Hey USA or FF anyword on when/if McCauley or Rauser twins sign?

[USAFhawk]

Looks good for McCauley, I'll ask about Rauser. They can't sign until the October/November time frame.

[blueearthhawk]

Praying for McCauley be a great one for sure ..GO HAWKS

[oldschoolhawk]

Would be awesome to get McCauley!! But where is/are the Rauser twins from and do we have any interest or hope of getting McIntosh?

[fulsaasfan]

There is definitely interest in both McIntosh and his teamate Tank Knowles but I wouldn't hold my breath on either of them. McIntosh is going to be a very hard sell and I would expect Cal Poly and Okie St to be near the top of his list.

McCauley will hopefully commit soon and would be an GREAT addition to the room to say the least! I'm hopeful on at least 1 of the Rauser twins but don't know that they'll both go the college route together. Oldschoolhawk, the Rausers are from Montana and are both top 100 recruits and very tough lightweights!

We need to be sure to save some money for the juniors to be class as that is a very good class with a bunch of guys to be interested in:

Freddie Rodriguez 125
Corey Clark 125/133
Dylan Peters 125
Jack Hathaway 125/133
Eric Devos 125/133
Jason Tsirtsis 141
Taylor Massa 165/174
Justin Koethe 165/174

[TheGreatTobini]

Factory, Basically take that list down to the Iowa kids and maybe and a big maybe on J.T.
Koethe & Clark won't take much convincing to be Hawkeyes. Massa & Rodriquez will be extremely hard to get to go along with our depth at those weights honestly I don't know if we really "need" them. DeVos, Peters & Hathaway are all pretty solid wrestlers but not real sold on them persay.

2012 prioritys...

John Meeks
Cory Clark
Jason Tsirtsis

those are the three I really like

Meeks will be tough because his brother wrestles at Nebraska.

I don't think there's a chance in hell Meeks becomes a Hawkeye so I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

Really?

Do you say that because of money,weights needed or mutual interest?

I wouldn't be so sure on some of that Tobini. I don't think that Rodriguez will take much convincing and could easily be a Hawk. I would be surprised to see Massa or Tsirtsis though. I do think that Koethe is a likely Iowa recruit. Clark is kind of a question right now as I think that they will recruit him but don't know how much money they'll have for him and what his intentions are.

I don't think that Devos has progressed the way many had hoped and I don't think that he'll be a priority. I really like Peters a lot but he needs to get bigger and if the Hawks do land Rodriguez then that kind of takes away the need for him. Hathaway would be a solid recruit but not sure if he'll go the college route or the international route.

All of the above really. Not sure that there is mutual interest from Meeks or Tsirtsis at this point.

I hope you are correct on Freddie as I really like how that kid gets after it. Peters, Clark and Hathaway are all very good and if one or two end up as 133 pounders it would help spread things out. I agree if we land Freddie the need for 125 will be lightened. I forgot about the Kingsley kid at AV who is very good as weel and in this class, probably projects at 149 or 157. All these kids have two full years of battles so it will be interesting to see how things shake out.

[TheGreatTobini]

FF, Really Rodriquez is a possibility? That would be Great if possible. I also would be extremely suprised if the Hawks land Massa or Tsirtsis. Massa will cost to much and I don't think there is any interest on the Tsirtsis side. I would say out of all the Iowa recruits outside of Koethe I would take Peters if he gets big enough. The other ones are either no chance or just not developing like I am sure they had hoped.
