Wyoming is very good and their QB is the best we will face all year, and easily the toughest non conference game on our schedule. Iowa almost always loses 1 non conference game and to me this is the most likely one this year. Hopefully they round into shape fast and are ready to go game 1.

Not sure what that means.
Are you saying Campbell would not have accepted a verbal from him?
ISU offers guys that they don't want?
I find that hard to believe since Campbell pulled a scholly of a kid that committed early in the process last year. Why wouldnt he just do the same?
Typical "did not want him anyway" response from ISU fan when they lose a recruit to a MAC school.
Well why would CMC and staff hand out hundreds of early offers if they arent committable?
He literally pulled a scholly from a commit last year, what is stopping him from accepting Todd's verbal and then pulling it if something better comes along?
Yeah, EVERY team tosses out offers. I mean, I'm sure that iowa has out 5-6 QB offers. Do the idiots here really believe that they would take a commitment from their 6th rated kid right now? No. They wouldn't. If ISU really wants Todd, they'll try to flip him later on. Obviously, they have other guys they would rather have right now. That's how recruiting works. If you really believe that ISU got beat by a MAC school for an in-state OL, well, you're trying too hard to bag on ISU. It's just not reality.
Maybe because you only have 20-25 scholarships to fill? Would iowa take a commit from every player they offer? No. They have a board just like everyone else with ratings. They slow play some kids, get beat out on others. Some are automatic takes while some are wait and see how they do in the fall.
As far as pulling a scholarship, schools pull scholarships all the time. When a guy commits in summer and then has a bad SR year, that's bound to happen. You do have to be a little more careful with in-state guys, because pulling scholarships there can result in bad local press. It is what it is.
When I think of slow playing, I think of holding off on offering until late in the process. Not handing out several hundred offers and then not allowing kids to commit.
It's pretty clear Campbell and his staff know what they're doing on the recruiting trail
Yeah, with their 53rd rated recruiting class!! #trusttheprocess #stormsbrewing #cmclookslikeahorse
Lot of ignorance in this thread.

100+ on that list. Most have offers. Most of those offers are probably contingent on something, aka Iowa not getting their top target, them actually developing their SR year, etc. I'm not even certain that is a comprehensive list. Point is, every school does it. You are informed now, so any further comment on it means you have chosen to be a troll or are a moron.
