**2024/2025 Iowa Football Offseason & Transfer Portal Thread**

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

Look at that fuckin’ guy.

 

[rodg12]

That didn’t take long

Longer for you...

 

[B19Rob]

It's like Spencer Petras and Conan O'Brien had a baby

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Longer for you...

dammit

 

[BBK]

He has his phone number on his twitter page

 

[L. Wade Childress]

He has his phone number on his twitter page

Seems to be very common to include your phone number and NCAA ID these days

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

(Recruited by BriDawg KoK and/budmayr) -> arrives at Iowa under competent OC / QB coach -> moved to receiver / TE within two months -> immediately tears ACL -> in portal within week of regular season ending

 

[L. Wade Childress]

It’s always a positive when your verbal commitment lasted five times as long as your actual stay on campus.

 

[BBK]

You gonna call him?

 

[douglasbader]

Sort of a horrible experience for James. He wants to be a QB and Iowa offered him as that and why he committed to them over others, he shows up and they move him to WR anyways. He blows out his ACL a few days later.

Frankly this says more about our WR recruiting than it does our QB recruiting. We are so fucking bad in that department.

 

[26.2]

We didn't want him anyway!!

 

[Lee Beevers]

We didn't want him anyway!!

@ChipHilton is this accurate?

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

We didn't want him anyway!!

Well, Brian did

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz offered you as a quarterback, and that’s going to be stapled to every job application you ever fill out.

 

[douglasbader]

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

We just signed his brother . Kinda awkward.

this might be one of those 105 walk on casualties. Or maybe he wants to plat at a lower level.

 

[ivan_drago]

Fuck!!!! There goes a walk on fullback!

 

[ivan_drago]

Fuck, I’ve been dougied

 

[douglasbader]

Thanks IvanGus!!!!

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

Thanks IvanGus!!!!

Gusgo, IMHO.

 

[CamelTones]

Iowa has to cut down to 105. There are going to be a lot of walk ons leaving.

 

[The Full Monte]

I’ve mentioned this before, but it’s the same as the QB discussion we’ve been having. Iowa needs to raid the lower levels; there are a TON of ridiculously talented WR playing at small schools.

A number of years ago, I ended up at an FCS game, and this team had (3) guys better than anyone Iowa was starting at WR. Two of those guys are now on NFL rosters I believe.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I mean Desmond Hudson left Iowa and was decent at UNI

 

[Bob Sanders]

A young WR left Iowa and became a fairly average FCS receiver. I wonder how many offers he had to move back up to an FBS team.

 

[Brad Wesley]

I don’t have a problem offering a QB that is a great athlete but clearly not a D1 QB. Iowa has a long list of those guys that go on to be productive players. Typically those guys quickly figure out that they don’t have tbe skill set to play QB and gladly make the position change. Ree-Zar is clearly a moron and will only be able to play QB at a DIII school.

[ChipHilton]

@ChipHilton is this accurate?

Not sure. I suspect so.

I kinda wish Mason Woods were coming in as a WR, but I guess there's a good argument that he can be a bigger mismatch weapon as a TE. He can be split out a lot, anyway, I reckon.

 

[Talkin' Goat]

Saw that Iose Epenesa was born in 2007, so that’s fun. Not like we’re old or anything.

Take a dump off a high dive?

 

[Mr. Hawk]

God cares deeply about where Joey Labas plays QB next year.

 

[brantshawks]

Tim Lester, you have the chance to do the funniest thing ever:

I hope he comes back and averages 350 a game for multiple reasons.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Fuckin flaps

 

[Monster]

Of all the stupid fucking nicknames yall have created, that's the stupidest.

 

[Geese]

Joey Flapssss

 

[Monster]

You would say it that way.

I don't know if this was already posted. I looked.

"All indications are that first-team all-Big Ten center Logan Jones and team sacks leader Ethan Hurkett will return for their sixth-year senior seasons. Both have a medical-hardship option that they can use. Big Ten return specialist of the year Kaden Wetjen also has an extra year from the COVID-19 pandemic that he could use to return for a fifth season in 2025."

 

[Gushawk]

Dunker, Jones, Stephens back gives some hope of a functional line. Who’s gonna be the LT?

None of these guys should get any money to come back.

This is like the young man's version of the wealth/retirement thread. Jesus, move on, guys.

I'd give Hurkett a $50 Pancheros gift card.
