There was a RB out of Cedar Rapids (?) that lasted one year. then head to Indian Hills CC. The name escapes me.

Andre Dawson?

[Trapped in California]

Sounds right. I think he was highly recruited, and then went off the rails.

[SteinPizza]

Never


Happened twice yesterday apparently

Who was the second?

[BCPanther]

Nate Martens is coming at semester and will be a full go for spring ball.

It's his job. He's the guy. I don't think we really need to have the 'who's going to be our quarterback?' discussion.

Who was the second?

LB from Iowa Central per Cole Bairs article.

[FOTY]

Andre Dawson?

I don't think he had more than a preferred walk-on offer in Iowa City. If I am recalling right, he was quoted in the newspaper the day before signing stating he would sign with UNI unless Iowa offered in the last minute. Again, if I remember right, he was the "big get" in the class which included David Johnson...

[SteinPizza]

Logan and his father both said in their interview yesterday he was playing WR and stuck with UNI because of McCann and playing WR

Then that sounds like a condition of him signing. That happens, and nothing wrong with it either. Didn’t mean to get people’s feathers ruffled by suggesting he could play some D. Position switches happen all the time too.

[clenz]

I was wrong. It was a LB but it was a HS kid from Council Bluffs
Cameron Baker

Offers from Iowa, Indiana, NDSU

Great to see that Wolf stuck with the Panthers. Since he verbally committed it shows class that he honored his commitment. Plus his chances of getting of playing on Sunday is just as great playing here as anywhere else. Ask Paup, Warner, Johnson and several others. If he even has that in mind... He'll get a good education at UNI. Likely football will be his sport but the basketball team might need his help as well. He's been underrated on the hardwood because he played with Green but her really is pretty good. Let's stayed tuned to see what he does.

It was interesting to look at the HN thread on him and watch Iowa fans realize if he wanted to be an NFL WR he picked correctly as Iowa has had less success getting guys into the league and sticking around for a bit than Iowa has

If you’re referring to WRs, you’re correct. The only Iowa WR from the last several years that made the league is Riley McCarron (that I can think of), and that has to be as a special teams guy. His future as an actual pass catching offensive weapon is pretty limited. Iowa’s recruitment and development of WRs has been brutal for much of KF’s tenure, especially the last 5-10 years.

Some special circumstances here, but when is the last time we beat out a Hawkeye scholarship offer?

David Johnson ring a bell?

[BCPanther]

David Johnson ring a bell?

DJ had a walk on offer, not a scholarship.

[Purpledog]

Only other offer for DJ was Illinois State, pretty sure Iowa was looking but didn’t even offer a preferred. Iowa State no interest, even spelled his name wrong.
