Not saying your wrong but just curious why you so sure he wouldn't come to iowa
April 1 Portal targets
- Thread starter UndercoverHawk
- Start date
Total conjecture on my part from what I've heard about him and from our program's reputation. I don't think it's something he'd be interested in.
They could always try to get Stiles to stay at 149 another year, but I could also see him and Cannon both bumping two weights which would open up 157.
Are all of the PSU which don’t hit the portal stupid ….. or is it you??
Well considering that YOU are a VERY stupid person, and F*** st is a LowLyingSwampSHEeetHole!!!! Why would anyone WASTE their eligibility even if it is for a lot of FatMoneyMans DOUGH!!!!!
"I can MAKE more $$$$$, I can NOT make more time!!!!"
Willie, do you have any idea what school(s) Meyer is looking at?
And when do you anticipate we started hearing of some finalized deals with portal guys.
The forum experience for me became much better when I put Iron Hawk on ignore.
So everyone’s just going to Nebraska I guess. #builtnotbought
He was getting pennies at Cornell. Apparently they're willing to shirt Trelli.
That is completely uncalled for. He is a kid who has struggles but i bet he has accomplished more than you and your 8-5 and what every ******** lie you come up with your past. Who did you wrestle for again?
Not uncalled for. Him jumping in the portal despite his struggles and what Grey/Cornell have done for him is completely ungrateful. I would absolutely say it to his face as well for the decision he's making.
Hope he gets it together though.
LOL. Not.
It's what I was told yesterday. Didn't make sense to me then, doesn't make sense to me now, but that's what I was told.
Like Corby has tried to tell you guys, information changes. I like sharing what i'm allowed to with the board.
Except Yianni was NEVER coming to Iowa. I know this for a fact. He was never even offered the spot. Yes, things change but not in this case.
Pay an established portal guy to come in and redshirt. Great plan.
And then watch them wave bye-bye the following year. College sports are awesome!
Sure, but all you needed to do was take a minute to ask yourself, does this make sense, does he have a redshirt? Instead you choose to just get it out as quick as you can and then say "things change" when it is inevitably BS. Trust but verify.
Eh. it happens. Now that I think about it - it's very possible I misheard the redshirting part, and that Meyer would redshirt.
Which... is a TURRIBLE IDEA. The kid barely likes the sport week to week, now you're going to give him a year off? No freaking way would I risk that.
I’m quite enjoying this new era of information.
They’re all going to Nebraska
Meyer himself fells like he could use a redshirt. i'm not saying that it's out of the question that he starts this year, but that's what i'm told.
As for Nebraska, they are in play for VRob and Meyer, have a rather big question at 49 and a bona fide hole at 184.

Appreciate the insight. What about other high end portal entries? Zepeda, Crookham, Fuggitt, Carter Schubert, and maybe others?
Zepeda i really don't have a read on. Moses Mendoza (FR at MICH) is his brother, so they make a bunch of sense. i'm not sure how i feel about Zepeda at Iowa. that's a four-year guy right in the same wheelhouse as a ton of your top commits. could he be the best guy? absolutely. would you see some of your commits open up? you could probably guarantee that.
Crookham - no idea. love crookham (he's from right here in my back yard) so i'd love to see him w/ the Hawks, but they are tight lipped. i don't have any info.
Fugitt - set on going 141. visited tOSU last week. rumor is he's likely to go there or Mizzou.

Me thinks this board is making the recruitment of the contemporary athlete to complicated. Shake hands and simply; "hey what's your number" ($). No need to spend hours, days, weeks on vists, entertainment, and chasing rumors. It's 2026, not 1985, see NCAA v Alston.
Yeah, I was hoping he’d be 157 for 2 years and big enough for 165; but it seems like he will be a 149 for most of his collegiate career and I would hate to lose any of our 27 class.
I kept hearing Fugitt is going to tOSU, but at the time I didn’t know if there was any truth to that.
Thanks for the clarification and insight Willie!
