I wouldn't be surprised to see one of them make their mark during the year and negate the need to go the JuCo route. They certainly haven't been shy about playing young d-lineman in the past, and I think this last class was a big part of them preparing for life without Klug and Ballard.

Also Jeff Peterson transferred to Arkansas, which, last I checked, is not a mid-major.

I mean, that's true, but other than Indiana (where the wind kept holding them up) that's not where most of his INTs came. Most of them were on shorter routes, like the one in the Orange Bowl.

If you're a first rounder (and he is) then go. That's too much money to risk, and he seems to understand that. He had a great game, a great Iowa career, and will be a great pro.

But I know there have been guys recently who took other visits or even decommitted (I'm thinking Reiff and the Praters, just off the top of my head) and kept their offers.

That just means that they're going to start looking elsewhere as well to fill the spot, but it doesn't mean the door is totally closed. Also just a slight correction, but if Hoch is actually gone then Iowa is only at 19 commitments. Stephane N'goumou is no longer a commit.

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 04:08:21 +0000 http://gazetteonline.com/blogs/on-iowa/2009/12/10/barta-on-the-new-football-facility#IDComment46721195 http://gazetteonline.com/blogs/the-hlog/2009/12/07/my-heisman-ballot-1-gerhart-2-suh-3-spiller#IDComment46292842 Different season. Last year there were a bunch of QBs having historically great season, so Greene got lost in the shuffle. He'd easily have been a finalist in this field. Anyway, I'm fine with Gerhart winning, but the best player in college football this year was Suh. Best d-lineman I think I've ever seen, and he completely dominated every game for Nebraska. He also won the Big XII title game by himself, it was absurd. I don't think the credit hours at a demanding school thing should really matter. I mean, great for Gerhart and all (seriously), but the award is about on the field performance.

I'm still bummed out that he eventually attempted a 2 pt shoot last year too.

Although, how do you make an Iowa bowl highlight film and NOT include Tate to Holloway?

He was healthy, Evans was back, and the team was top 10 preseason. Then they got blown out by Duke in the ACC/Big Ten tourney, bombed in the Big Ten like they almost always did under Alford, and didn't even make the NCAAs (although Recker almost got them there by going nuts in the Big Ten Tourney). Iowa fans are really bandwagony about basketball, so everyone jumped on early when the team was supposed to be awesome.

I think I like Ingram a bit more than you do, but Gerhart is a great choice. Nicely done.

What a season.

I also think the Orange would prefer Penn State.

Bobby Stoops still doing some good work for the Hawks.

He's really not much of a blocker, and he's a way better athlete than Gallery was. They have him split out to receiver a ton.

I would guess this pretty much closes out the class, and assures that it'll be ranked in the Top 25. Very cool.

So Iowa couldn't be the champion in that scenario. Wed, 25 Nov 2009 06:47:25 +0000 http://gazetteonline.com/blogs/on-iowa/2009/11/24/iowa-among-20-under-bcs-consideration#IDComment44641535
