2022 Football Recruiting

[douglasbader]

Hutson gone. Who do we get now?

I mean, part of it might have to do with Charlie Jones saying he might be back next year a couple days ago.

Jones is coming back and Johnson and Bruce are clearly the future at WR. If you're a sophomore that's buried on the depth chart, not hard to imagine why you'd look elsewhere.

While I agree it’s going to be a loss in the togetherness of the team.

Correct, and add in Rigatoni to that (and Tracy if he stays) and there you go.

 

[douglasbader]

Don't forget Jackson Ritter!!

 

[Shawneemicks]

prolly your mom, Clete

[The Full Monte]

Fuck. Sorry Doug. But I can’t let that go

 

[neshawk]

Maybe Max Cooper could come back for his seventh year

 

[CleteyColgate]

*Clitty

Clitty is on vacation

 

[fossilhawk]

yea and maybe you can gfy

 

[Shawneemicks]

Maybe?

 

[CamelTones]

He looks like a college junior.

 

[The Full Monte]

Holy shit!!!!

[Shawneemicks]

Can he start Friday?

 

[chaneccooms]

Another nice walk-on get on the defensive line.

 

[chaneccooms]

I think it’s a good sign for the program that they’re getting kids to walk on who as recently as 2019 would have been getting offers.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Hutson gone. Who do we get now?

Here's our white walkon who we'll bitch about getting reps over a 2024 scholarship guy

 

[HerkyHopeful]

My dad played football in high school with his dad. Grown man genes/jeans. #ncsb

 

[MikeyJoe]

Blair Sanderson RTd this which I assume means Iowa is looking at him.

 

[chaneccooms]

This twitter account automatically posts the accounts the Iowa assistants and Tyler Barnes start and stop following. It's a pretty good indicator of what's going on in recruiting.

According to posts on TOS, the head Notre Dame 247 guy thinks Nwankpa will be a Hawkeye and the head 247 recruiting guy says there is “lots of buzz surrounding Iowa.”

his Momma called him Hawkeye, Ima call him Hawkeye.

Looks like he is officially rubbing Nwankpa's balls for iowa

 

[Shawneemicks]

Shawnee was ready to rage! if Kirk & Phil didn’t seal the deal with him.

Still do. Used to too.

LB recruiting: Recent offer Wade Woodaz from Tampa Jesuit committed to Clemson.

The staff is taking a look at Illinois ILB James Kreutz, son of former Bears center Olin Kreutz. James’ older brother plays at Illinois and the younger Kreutz has a visit scheduled there on December 10, but it doesn’t appear the Illini have offered yet.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Icy Hot Woodaz

 

[The Full Monte]

Ouch. LB recruiting this year has been bizarre

 

[Saul Berkley]

Ouch. LB recruiting this year has been bizarre

Honestly, I'm not sure they need another LB in this class. They have four current freshmen at LB and one committed in this class.

 

[chaneccooms]

I think Montgomery moves to fullback. I don't think he has the open space quickness and range to play linebacker in the modern game.

But I think you're right that LB isn't a huge priority in this class with the big LB class in the last cycle.

 

[chaneccooms]

Carter Erickson from Indianola just committed to be the next Derek Pagel/Sean Considine/Brett Greenwood/Jake Gervase/Jack Koerner.

 

[MikeyJoe]

@chaneccooms I barely follow recruiting so I'm sure this has been talked about already, but I just looked and was surprised to see Iowa only has 11 commits for 2022 at this point. Was this expected to be a super small class, or have they just whiffed a ton?

 

[Talkin' Goat]

Both. Should finish fairly strong though if Nwankpa and a few others ultimately sign.

It was always going to be a smaller class, possibly the smallest of the Ferentz era, but as others point out they whiffed on a number of guys this summer. They can/should finish strong in the next 2 weeks.

Kinda lazy to say that considering the transfers that have happened and will happen. Iowa needs numbers

Iowa had 16 senior day guys, including 2-3 who may come back for another year. Not all 16 are scholarship. So while they have had a few transfer, they will probably add a transfer or two and still finish with their smallest high school recruiting class under ferentz. That also is ignoring walk-ons who might earn scholarships....guys like Quinn schulte, Tanner pallissard, etc

Yeah, Doug is wrong per always. Total will be 20-21.

This.

 

[CamelTones]

Scholarship or walk on?

 

[Brownzy]

Walk on. Had offers from FCS schools. Nice get.

 

[CleteyColgate]

Maybe not for long. He's rated higher than some current commits. My guess is that Iowa will see how the rest of the class fills up and then see about a scholarship for Dom

Dominic Wiseman - 2022 2 Star Defensive tackle for North (Davenport, IA) on Rivals.com

[chaneccooms]

Wiseman, Hubert and Gaffney is a really good group of walk-ons on the defensive line. All had at least an FCS offer and Hubert had multiple FBS offers.

 

[Trey Kohn]

He is a good get for a walk-on.

 

[SteadyEddy]

What percentage of guys who have FCS - UNI/Dakota school scholarships that walk on end up getting significant playing time at Iowa?

I would say it's high.

 

[Shawneemicks]

NS

 

[CleteyColgate]

NS

No shit

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Hopefully the Kelly news firmly kicks Notre Dame out of the running for Nwankpa. It would be nice if the media started throwing around Ryan day's name with the openings
