In State Recruiting - 2017
- Thread starter cytown
- Start date
Glad to see we offered yesterday! Stay on him as more P5 offers will now be coming his way. Congratulations Zach! Now come join the good guys!
MC will be meeting with Beyer in Cedar Rapids today. Sounds like he has been VERY aggressive in pursuit of this kid. Must see something he really likes. Get him flipped MC!
Just -10%? I doubt hed be willing to meet with him if there wasn't at least a slight chance he could be persuaded.
Does this quote sound like he can be persuaded.
“I’ve tried to be as respectful as I can and everything (to Campbell), but he really wants me and he wants to meet with me (Thursday) and tell me what their program has to offer and what kind of player I can be for them,†Beyer said. “But I’m more excited to meet with coach Ferentz and (assistant) coach (Reese) Morgan on Friday.â€
No, but this is time well spent for Campbell if he wants to get Iowa HS coaches attention. Big picture - Campbell showing that this kids HS program matters to him even if ISU doesn't matter to the kid.
Yes. He could literally tell him "dont visit me, there is no chance". Instead, he will visit with MC. Tells me he is leaving the door open (slightly).
Beyer's mother has also been quoted as saying he's a Hawkeye forever. Kudos to your new coach for being aggressive and for introducing himself on the eastern side of the state. There is no downside to him visiting Beyer.
Does this mean KF gets to make a big deal out of it on signing day? (sorry, couldn't resist).
I suppose it could, but really, as the longest-tenured coach in FBS (along with Stoops), KF can say I have the track record of being in one place. If a player's decision comes down to which of the coaches at programs the kid is considering will be there through his whole college career, KF wins that argument every time. He's 60 years old now, but not an "old" 60. He takes care of himself and has plenty of energy to do the job. I doubt he's going to be like Snyder and coaching when he's 76. If I were to make a guess, he'll stick around until he's 67-70 years old, somewhere in that timeframe.
As others have said, if he continues to have success, KF will get a lot of input on the succession plan.
Cool story,
Mods could we please tighten up the threads in the Football forum?
Trolls, there is a place for you...it's called In State Rivals. Go there and doosh away.
Not one word of this post has anything to do with ISU Football recruiting. Mods, please...
Well, he could/would be putting his time into recruits that are actually considering us. It's a longer shot - I acknowledge that. But crazier **** has happened.
Except for the fact it's a thread about Iowa State recruiting...on an Iowa State board?
