Snowbird Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 This kid can turn into an all conference player. Frost has taken over his recruiting. That’s how much they think of him. Quote Link to comment

He seems talented enough to warrant an offer, but hopefully higher tier defensive lineman are in the fold. 21 minutes ago, Snowbird said: This kid can turn into an all conference player.

I think Iowa State has been a better football program than ours the last 2-3 seasons. I think Matt Campbell is a heck of a coach. And I think offer lists are a single tool in an evaluation of a player, not the end-all, be-all, or did you forget that our main competition for Ameer Abdullah was Vanderbilt? 6 1 Quote Link to comment
Snowbird Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Iowa offered this kid also. He is a small town kid from Iowa. If Iowa and ISU offer you can play. Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I think it's also more the fact that this kid has barely played football. He didn't play all last year and has grown a ton since his soph season. We will see how he does this year as a SR who is healthy again. I agree that offers usually tell you about how good someone is, but we would miss out on several good players from the midwest who don't get the same exposure. 3 Quote Link to comment
bugeater17 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 He will never be highly rated - but he will see an increase in rating soon or during later evaluations. He seems to have generated a lot of buzz this weekend. A bit of an under the radar prospect nationally and really hope we can snag him from Iowa or Iowa State. Quote Link to comment
Sker4Ever Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 With the momentum Iowa State has in the state, to snag this kid right out from under them would be a big win Quote Link to comment
WyoHusker56 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Watching his video from the Pipeline camp, this kid has potential. May not be an immediate contributor, but I bet he develops into a really good player. He's probably a good senior season away from even more P5 offers. 2 Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 At this stage he is bigger, faster, stronger than Garrett Nelson was with better offers.... 2 1 Quote Link to comment

My goal isnt to be Iowa State, nor should we hope every low 3* player turns into the next Ameer. There are hundreds of examples when it doesn't work out that way. I hope he turns into a good player just like you do. 1 Quote Link to comment

But, we have a lot of building to do before we should be expecting to compete with Ohio State and Michigan on every recruit. Gunnerson is a good building block who has another year to get bigger, faster and stronger. Quote Link to comment
