2027 targets Joe Bachmann, Paul Kenny to announce commitments live tonight
- Thread starter Tanner Lafever
- Start date
I enjoy his content. Seems like a decent enough guy.
Thought they were talking about Mineo. No opinion on the other guy
Must’ve misssed his ridiculously unwarranted crash out during Brennans times here.
We just landed 5 top recruits, let's enjoy this and lay off the Swaffords. They apologized a couple of years ago, they apologized today, let's show some grace and accept the apologies and move on.
Mehh, I give him a pass on that crazy. It's his brother , as you know.
Dam right we need to get greedy
. That’s how PSU and now Taylor are on top. I want those 2 and Grajeda, but especially Dhabolt, since he’s not in the lower/ middle weights like the rest.
Joe: 149/157
Borge: 141/149
Kenny: 133/141
Amato: 165
Fred: Probably too early to tell maybe Willie can chime in
Sean: 125
Joe Bachmann 165/ maybe 157
Borge 149/ maybe 141
Paul Kenny 133
Amato 157
Youngblut 141/149
Fred Bachmann (hard to tell, Joe just grew and got big) 141-157 maybe?
Sean Kenny 125
Tom probably:
Great day for Hawk fans. Good families, tough kids. One thing I took out of it was Israel Borge's statement that his only real workout partner has been his brother who he thanked profusely in his announcement. I imagine that young man is going to jump levels. What I also liked was the level of giddyness to announce...these kids are excited to be Hawks. Also, hat tip to the custodian for once again showing up and playing his role as the "Grown Man" who asked for a pic with Drake Ayala in front of the recruits at the game. Our guy with the jangly keys is on it. Tom needs to give him a little bit extra cash in the envelope.

You're not missing anything. He does a great job at highlighting and hyping young wrestlers and giving them a spotlight that most the dipshits in these forums are to lazy to do... he also does a good job of mixing in some of the older wrestlers and keeps the young followers informed on some history and forgotten legends....
remember 80% on the people in here are just part of the cesspool... 10% bring some actual purpose to follow this forum, the other 10% sit back and look for that actual purpose cause mixed in with all the bulkshit, theres some good info that falls in the cracks
Sweet! The 2027 class is starting to look really really good!

See that's how it went down with the brothers. Apparently that's what Melvin Miller was not allowed to do. Family first, Bo, Miller? In a 4 year stretch, Iowa will likely have 6 sets of brothers on roster. Millers, Ayalas, Kennys, Bachmans, Kennedys, Voinovichs, and a bro/sister combo between the M?W teams.
Agree, but wasn't 1993 like Williams, McGinness, Whitmer, Ironside, Mena....which followed Zadick, Sharrat, McIravy.....
The Lee, Warner, Murin class was good. Cassioppi or no?
So was the Schwab, Zadick. TJ williams ?
and Gilliss, Fullhart, Juergens, Hand was in one of those classes too.

Has little little mocco said were he was going? Or his leaning iowa? Probably be the same weight has his brother or can he be 97?
I can't even remember if I've posted this in any of these threads yet - things have been that much of a blur since last night's recruiting bonanza 
Anyway, here's my full story for Hawkeye Report on a one-of-a-kind (and much needed) night for the Iowa program:
Five commitments in 17 minutes: A massive night for Iowa wrestling - On3

I think everyone has noticed less information is getting out .
Top 5 titles for team and individual. I’m not delusional thinking Minnesota can compete with Penn state.
1 of 4 schools with multiple titles this century.
An Olympic Gold, does Iowa have any this century?
3 Hodges
(I use this century cause I was born in 90s)
Now eliminate one wrestler and what do you have for the last 15 years? A big pile of not much. Though I really do like McEnelly. He's special.

I doubt 197, looks like he’s built like the dad. He may be too close in age to go to same school as brother as a heavyweight.
I accidentally got on the PSU board, and of coarse all they are saying is they will all be injured and burnt out soon, we only got them because PSU and Taylor didn’t want them, and this should secure 3-5th for us while they are here. Typical.
Take away Lee and you have 0 Hodges and 1 national champ. Plus mad max is beating Angelo this year.
Dude...you haven't won a conference or NCAA title in ALMOST 20 YEARS. You have ONE top FIVE finish in the last 11 years.
And you think you can compete with Penn State? And you come to an Iowa board to talk crap?
Stop. Just stop. I'm embarrassed for you, and I don't even like you.
This is just untrue, lol, even if we're just limiting it to NCAA champs. Matt McDonough, Tony Ramos, Derek St. John, Cory Clark, and Stephen Buchanan all won titles in the last 15 years (and arguably Metcalf and Borschel depending on how you want to classify the 2010 NCAA championships.
You have ONE relevant wrestler on your roster - ONE. I may make a case for your 141 lb but that's a stretch. Go home
This is so great. The numbers simply don't lie. A certain group have been ridiculously negative about recruiting the past few years, without actually looking at the numbers. Other than PSU, there simply hasn't been another DI team recruiting and starting as many top 10 lb4lb guys that Iowa has since Kemerer.
Prior to Kemerer, Iowa believed more in quantity(many guys in the 20's to 50's range) vs. landing a couple top 10's every year. Obviously, the results are showing. Over time, along with some very solid use of the transfer portal, Iowa has done a pretty damn good job bringing in top talent every single year...just on the roster this year alone you have DeLuca, Ayala, Kennedy, Arnold, Ferrari, Ludington and Kueter as top 13 recruits, along with Block being just outside that.
Now, let's add in the transfers. Caliendo has been an incredible, long term transfer. Peterson, Bailey and Williams fill in giant needs with legit AA contenders. Then you add in a 3X DIII Champ. This year's team is stacked with talent and it looks like Iowa has sure done a TON to keep it that way for years to come.
Where are all the constant whiners now???
For one, the guys listed are just recruits at the moment. I certainly hope they all end up at Iowa, but we have seen how that can change, and quickly.
And can it be argued that despite this "recruiting success" that the actual results haven't kept pace? I think it can be. Even if we claim the mythical 2020 team title, over the time frame you mentioned, Iowa has finished 4th or worse (4) more often than 1st or 2nd (3).
In short, it is at best a little early to be spiking the football.
