ATH/RB Eli Sanders Obviously Chooses ISU over Iowa
- Thread starter NATEizKING
- Start date
You might be a year early. He should win the backup job after Hall goes pro. But he should still see some snaps next year.
Iowa may want to start targeting recruits in areas where they don't worry about recruits loyalty to another program, just seems they can't crack that code.
If I were KF and BF I would be hitting New Mexico, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho hard.
Sanders now has the highest composite rating of any of our 2021 commits/signees at 0.8746.
Exactly, Brock is such a good blocker which makes him the perfect back up. I wouldn't count Sanders out of being the starter in 22 though.
I won’t say that he “looked better than Jirehl”. But I wondered why Rivals didn’t bump Breece’s rating, and at the time found an article that said they didn’t think he was “fast enough” to be an elite college back, and were waiting to see another gear.
Well, I guess they’d be seen it now.
As far as the All American Bowl...it’s like they didn’t even have a scout there, because he impressed. Is that a 247 event?
Just saw on the HR board the hawks are working hard trying to flip Sanders. I would imagine this is BS but I can see them working hard to flip the narrative that they are the 2nd best option for recruits in the state.
I am surprised they haven't said they "really didn't want him" anyway yet and only offered as a back up in case the one they really wanted got hurt or something.

I never understand why some folks pay any attention to what is posted in Hawk boards. Especially HR. Hawkeye message board posters are outliers for the average Hawk fan—and HR posters are outliers even compared to their average message board nuts.
From what I’ve seen on Twitter, Sanders is already recruiting for ISU. So yes, it’s BS.
They might be trying but it doesn't matter, Sanders will sign with ISU.
Iowa offered Hinson from DM North yesterday. They are is only FBS offer and he's committing tomorrow.

I am extremely happy for the kid. Don't know the last time a North FB player signed with a D1 program and I'm sure he thought covid would hurt his chances of getting a D1 scholarhsip. But the opportunity to play at Iowa is probably a life changer for this kid.

Just don't ask about the scrambled eggs and he will probably be OK
Can we just hit pause on judging Jirehl til he gets some consistent playing time? The dude was highly rated and a badass in HS who started 6mo behind Hall, who is also a badass. I'm not expecting another Heisman level player but who here was predicting that we would have a guy as good as David (in Hall)?
