Should I do the HOK recruits?
HOK COMMITS! (The abridged version)
QB Carson May
NCAA 14 Rating: 67 NCAA 14 Potential: 88
Thoughts: Reminds me of Nate Stanley, but more mobile. Weird throwing motion/mechanics. He'll ride behind Labas.
RB Jaziun Patterson
NCAA 14 Rating: 63 NCAA 14 Potential: 84
Thoughts: He looks good running with the ball, but I have concerns about his strength playing in the big ten. There's another aspect that I'm questioning... but I am not going to go there.
RB Kaleb Johnson
NCAA 14 Rating: 71 NCAA 14 Potential: 90
Thoughts: I wanted him to be a Cyclone. I think he will be a good running back. I have questions about his top end speed at the college level.
WR Jacob Bostick
NCAA 14 Rating: 68 NCAA 14 Potential: 88
Thoughts: Good looking receiver, needs to get better at separating from DBs. Will be tough to find playing time behind Brecht, Bruce and Johnson (especially if Brecht stays).
TE Cael Vanderbush
NCAA 12 Rating: 69 NCAA 12 Potential: 93
Thoughts: Didn't watch his tape until today. Yea, he's really good. Only big negative is he uses his body alot to catch.
TE Addison Ostrenga
NCAA 12 Rating: 64 NCAA 12 Potential: 85
Thoughts: Baseball player. Not great at creating separation, not the best blocker either. I think we are looking at a future linebacker here.
OT Kale Krogh
NCAA 12 Rating: 67 NCAA 12 Potential: 93
Thoughts: I love his athleticism, physicality and his movement; however I think he hips could be an issue. That is why ISU didn't offer. If he is a guard in a zone scheme, I don't think it will matter. Very much a boom or bust kind of guy.
OT Jack Dotzler
NCAA 14 Rating: 69 NCAA 14 Potential: 91
Thoughts: Really solid tackle that gets great leverage and drives well. Not much of a mauler. One of the few ISU recruits that got away.
DE Aaron Graves
NCAA 14 Rating: 76 NCAA 14 Potential: 96
Thoughts: Crazy Athleticism and will be a really good DT for HOK. I want to see how he does against top competition instead of Iowa farm boys.
DE Caden Crawford
NCAA 14 Rating: 68 NCAA 14 Potential: 88
Thoughts: He a really solid Edge player, the kind that HOK love and turn into pros, but I don't see that special spark here. I think he would make a GREAT tight end though; has the perfect build for it.
LB Jayden Montgomery
NCAA 12 Rating: 66 NCAA 12 Potential: 85
Thoughts: He's hard nosed and a good run fitter however, he's small and slow. That makes him a liability in coverage. Miniature Josey Jewell
