On paper, this is a ridiculous first week of transfer portal season for Iowa. They pick up maybe the best Safety in the portal, one of the best WR's, one of the best edge rushers, a couple solid defensive linemen, a starter level safety/cash player, and solid kicker and on the verge of possibly one of the better RB's.

Need another WR and a Punter, but this is great.

They must be happy with the young LBs, I thought they'd go harder after a portal LB. They had offered Ebel, but LeVar Woods had the relationship there. But haven't heard much on other portal guys at the position

Jeremiah Cooper would be welcome. I’ve seen nothing about places he’s considering. I know there was early talk of Iowa likely getting someone from ISU at a position of need…but that was kakert and it was two weeks ago!!!

And the smoke was regarding a tight end.

Just grab a FCS QB with some wheels for cheap. I don't care if he can throw

Being able to throw just a little bit would be fine too. Tim L. really started feeling his oats as a play caller when Gronowski remembered how to complete the basic forward pass.

Buffington isn’t the answer.

I wonder if the Big Ten is beginning to wait with their schedule announcement until after seeing how schools perform in the CFP. Like now that it’s gone this way, I wonder if they’ll backload Indiana’s schedule to keep them in the top 5 the first half of the season.

It's obvious and they have outright said they are not going for a QB in the portal. They like the experience at the position now. On one hand I'm curious to see how much having a year in the system, with full spring participation, would potentially mitigate any pure talent deficiencies.

Lulz- I mean his 6 tackles were impressive. Not playing over other less than stellar LB options isnt exactly Chad Greenway- #1 experienced LB vibes but I've already said I am probably wrong over time. They seem impressed with his bowl prep according to the beat writers- so much so- that he didn't play at all. Do they still have the game max they can play in?

[edit]Fuck you AZ......
