RichardHangslow Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 Big motor on him, plays A gap really well. Knows how to use his hands really well and has really good pursuit to the ball, can't let him leave the state 1 Quote Link to comment

The_Fan_Man Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 If Hubert has the size (and it looks like he does), then his hands, blanace, and motor make him look like an easy offer. Getting over two sacks and 4 1/2 TFLs per game is wild. I hope the coaches get a chance to see him in person. 1 Quote Link to comment
RichardHangslow Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 He looks great at DE, but I'd imagine that he would move to LB with his frame.... I think a prototypical DE is 6'6" 7". But they can figure that out when he gets here. 1 Quote Link to comment

Even with how bad this class is rated, he wouldn't have exactly helped in that aspect. I'm assuming he has a walk on offer here but recognized he's a better fit as a 4-3 DE and Iowa has a better recent track record of developing guys on both lines. Doesn't make this a lot better - if guys are taking P5 walk-on spots, they need to be here - but I doubt we just never bothered. Frankly he has a better opportunity there, as much as that sucks to acknowledge. Quote Link to comment

We flat out don't deserve to get kids walking on here anymore, there are way better opportunities elsewhere including Iowa. Quote Link to comment
theknife Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 There was definetly and effort to recruit him. He just wasn't going to get a P5 offer from anyone. “I would say Nebraska, Northern Illinois and North Dakota State have talked to me the most,” Hubert said. “I’ve talked to Kenny Wilhite and (Nebraska outside linebackers coach) Mike Dawson about once a week, and (Nebraska inside linebackers coach) Coach Ruud a couple times."

Yeah I hear ya, however in this situation I would gladly smash a square peg in a round hole before I let him go to iowa. He reminds me of A. Hutchinson at Michigan, or at least that is how I see him panning out. I really think this is a big loss. I would have given him a full ride with how lowly the class was/is. 1 Quote Link to comment

I don’t want him at Iowa either, but that’s a pretty bold comparison to say someone without a scholarship offer to a P5 school is going to pan out like the projected top pick in the draft. 4 Quote Link to comment
