Any word about our last weekend visitors? They had to have appreciated the BB game atmosphere.
I agree with the walk-on comment. I believe Arceo earned one last season and IMO he will be a star for us this season.

You may be right....but, thats like saying during the down years that Norte Dame wasn't still getting 4-5* kids because its norte dame...and i agree their recruiting this year is brutal...not sure why, but, its the worst its been in years. It used to be that if Miami offered you went, unless you were a FSU or Fla commit. But things are a changing for sure. But....
FYI last years recruiting class ended up being 33 players with more 5* and 4* then Iowa State has had in its history. Lets also look at the obvious, the kid is from Florida, and although you make a compelling argument with the whole big 12, packed houses and all...and i would agree i'm so stoked that we're filling our stadium, miami had a down year and averaged 7k less then us....Lets not forget, miami was on sanctions and that always leaves a bad taste in peoples mouths....they were 7-5, 2 of their 5 losses came against top 5 teams, and all 5 losses were to bowl eligible teams.
Not bashing, love me some ISU, but, if we start winning recruiting battles with the likes of Oklahoma (oops we already did) and especially Miami, i will assure you that our talent level will greatly increase....i mean seriously in their last recruiting class they had a total of 20 players ranked at their positions by rivals....we currently sit for 2013 with 2.
Hope we get him, i love athletic DE's never ever have too many....get a rotation that can keep everyone fresher is how you compete in the brutal conference schedules.
Good Luck CPR, go get him!!!!

Heck I love ISU with all my heart but had I had an offer from Miami I would have been there without even thinking about it.

Obviously a different Miami though. That was a dominant, #1 team for years playing in a national spotlight. Now they are just an average team in an average conference that is lucky to draw 20k fans for a game.

Convincing a kid from Florida to choose you over a soon to be irrelevant Big East school is one thing. Also, getting a kid to flip that was about 20 miles away is also not something that seems that out of the ordinary. Oh, and nice" and we may get other kids to flip" comment. How insightful. Stick to burger flipping, ingrate.

Re: Where do we go with our last 3-4 Schollies?
First of all thanks for putting this list together - rep for that. I like our chances with Madison from his visit comments later in this thread. Since we are among the worst programs at getting to the QB I would like to see us get an aggressive DE who with Coe can help us get some sacks.

I'm not familiar with Tech's QB situation but that could be an option. I know Doege is gone. Don't know who they have in the wings.
