Anyone notice Iowa's going after another one of our commits?

Iowa is finding out that they can't slow-play these kids anymore. They can't say "don't commit to ISU, we may have something for you in December". Because it used to be that way. Tyler Sash and Colin Sandeman...both had early offers from ISU. A couple months later, they had an iowa offer and were iowa commits. Same with Pat Angerer. Same with Nielson and Hundertmark from Humboldt. Same with Andy Brodell.

These days, if an instate kid has an ISU offer and iowa is slow-playing them, they will likely tell iowa to f-off and commit to ISU. We'll see if Bevins sticks, I'm betting he does. ISU is a solid program, their conference is stable now and their coach is much more personable. Iowa may win more (with their usually easy schedule) but ISU has a lot to offer.

ISU has very little to offer in comparison to most B1G schools academically/athletically. (with the exception of that Big 12 school we just added) It's just the truth, but continue to be a mouth breather and say whatever makes you feel good. :swoon:

And FWIW, Iowa offered every player you mentioned before August. How is that "slow playing" them?

Iowa may offer some ISU commits late, but ISU is going after kids that Iowa was looking at as walkons. I remember hearing the Iowa staff was stunned when ISU offered Brock Dagel,Jevon Miller and Lempke scholarships. Those were all FCS caliber recruits, walkon d1's.

It's a little bit different scenario. The reason Iowa offered Iowa State commits is because they didn't know if they were good enough yet, so they waited to see some film/higher rated recruits and how that plays out.

With other teams offering Iowa recruits, it is simply because Iowa just offered them. I have seen several mentions in articles (from Lemming and other analysts) that once Iowa offers, other schools take notice and decide to offer too.

It is a totally different scenario, ISU players weren't kicking each other's ***** in the locker room in front of recruits. Maybe they should paint the home team's locker room pink as well.

I can guarantee Iowa will be eating those words when Miller is crushing their RB's in two years. You're source must be some other dumb-**** moron, if they told you that when common knowledge is that Iowa missed big on him. In regard to the other two... it's called recruiting your strengths. ISU needs leaner,faster offensive and defensive linemen to compete in a league that is spread happy, whereas Iowa traditionally recruits bigger linemen more adept at run blocking for their pro-style O and 4-3 D. But go ahead and keep knowing generally nothing about your team and it's strategy or football in general and "mouth-breathe" til your heart's content.

You seriously think that ISU has nothing to offer? Come on man, don't be stupid. I know jealously can be nasty and that you guys just aren't that good this year but seriously. Also keep in mind that for all the ISU bashing you do we still BEAT YOUR HAWK *****!

You're hawk arrogance is showing. I love how people on here say that they have some sort of connection to the staff. You're a ******* idiot. If they are surprised that Jevohn got an offer they obviously don't know how to scout talent. The kid is already in the two deeps here and will be a future stud. This and the earlier posts should be enough evidence to keep hawks out of this forum (minus tm and that other hawk).

You got me, I'm jealous of ISU:rolleyes:

Miller and Dagel both camped at Iowa and didn't even get invited to the elite camp later that same month. I talked with someone who helps with the camp and has direct contact with the Iowa coaches.

And you obviously didn't read my post very carefully, I said ISU doesn't have a lot to offer in comparison to B1G schools. Theres a great deal of truth to that too.

Oh that's right I forgot to pay homage to the great and powerful Big 10! How could I be so blind to not pay my respect to the ever-overrated, current 3rd ranked football conference in the NCAA. I must be busy paying attention to the number 1 ranked conference... the BIG 12.

Big 12's lead as top conference shrinks - Big 12 Blog - ESPN

Just keep listening to how much Mark May, Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstriet love the Big 10. After all they aren't biased. It's not like they didn't go to schools in the B1G or work for ESPN who has had media bias toward the B1G since the have existed.

Yeah, there is no way ISU has anything to offer.

Normally I try to not get involved in ******* matches such as these, but wow, "very little to offer?" I defeinitely will concede that most B1G schools would rank higher than us, but to say ISU has very little to offer is not only a stretch, but emphasises how much your homerism is clouding reality for you.

Please. Academically? Really? Just proves you don't know ****. Athletically, ISU offers plenty...at the very least more than most of your conference's bottom feeders, of which there are plenty.

Dagel is definitely a project. Lemke had the talent, but his grades were in question. Funny on Jevohn Miller, when he committed to ISU, the iowa coaches were calling and whining that he didn't give them a real chance. Miller's answer: We'll see you on the field. Guess what? Miller 1, hoks 0.

Your mom called and told me to tell you to get out of the basement and quit using her computer.
This doesn't even make sense, why wouldn't she just walk downstairs and tell him herself? Dirrrrrrr.
The only time Iowa fans get upset about recruiting is with BB of Wisconsin. He's taken several highly touted recruits, and offered immediately after Iowa offered in past years. ISU's recruiting is picking up and Iowa is noticing. In past years (chizek), if Iowa coaches told this kid they wanted him to walk on, he would have walked on. ISU offered, and now Iowa has to offer if they really want him. They both obviously see something good in him. If the kid had any idea of wanting to go to Iowa, he shouldn't have committed to ISU, bottom line.
