    His film is incredible. Going to be a tough get.

    2027 recruiting

    It’d be interesting to see a Decision Analysis matrix today for most recruits. If I had to guess a weighted analysis looks like the following. 50% Compensation 25% Staff/NFL prep 10% locality 10% Depth chart/playing time 5% Academics

    2027 Recruiting

    Correct, but we didn’t bring Ben in to recruit the same players that Fran did. Obviously, he’s shooting for much higher caliber players, but it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t land them.

    2027 Recruiting

    Meh, disagree on the “late to the dance” narrative. These PG’s have been on the radar for a long time now. Also disagree that all of the top programs are after these guys with exception of Daughtry their offer lists we should at least be in the conversation with them. For Thompson, Outside of...

    Dang, was hoping that one wasn’t BS lol A little concerning that we couldn’t even crack the final four with him, imo. Unless we already got a silent commitment from another PG.

    Will making Elite 8 impact recruiting?

    I liked Woodbury for the most part but there’s a lot of irony in his most memorable moment was a push off for a game winner considering that most critics cited his short arms.

    I’d take that trade 10 out of 10 times.

    2027 Recruiting

    This would be in line with a rumor that someone started on another thread that looks like it got axed. Had something to do with really really good news coming but also really really bad news. if true, this is kind of creative recruiting that we have sorely lacked in Iowa athletics for sometime...

    The Iowa OL this fall

    He was behind 5 guys that will be drafted no worse than the 5th round.

    The Iowa OL this fall

    It sounded like it was a true competition, though, which is a good sign. I mean, if you get beat out by a guy who’s projected to go in either the first or second round in this year’s draft that’s not necessarily an indictment on your abilities.

    The Iowa OL this fall

    If you’ve got 2 potential AA with one being a LT, you should have a very good OL at minimum. Dotzler might be the key from going from very good to great again.

    Major Dirt coming out on Fran & Margaret (who was heckling from the crowd) related to a Coaches vs Cancer event

    Not at all surprising to hear that about Kent. Seemed like a class act on the court too.
  13. D

    Starting OL: Trevor Lauck, Leighton Jones, Kade Pieper, Lucas Allgeyer, Jack Dotzler (Mike Myslinski out)

    I don’t think he played anywhere near that weight at Iowa though. Thought he was more around 295.

    What a 10 year run for Phil Parker when it comes to giving up less than 20 points/game (no other program comes close)

    Every year it’s the same. “the defense is due to regress with what they lost…” Eventually, they might be right, but I wouldn’t be against Phil.

    4-star Iowa target Donovan Davis down to 5 schools, sets commitment date

    Stirtz is a big loss but he’s not irreplaceable imo. The only game he really carried the team in the tournament was ironically the Illinois game. There were plenty of games this season where I wasn’t seeing all the NBA glaze for him. He’s a really good player but he’s not irreplaceable imo.
