Tyler Goodson

[BigOHawk]

Obviously our focus now is wrapping up the Dec. signees and we sometimes forget about the kids who committed early. Went back and watched highlights of Tyler Goodson at RB and my goodness he is a player! He's been compared to Wadley and rightfully so IMO, looks bigger and thicker as a HS SR and just like Akrum has some crazy footwook, extremely quick cuts and isn't afraid of contact either

Safe to say if he's ok picking up a blitz or two and grasps the offense he'll be tough to keep off the field next fall. Had in excess of 30 offers and nice collection of P5, makes me wonder how he doesn't have at least 4 stars but that's being debated on other threads!

It's much easier to get the 4th star if you live in the south and stay in the south.

(There is probably zero validity to this but it sure seems true.)

 

[citizenHawk]

No doubt. Gonna be a good one--great kid as well.
Can't wait to see him in a Hawkeye uniform.

I think the depth is fine, we just currently don't have that guy who can "house it" on any given play. If TG is a little bigger version of Wadley, then he could add that to our ground and screen attack next year....

 

[Wasnt-drunk-didnt-troll]

Apparently the coaches dont feel as though the depth is where it should be. I get the vibe behind the 3 headed monster there is a hole.

 

[citizenHawk]

I think the position is still there for any of these guy's to claim. They all do some good things, but a back that can make a defender miss would be a huge boost for the offense. Iowa is a great opportunity for any running back with some quick feet and vision.

 

[marlo81]

I have to admit when I first seen Nebraska recruiting him I wasn't sure because I got caught him in the stars. I watched some of his film and was pleasantly surprised. I think this kid is very underrated and will shock the BIG in two years.

 

[HawkOn15]

I think it’s more of a Harry Geil issue and Samson Evans issues. They may not feel they are going to be good and don’t want to find the next starter in line sooner rather than later

 

[Hawk_4shur]

As the article says, he does remind me of Wadley. Good power, good speed, good shiftiness - if he can catch the ball he looks like an every down back.

 

[Kinnick.At.Night]

He gone?

 

[thecarls]

Maybe to early on Giel. Ran a little stiff and tall imo, but he was a true frosh. I think Brian’s philosophy calls for more backs in that ARob/Wegher/Wadley/Sargent mold.

A lot of guys but you know what I mean... smaller/quicker/shifty backs

 

[SB_SB]

I don't see Evans as a RB. My feeling is he'll end up as a receiver.

It really isn't meant as any slam on any one person. The Iowa offense needs big plays from the running back to be as successful as it can be. Iowa basically just didn't get that this year with the exception of Illinois and Nebraska. And those defenses were two of the worst running defenses, so that's natural.

 

[BigOHawk]

Kid from Rutgers cancels visit, is sticking with Rutgers....wow..Rutgers over Iowa but like Jacobs the early bond with Ash and staff keeps him there.

 

[yrunvs]

I suspect he will contribute somewhere. I don't know about the talent level he played against but watching his highlight film it is fairly obvious he was the best player on the field.

 

[Forgery5]

We have quality backs but there were only tiny holes to run through this year and we still run right into 8-9 man fronts. No worries in the backfield.

At least for one season anyway he will get to be coached by them before they are canned after the 2019 season.

There's a number of biases that go into this.

Team he plays for, competition level, his size/weight, and yes even his committment to Iowa factor into services grading him a step lower.

But another that's become big these days from what I've seen are all these major invite camps. Has he gotten any offers to go, or has he attended any big camps? How did he fare?

You look at Epenesa and it didn't matter that he committed to Iowa. He was an Army AA and showed at a number of camps against some highly rated recruits why he was one of the better DE recruits in the nation. It did also help that he had offers from basically a who's who of college football. The only program in this year's CFP that didn't offer him was Clemson.

 

[Eburghawk]

Nothing against the current backs but we def. need some more juice at this position. This kid fills a big need.

 

[93hawkeye]

Enjoyed his highlight reel. I always have a hard time telling how fast a HS RB is on film,

That personally smells of "you will be the starter at Rutgers son, why would you want to go all the way to Iowa and play part time"

Kid is stuck in the Ash hole.

hopefully we can bring in a mark weisman so this kid can ride the pine.

Iowa certainly poaches towards the end of the cycle, but it seems to be a crime of opportunity, (coaches left or commit is currently with MAC school). I can't think of a specific school that Iowa continually poaches from except maybe UNI.

I think a lot of it has to do with Iowa's staff being good evaluators of talent. If he misses on a top recruit then he tries to pouch from us because he thinks the all mighty Michigan brand is great. Looking forward to seeing Tyler in the Black and Gold and that he said thanks but no thanks.

Take a hike Harbaby. Go pick your nose behind the shed.

Eno had/has a lot more power and is not as fast, nor as explosive in his change of direction. I really think that Wadley is a perfect comparison for Goodson.
