Iowa's transfer-laden team CAN beat Penn State

[Jimmy Cinnabon]

* of course these transfers are not yet set in stone, so this is a hypothetical

CP has stated Iowa's strategy is to focus on the portal, so 6 transfers is very realistic.

125 Ayala > Lilledahl

133 Cannon (transfer) = Nago

141 Alirez (transfer) > Bartlett

149 Parco (transfer) = SVN (since injured)

157 Teemer (transfer) < Mesenbrink

165 Caliendo (transfer) < Haines

174 Arnold > Facundo

184 Angelo Ferrari > Barr

197 A.J. Ferrari = Starocci

HWT Hendrickson (transfer) / Keuter < Kerkvliet

Looks like Iowa could stack up a team good enough to fight for 2nd place

IF that's their actual lineup come March, it's extremely formidable.  Even so PSU will be favored. 

But that's a big if.

Starting from the bottom Hendrickson doesn't even have Iowa on his visit list correct and AJ?  I don't know why Jimmy didn't just transfer in a the PSU starters.

I know Ayala is a returning finalist but I'm not sold on him being a favorite over Lilledahl.

Really?  LL will be a true freshman.  Ayala beat #1 seed Penn Stater Braeden Davis.

I think he has to be the favorite on paper until they meet. I certainly think Luke could win it all as a true freshman but its kind of just a prove it situation since its folk and not free.

The real question is the over/under on how many threads can be started that are basically the same thing about Iowa's hypothetical lineup.

I agree....You can only shine up a turd so many times before it disintegrates.

Wording of the title is a subtle dig at Iowa for having transfers, but PSU has three times as many returning transfers as Iowa.

When do we start referring to Iowa as "Portal U"?

I think Michigan still has the title...but if all the rumors re: Iowa and the portal this year are true Iowa might take it.

They are all Portal U, some on the demand side, more on the supply side.
