. . . message boards.

To sum up the last few weeks.

"Garmon - he's going to Miami."

"Kozan he's a lock for O$U."

"JJ, he's flipped to MSU and won't be coming."

"Curry, say goodbye he is off to Nebraska."

"Buford will be attending Illinois because a certain guy from Toledo is now their coach."

"Wow a Parade AA running back, color me unimpressed."

"Just in case you're wondering we are finishing weak."

@:54 Heath Ledger asks the question but I will repeat it. When did all these negative Nancys infest the board - and why did they rip their own balls off? None of those statements above are true, why are people set on spreading negative lies?!

Because. We ... are ... IOWA.

In a 5 page thread where 8 out of 10 posters are up beat the 2 negative posters get so deeply under the skin of a few others they are quoted over and over and argued with rather than ignored.

Later on so many fail to see the true tone of the board.

While I agree with the OP's point to an extent(about negative posting), we do understand that this is a forum about Hawkeye recruiting and we will hear rumors about where recruits will and will not be going. If you don't want that information you should just wait for signing day and read the list. I think the fact that Jaleel was considering a visit to MSU after a verbal commit to Iowa is a relevant posting in a recruting forum.

Curry just received an offer from Texas A and M, I believe.

Not sure how much he was wanting an offer from them, but that doesn't improve our odds with him, I would think.

How's that for negative?

It was TCU, he's visiting this weekend, and his dad says they are the front runner per ESPN

ok - he has a visit listed for TAM on the 27th - that is today. I was thinking that was this weekend.

rivals lists him as having 4 official visits taken, the 5th being today to TAM, so if TCU is this weekend, it must be 'unofficial'. or the rivals visits are incorrect.

ESPNwas reporting that TAM was out of it, but they may have gotten int backwards. Down to Iowa, Mizzou, Nebby, and TCU

Curry gets TCU offer, set for visit - Football Recruiting - Midlands Region Blog - ESPN

Also I think Lohn was the one who got the TAM offer and had family that played there, but I could be wrong.

Why did they rip their own balls off?

In case you haven't noticed, we have zero effect on what happens with the team.

Recruits and their friends/families do check out message boards. We do have an affect on perception of the program.
