The RB is a way better option.

Hope they are thinking they are going to get some more high school DL.

i'm sure it is a making room for a better option move, rather than we decided we didn't want you to come to iowa after all.

life lessons learned by these kids while on the recruiting trail. bummer for him if he really wanted to come to iowa.

Re: Iowa pulls Caldwell's offer

Could this be a sign that Lambert has contacted the Hawkeyes?

Quanzell Lambert hopefully! Maybe the coaches have gotten a feel from him that he is no longer a Rutgers commit.

No. Caldwell was recruited to play DE. Lambert is LB. And Lambert is still committed to Rutgers and if the new coach they are hiring before signing day woes him enough he stick to it. Aaron Curry would be an option at DE but Rob Howe says he's down to Nebraska and TCU (visiting this weekend).

who knows why, what, etc, but a scholarship spot is a scholarship spot. if you only have a few left, decisions must be made if the landscape changes.

imo lambert will end up on the DL, but that is beside the point of this conversation.

I hope this does not come back to bite them in the ***. It sounded like he was going to come here.

Doesn't make sense at all as BAD as they are going to be on DL next year.

Re: Iowa pulls Caldwell's offer

FWIW:

Lambert, the four-star linebacker from Timber Creek, has not de-committed from Rutgers, said his coach Rob Hinson. Yet, he will reach out to the schools that made his final three or six to make sure that he is not left flat-footed when a new coach is named. Until then he will take a "wait and see" approach.

I don't see Rob saying that anywhere. And Scout's Midlands analyst just posted last night that Iowa's still a finalist. And Woods and Wilson were just at Curry's house last night, for cryin' out loud.

Doesn't mean we'll get him... TCU seems more likely. But we're not out of it.

Only a ********* would jump to that conclusion after reading an ambiguous hack job article. Id be willing to put $5 against an hour in bed with your mother that the article is trying to say Caldwell declined to offer or comment on he reason. Considering Iowa is as stand up as they come in recruiting situations. Hell we've been known to leave offers on the table after kids suffer ACL tears their senior years, that's not something all schools can say.

Iowa coaches are as up front as possible with these kids. They tell them offers are good today and tomorrow ain't promised to anyone. Had he commited a week ago he'd have been a hawk. Unlike other schools we don't oversign.

Just a thought, the last time we pulled an offer near signing fart it was to make room for a silent commit who turned out to be Coe.
