2021 Football Recruiting

[thrawn]

An lot of good Iowa teams didn't have more than 3 scholarship QBs at a time, however.

name 3

 

[ChipHilton]

name 3

Yeah, I realized after I wrote the words that I can't, because of forgetting invisible guys like John Weinke and Cy Phillips. Even though there were guys like those who wouldn't have played in a million years as true freshmen, they were there. I got hung up on realistic candidates.

1984 had Long, Vlasic and true freshman Hartlieb
2009 had Rick, Vandy and Weinke
2015 was my 3rd, but I forgot about Drew Cook (They were on some thin ice that year)
The aforementioned Mr. Phillips thwarted me in the '04 reckoning.

2014 had just Jake, CJ and Wiegers, but that wasn't a good team.
2011 had 3 the latter part of the season, counting Weinke. Again, not a good team.

I am, I confess, a failure.

Still not keen on taking a QB just to take one. Connor Kapisak was a good looking walk-on, so he would probably be better as a #4 than most of the freshmen we'd probably be looking at at this point. If all 4 get hurt, they'd have to dust off Quinn Schulte and throw him back there, Joe Evans having probably outgrown the position.

Are you talking about Maro? He’s not committed to them. I also like that all the Iowa guys that are committed to them’s profile pic on Rivals are them wearing Iowa stuff.

This might be my first and ever insider perspective. We are great friends with Maro’s. I think he goes Ivy League for football. He is a smart kid and academics are huge to the family. Who knows... i know they really liked the Louisville/Gophers coaches. So while they may be a smart family, common sense seems to be lacking

 

[ChipHilton]

That shit ain't gettin' me. #1, I have "phenomenal" lungs and #2, I'll take care of it myself with a few servings of fish tank cleaner or Lysol.

I don’t think you know how Apnea works

 

[ChipHilton]

I don’t think you know how Apnea works

Only vaguely, actually. I just morphed into a stupid Corona connected joke (Mr. Odd Sense of Humor). I'll restrain myself next time.

 

[CamelTones]

So no Keagon Johnson this weekend?

 

[KitKatApples]

Yea what the fuck

 

[CurdMan]

So no Keagon Johnson this weekend?

Said he’s still thinking things through but expects to make a decision soon

 

[HerkyHopeful]

This is the guy Nebrantska offered without seeing throw.

This is not as exciting after seeing the QBs Iowa was in on earlier with this class, but he's at least got a couple power 5 offers, besides Nebrantska

 

[Bob Sanders]

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Sounds like Kirk. Really pressuring kids to commit

 

[HerkyHopeful]

BTW I'm not cliff collins

 

[KitKatApples]

I thought this fucker was ours over the weekend

 

[Grape Ape]

That Jimmie Dimmick is full of shit, man.

 

[KitKatApples]

Easy

 

[Jimmie Dimmick]

That Jimmie Dimmick is full of shit, man.

hey now

my info was solid. kid changed his mind. I think he’s really struggling.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

That seems not awesome

 

[FranklinHawk]

hey now

He should settle with choosing the school who trains their QB to primarily throw the ball to guys on their own team.

 

[KitKatApples]

Yea I’m not liking his second thoughts

 

[Jimmie Dimmick]

Yea I’m not liking his second thoughts

I would agree.

 

[MikeyJoe]

Sounds like @jimmie is a LIAR and a SCUMBAG.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Dimmick's probably the reason Keagan is having second thoughts. Asshole

 

[KitKatApples]

I feel like this kid wants to go to Nebrantska but doesn't want to play for Frost.

 

[Bob Sanders]

I thought this fucker was ours over the weekend

Based on what I'm seeing on TOS and elsewhere, I see no reason to be overly pessimistic. Nebrantska writers were calling Heinrich to Nebrantska well before he committed there, and I see none of that with Johnson. It's not 100%, but nothing is.

 

[CamelTones]

Lol, is having second thoughts but will announce his decision tomorrow. He has 8 more months but feels like making a call tomorrow.

Sometimes the kids just wants to get off the crazy train and have that pressure behind them.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Crazy is an excellent synonym for Nebrantska

 

[cloudhawk]

All things being equal- prob Iowa- these last few days are an opportunity for Nebrantska to make things unequal. Probably $$ for every one in the loss column difference

 

[Wanderer]

Another Johnson crystal ball switching from Nebrantska to Iowa FWIW.

 

[cloudhawk]

Fidone?

 

[hawkeyealum]

I feel like whichever way he goes Wednesday there is a potential to flip to the other by signing day.

granted that can be said for lots of recruits

I think the numbers of guys flipping since the early signing period is way way down. Rarely happens compared to a few years ago when guys were flipping all the time. The early signing period along with moving official visits up has really helped.

But that’s still not until December right? Long ways to go for a kid struggling with his decision

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

The eagle has landed.

 

[Talkin' Goat]

Still all good for the Hawks apparently.

 

[hawkeyealum]

How fast is he? I want more WR in the ISM mold

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Johnson isn’t having second thoughts. He’s committed.

 

[mac50702]

Aww fuck. L. Wade jinx just put this kid at ISU.

 

[ChipHilton]

I believe 11.2 as a soph. Coach thinks he's faster than that. Notre Dame allegedly told the coach they'd be interested if he could get it down to 10.9. (Ihmir ran 10.6+ as a senior, IIRC.)

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Aww fuck. L. Wade jinx just put this kid at ISU.

math checks out

 

[Jimmie Dimmick]

kid will be a hawk and will be all over Fidone until he decides

 

[Jimmie Dimmick]

All of Brecht’s Iowa visits were with Fidone

 

[KitKatApples]

I don't even know how good these kids actually are, I just enjoy a good Nebrantska melt down

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Stay away from them Jimmie. We don't need you jinxing again

 

[cloudhawk]

Of course.gif

 

[RecreationalGynecologist]

I’d take Bell too. Can never have enough weapons and speed
