I usually hesitate to post UI related content , but this is very related. And worth it.

At the start of June, The Athletic’s Scott Dochterman posted a list of ten recruits the Hawkeyes “needed” to land. at the time, I was amused to see how many on his list were scheduled to visit Ames.

Keller and Deylin Hasert were both on that list. Sweet!

For that matter, so were Kaleb Johnson and Micah Riley Ducker. I haven’t paid much attention to the others, but I think they’ve only landed one so far.

Yes, he literally phrased it “need”. :D

But...but...but...the University of Iowa is supposed to be Tight End University! Isn't this is the second tight end recruit Iowa has offered that's said "No thanks, I'd rather be a Cyclone"? This can't be!!
Who's the other?

Those are some big time catches for a HS sophomore (highlight tape) lots of jump balls but the kid is clearly a gifted athlete. One thing about a 16 year old that’s 6’6”, usually these types are late bloomers. Usually uncoordinated at that age but Very impressive as he is clearly not.
I see he is class of 2022 so just finished up his jr year, but Hudl only has his soph film. At least that I could find.
Great to steal a TE from the hawks!
Here, I’ll help. Game highlights.

Iowa has been well known for their tight ends and this is the second tight end recruit in the last month who has turned them down in favor of Iowa State. That seems pretty relevant to this thread, so back off.
Umm…no, it isn’t. Gabe Burke didn’t have a UI offer. Take your own advice and back off, bro.

Ames
Keller is the new Kolar
Burkle is the new Soehner
Moore is the new Allen

Do I got that right?

Not sure. I was watching Keller's highlight tape someone else posted here and he seems to block a lot like Soehner. Definitely more physical than Kolar.

Looks like we we'll be seeing the 2 or 3 TE sets a LOT in the future too. How else can you get all these stud TE's the playing time they deserve?

After this season we'll have a TE room of....

Easton Dean
Tyler Moore
DeShawn Hanika (don't sleep on this guy)
Andrew Keller
Gabe Burkle

That's insane!
