Any expected issues here or just waiting to sign for a ceremony or something?Beau Stephens is the only commit that hasn't signed yet.

His tweet says February. It does not appear that he has talked to any media members since he decommitted.What's the word on Myslinski...February signing date?
Lots of MSU crystal balls, FWIWWhat's the word on Myslinski...February signing date?
Just signed with ISUWe also apparently offered Miles Purchase a DB from Colorado @chaneccooms mentioned a few days back. Committed to ISU but does not appear to have signed yet.
Should have stuck with Texas if true
Wisconsin
Guesses?
Lovie Smith.
Guesses?
Why do you think Allen and Fitzgerald are in the "probably not" camp? I don't follow much outside of Iowa stuff, but I have thought both of those guys are more respectable men. Personal rivalry with Iowa aside, I can see Fitzgerald wanting to recruit in a "clean" manner. Am I way off-base?There's obvious answers for who it's not - Fleck, Frost, Locksley
Very likely not - Harbaugh, James Franklin,
Probably not - Allen, Fitzgerald
So that leaves - Chryst, Lovie, Day, Brohm, Tucker, and Schiano. Chryst, Lovie, Brohm and Tucker likely recruit the same players most often. One of those four.
Because they both hate Iowa. And while that doesn't mean they would use it to recruit against Iowa, it also doesn't mean they wouldn't either.Why do you think Allen and Fitzgerald are in the "probably not" camp?

Blair made it sound like Iowa never actually offered. Could be because he didn’t seem interested. Moot point anyway.Just signed with ISU
I definitely think there's something to this. I'll list a few factors I think are in play....I feel like Iowa hates more staffs now than they ever have before, but maybe we’re just hearing more.
I honestly don't think it mattered.The talent in the state of Iowa has never been deeper.

(Campbell picked a bad year to have shitty in-state recruiting.)
I agree with much of that. The last part of kids that grow up ISU fans has been the disappointment. Still a lot more hawk fans around, but it's not near as lopsided as when we were growing up. Was hoping for more kids like Lazard or Downing to start popping up.I honestly don't think it mattered.
The only time you see a traditionally lesser school take a step forward with in-state recruiting is usually when the program is not only more successful on the field than they have been in a long time, but also needs the more dominant team to have severely stumbled.
You saw it play out in Michigan where Michigan State took a huge leap forward due to record on field success and record futility by Michigan.
Iowa State could have 3 straight 10 win seasons and they aren't really going to see an uptick in the State of Iowa in competing with Iowa unless they get a rare crop of players that are legacy or life long Iowa State fans or Iowa has instability and sucks.
A senior has only seen ISU win 3 times since they were in Kindergarten.I agree with much of that. The last part of kids that grow up ISU fans has been the disappointment.

Why?There’s not a lot of love lost between the Iowa and Indiana coaching staffs.
I blame Kevin Hardy.Why?
Pretty sure Indiana has been telling recruits Kirk is going to retire soon for a couple years now because they’re upset Iowa has gone into Indianapolis and had success. Though some of those guys have since transferred.Why?
Unless I completely have the wrong guy and there was another Harrell, Harrell's bio dad Jonathan was a good player at UNI. All-Gateway linebacker in 2002-3 area. Don't know that he's been involved in Jaden's life.How about Jaden Harrell's dad? Looks like haloman. Maybe adopted?
Rondale Moore likely gone and bell will be after next year. If he's smart he cuts his losses and leaves nowBrohm should've dipped to Louisville when he had the chance.
Real nice story about Regina's Alec Wick, and his path to joining the Hawkeyes.
whoPretty sure the good corner from UNI is coming to Iowa
