2022 Football Recruiting

ESPN reporting Iowa with the #10 recruiting class in the BigTen. How is it that bad?

 

[The Dad]

631?

I already hate the QB recruit for Purdue.

Scores for those sites are based in part on number of recruits, and Iowa isn't taking a huge number in this class.

By average recruit rating, Iowa's around 4th behind OSU/Michigan/PSU.

 

[douglasbader]

Iowa at 17 in this class, the smallest in the Ferentz era by a wide margin.

Hall would put them at #24 for Rivals.

 

[The Full Monte]

Hall would put them at #24 for Rivals.

I get the sense Hall is in the bag. This DB class is BONKERS

 

[Uff Da]

Per 247, 4th in the Big 10 in average ranking, great class and a good start to 2023

 

[CamelTones]

Indiana pulled in the #17 class according to Rivals. Michigan State and Purdue are also above Iowa but they have more 3 star recruits than Iowa does total recruits yet only 1 more 4/5 star recruit combined than Iowa does.

 

[ddevries]

That would be an extremely underwhelming offer. He is a walk-on level player, pretty lumbering. He reminded me of Ezra Miller, who simply overwhelmed smaller kids in the smaller school circuit. Save the scholarship. I get that the small schools have thrown out offers to him but he's not a P5 level athlete.

If he would get offered, I'll come back to this post in a year when he transfers to Dordt

As a fellow Dordt alum I’ll take this all day if isn’t working with the Hawks

TJ Hall picks Iowa. X in the chat...

 

[CamelTones]

What was the connection to Hall? Getting a corner from a part of the country they rarely recruit is odd.

Good question.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Fleck just specifally named dropped "Epenesas" as the type of DE they want. Kinda funny.

Has to be just tape Phil saw

 

[Shawneemicks]

Phil is the fuckin man.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

And LOL at one of the btn guys breathing an exhale sigh of relief when Fleck was done motormouthing.

Imagining a defensive backfield with Nwankpa, DeJean and Entringer at the safety/cash spots…

ESPN had Xavier unusually low compared to 247 and Rivals. And the rankings don't like weighing small classes.

Like #9.

Fuck ESPN.

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

Did we get a WR in this class?

Is it even allowed?

 

[Hawk24]

If he didn't pick the SEC, he can't be worth a shit.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

"the best ISU class of all time" against the smallest class in the Ferentz era

 

[JD720]

LOL, Iowa's class is also rated better than any team staying in or moving to the Big 12.

 

[Shawneemicks]

Iowa at 17 in this class, the smallest in the Ferentz era by a wide margin.

@Shawneemicks

I’m glad you’re here to keep me grounded Doug

That’s literally a yes

 

[cloudhawk]

Fuck.yes.

 

[Shawneemicks]

Hard

 

[bigazzturkeylegs]

Whoa

 

[cloudhawk]

I hate being so thirsty, but these peaches are making me thirsty

 

[Talkin' Goat]

 

[The Full Monte]

Of the 24 schools “ranked ahead” of Iowa after the update….Iowa has a better AVG than 7 of them. This turned out to be a really really impressive class

 

[cloudhawk]

[FrodoTBaggin]

Not. Going. To. Happen.

 

[CamelTones]

Can Don Patterson be the OC?

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

I am sickened by the WR recruiting.

Sickened.

I get that no one worth a shit would ever want to play for Iowa, but come on.

 

[Shawneemicks]

You know, if Bryce Young really wants to challenge himself he could come run the Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz offense.

That would truly be a chance to prove the doubters wrong.
