the ball

 

[mvhomerl]

Run the ball

3 runs, 3 yards, punt, but punting is winning. Until you play a good team 92-0.

Run it

 

[SDHawkDoc]

I don't care who it is, but it would be nice to see a wr get at least into the 40s for number of receptions on the season. That's a really low bar, but they haven't had any wr get to 40 catches on the year since 2019.

 

[eyesofhawk]

3 runs, 3 yards, punt, but punting is winning. Until you play a good team 92-0.

Iowa played many good teams last season

 

[eyesofhawk]

3 runs, 3 yards, punt, but punting is winning. Until you play a good team 92-0.

You mean 0-3

 

[eyesofhawk]

3 runs, 3 yards, punt, but punting is winning. Until you play a good team 92-0.

God, I would kill for Iowa to actually run it 3 times in a row

 

[eyesofhawk]

3 runs, 3 yards, punt, but punting is winning. Until you play a good team 92-0.

Of course a good punting games wins. The sport is called "foot"ball

 

[eyesofhawk]

3 runs, 3 yards, punt, but punting is winning. Until you play a good team 92-0.

Anyone minimizing the success of a program that's won for near the entirety of 25 years is a joke

 

[mvhomerl]

Iowa played many good teams last season

Played 3 good teams 92-0. Barely beat sub.500 teams, best B1G win NW 8-5. Oh and that was close.

Iowa beat 4 bowl teams last year. I guess our definitions of "good" don't align. By the way 3 of those games were on the road (if you count Wrigley as a road game).

So you exaggerate Iowa's losses and minimize their wins. You're a real piece of work.

Iowa did not go 216-207 last season. Cool story bro
