2027 Football Recruiting

[KitKatApples]

Fuckin A right

 

[Stomper15]

What a weird recruitment.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

I'm wondering if some of his offers were not committable offers.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Committing to Minnesota with the other offers is pretty telling as to why Iowa never offered.

That and him being part of the whole Regina thing.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Iowa found three LBs in this class from the state of Iowa they liked better. All we need to know

Who to trust, Phil Parker or PJ Fleck? Hmmmm

 

[BVHawk95]

What's the whole Regina thing? Does KF hate them now that Marv isn't there?

What's the whole Regina thing?

Closet homosexuals. Do a lot of a cocaine.

There is no ‘Regina thing’. The head coach and his brother are close to the Hawks.
Iowa was loaded at linebacker. These days when making a decision, it’s about the paycheck as much as the program.
Iowa is betting on guys from Winfield and Williamsburg Iowa instead. Hope they’re right.

Has Iowa offered the RB?

Iowa takes multiple guys every year from an IC West team who gets crushed whenever they play anyone from the CIML, but no room for Regina kids with 10+ D1 offers?

He’s got a Miami and Minnesota offer.
Iowa has had Regina kids in big roles before.

To be fair, kids from even more podunk Iowa towns have been some of their best players on defense in recent years.

[Fritz Fequiere]

Seems like Kirk aways turns out looking like he was right in these situations. Can’t come up with a counter example off the top of my head.

There are guys he simply didn't get like OL Alt or the TE Raridon, but guys they pass up usually are shit. The DE who went to Wisconsin and flamed out and ended up at Cal is the most recent one.

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

Andrew Depaepe

 

[douglasbader]

Andrew Depaepe

I forgot about him. Pleasant Valley grad, went to Michigan State and then transferred to Indiana and did nothing. Now ending his career at UMASS.

Kirk won.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Ol Tyler Maro is another recent one.

the way it works is if schools start hearing a big white kid in Iowa with several offers is probably not going to get an Iowa offer they start offering in droves, usually leading to an inflated rating.

It was happening with Severson in ‘28 but he was so young Iowa just hadn’t scouted him at TE yet and wound up offering.

 

[CamelTones]

A little different situation but TJ Bollers was another one. Iowa was also really late to the party on Oliver Martin and despite him playing 1 year at Iowa they were not exactly wrong on that one either.

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

WR is the only position where I really don’t trust them on evals.

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

Didn’t seem like they cared too much about Grant Brix either so even though they offered him I’m sure he’ll suck at Nebrantska.

Yeah, he was the one I was referring to.

Here’s a couple more:

Hunter Deyo a four star who went to ISU before transferring to mac and never playing

Jake Heinrich - #1 ranked recruit in state in 2016 who went to Arkansas for two years before giving up football

 

[Geese]

I would have quit football as well if I was at Arkansas those years

Assume the 4-star OL from Grinnell is the next one. I know he's an Iowa State "legacy" but especially at OL, Iowa offers, you tell your dad to GFH.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Apparently he tried to commit to Iowa a month ago and they weren't willing to accept it b/c they are probably going to fill their class with the two guys visiting in June.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Did Oliver Martin ever come out? That kid seemed gayer than aids.

his sister was too good to swim at iowa then changed her mind and switched from florida to iowa. his little brother is at newton now. the family are flippers

I didn't realize Finn was his brother. Excellent WR, 4A first team all state. But is multi time state champ in swimming and committed to Notre Dame for swimming.

Probably why they're so good at swimming.

the dad was a college swimmer, so I assume the kids are adopted?

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

That is the name of a leader right there
