Dane Belton not making enough game affecting plays for you?
If my hazy memory serves, the Micah Hyde to corner experiment didn’t yield great results?

Not that Xavier couldn’t play corner, but I think he’s best served as a safety.

You've got it backwards.

Micah Hyde was primarily a CB that we tried at safety but moved back because Greg Castillo was fucking awful.

This was the epic fight between Colin Sleeper(FS) and Greg Castillo(CB) if my memory is correct. Oof, there were some depth issues back then.

Hyde would have been all-Big Ten level at any of the 4 secondary spots as evidenced by his 9 year NFL career as a safety/slot defender.

Yeah, cause next season we started whatever the fuck a Tom Donatell is at FS.

TJ Hall apparently NOT an official visitor when he’s in IC this weekend. If the kid is paying his own way, I think that bodes very very well for Iowa. He’s apparently gotten close with X.

I would be surprised if he isn’t committed by next Monday

he took his OV for the Penn State game …. So yeah coming back a 2nd time from CA to IA in December on his own dime bodes well.

I can only come up with 2 instances under Kirk where there wasn’t at least 1 white safety. 2015 with Lomax and Taylor and 2005-2006 with Paschal and Merrick. I guess Hooker and Stone started together before they moved Hooker to cash and Merriweather started with Stone in 2019 before getting injured before the 2nd game.

I don’t believe Sanders and Shane Hall ever started together.

Ryan Hansen
Derek Pagel
Sean Considine
Devan Moylan
Tyler Sash
Brett Greenwood
Tanner Miller
John Lowdermilk
Brandon Snyder
Jake Gervase
Jack Koerner

I love seeing Ryan Hansen on that list. What a great dude. I'm not sure I've ever witnessed someone give more to something that he wasn't terribly suited to than Ryan gave to football. It says a lot about his overall ability as a human that football was like the fifteenth best thing he was good at, and he started in the Big Ten.

There are so many either already good or really highly ranked 1-2 year ago QB’s in the portal right now. I’m going to mutter a curse word or two if we aren’t in on one of them
Narrator: not a chance.

There's various levels of ball rubbing for Trader, Hall, Entringer, Allen, and Crawford to Iowa between rivals and 247

I have no idea who Allen is but I’m guessing he’s a good to must get.

I can't recall much about TJ Hall. Were we active with him before he committed to Washington?
