I would add Honas to that. Hopefully he doesn’t drink the Nebraska Kool-Aid and will realize what school will actually develop him.
 
Pretty much what you guys already said but

Stepp
Honas
Craddieth
Petras or Wilson
Lockett
Stoops

Wish I knew if Wiegers and or Boyle were transferring so I knew the QB situation to make up my mind, but oh well

Are we predicting or hoping?

Realistic is your list minus craddith and petras, add some 81-84 3 star QB, add Honus.

Hope is your list plus Honus.
 
According to Tom Kakert in the latest Hawkeye Report Podcast, we are in decent shape with Craddieth and he may actually be looking to sign in the early period. He has friends at Debby.

Stepp has an official visit at USC this wknd. If he leaves without committing we are in good position. Kakert reports an official visit scheduled for Stepp at Iowa in late January.

Petras likely to stick with OSU although they are bringing in a new QB this class.

Kakert also says he believes its only a matter of time before stoops commits here.
 
Well that’s one down-don’t don’t realize his early offer list-obviously some no longer stand but that’s a lot of solid offers
 
I want the BIG rb that will add even more story lines and interest from the state of Indiana!
I want a St Louis area kid, especially a stud like Craddieth!
I want a QB, either one, don't care as long as Duggan comes the following year!
A stud JUCO LB aka Honus!

With Lockett on board, I'd stop there if it were up to me. I feel very confident that he, Tracy, ISM and B. Smith are going to be one of the best group of receivers Iowa's had. I think Stoops is worth an offer just not a necessary one now. I'd consider an interior linemen, linebacker or any punter related to Reggie Roby!

I think they land Honas. The rest I am not sure about. I would say they have a better chance of landing Wilson than Petras right now. And I think Craddieth doesn't know what he wants. Stepp is a kid I think Iowa has a great chance of landing because of Bell and the Indiana kids.
 
Watched Stepp's video this morning. *If healthy, he is an animal. I'm pumped for K. BRYAN and Stepps looks like a bigger, stronger, faster k.bryan.
 
BTW- if we get my list +Honas we would be ranked 6th in Big Ten with only 19-20 recruits and would be ranked 4th or 5th in average of recruit....that is pretty damn solid IMO. I also believe Terry Roberts- who is one of our lowest rated recruits is a big "sleeper" of this class....undersized but the dude can play- PP knows what he is looking for
