Freshman begin arriving this weekend for Summer Workouts

Coach Doyle is ready for these slim kids out of high school to arrive on campus so he can fatten them up then work them to the bone. The three whom have the best chance to play as true freshman are arriving this weekend.

Keenan Davis - WR
Tall with speed! Just what Coach Soup wants Iowa to start bringing in at WR position since he came on to the staff last year.

Brandon Wegher - RB/KR/PR
Fast with quick feet! Wegher was highly recruited last year and he is a dedicated workout machine. He has the best chance to get on the field returning punts and kickoffs like Tim Dwight did. If he does burn his redshirt then I expect to see him getting some carries at RB also.

Jordan Cotton - WR
His dad Marshall was one helluva football player for Iowa back in the Hayden Fry era. Now it's his kids turn to make a name for the Cotton legacy. Jordan played mostly RB last year and has a good burst of speed for his 6'-1" frame. He needs to add some bulk and he strained his hamstring during the State Track Meet. That might set him back and keep his redshirt on this season.

Late Arrival Honorable Mention
Brad Rogers - RB
He isn't reporting to Iowa camp until July but has been working out with Coach Doyle's program back home. He has reportedly slimmed down 10lbs to around 225lbs with the program. I thought this kid had a legit shot of seeing some time at RB position this year but his late arrival might keep it from happening. He is Shonn Greene and Jeff Brinson type of bruising back that Iowa keeps trying to find in the rough. On his HS film, he looks bigger than his OLinemen and hits the hole hard!!!

The Rest...
There are still a couple of low rated players that have the potential to see some PT as true freshman. I have never been a fan of ratings whether it be Lemming, ESPN, or Rivals. Too many times 5 star, highly recruited players turnout to be a nobody and the 1 star, very little recruited players become All-Americans and 1st Rd Drafters. Iowa's Staff is one of the best at finding these kids. A couple names to throw out where Iowa could use some depth are Joshua Brown, Micah Hyde, and Stephan Ngoumou (which has a really good chance to see some PT).
