Creighton is out of the picture for Josh Cunningham. Bradley is still in the running.

UNI is crushing Iowa, Iowa State, and Drake for the top players in Iowa right now.



Well the best player in the 2014 IA class who held offers from UNI and Creighton committed to Drake. I would say that the longer Giacoletti is here the better Drake is going to do in in-state recruiting.


Currently have offers out there but both went elsewhere

Reed Tellinghuisen who has offers from Albany, Belmont, SDSU, NDSU, and UN-O...he picked SDSU

Nate Gehring - Truman State, MN State Mankato, Albana, SDSU, Ppperdine (accepted), Northern Colorado, Oakland, South Dakota, Colgate, Miami (OH), North Dakota, North Dakota State, Toledo



Really pulling in big time recruits I see.


In all fairness, Drake didn't lose out on either Gehring or Tellinghuisen.....both of those guys committed elsewhere after Drake already had five commitments for their five open spots....so, Drake wasn't recruiting them anymore.

I think that Drake wanted Gehring early on, and wanted him to commit early. From what I hear, he liked Drake, but wanted to hold out for bigger offers.....by the time he realized that he wasn't going to get any big time offers, Drake's class was full.

UNI has been more committed to getting Iowa kids than Drake (or Iowa and Iowa State) has for many years, and that long-term commitment to Iowa kids will serve them well in the future in getting more Iowa kids. Giacoletti and his staff are trying to implement a similar strategy, but obviously Jake and his staff have a head start. Luckily, there are more solid players in Iowa now than there were 10-15 years ago, so hopefully there are enough for both schools.

Who exactly would that be? Wyatt Lohaus is the top rated player in the state and has committed to UNI.

Casey Schlatter had his offer pulled from UNI and UNI currently has a walk-on (4 for 5) player who dominated Schlatter the last two years in three different games.

Kuentsling is a project. Tall. But a project.

Lohaus is a 2 star on espn and isn't rated on rivals or scout.
ESPN has him ranked as the 7th best player in the state.
http://www.verbalcommits.com/players/wyatt-lohaus

Schlatter is 3 star on ESPN, Rivals and Scout.
ESPN ranks him as the number one recruit in the state.
Iowa preps has ranked him in that spot before as well.
http://www.verbalcommits.com/players/casey-schlatter

Different places may have different rankings but i'm certainly pleased that he's headed to Drake.

IowaPreps....the best site for rating Iowa players...does not have Schlatter first.

You want me to post a screen shot to prove you're lying right now?

I realize that you attended a directional school but try to work on your reading comprehension before calling someone a liar.

I wrote,"has ranked him in that spot before."
See that previous ranking category next to Schlatter's name where it says #1?

ESPN ranks Schlatter as the best in Iowa. All three scouting services rank him higher than Lohaus. Deal with it.
