STORMINSPANK'S HAWKEYE RAMBLINGS


Hi. My name is Justin VanLaere (don't try to pronounce it, you'll butcher it like everyone else). I am an I.T. Specialist by day, wannabe Hawkeye Blogger by night. My first love is sports, specifically the Iowa Hawkeyes and NCAA Basketball. Come March Madness, I predict the field of 65 and analyze the Bubble Teams (98% correct bids since inception). I follow Hawkeye recruiting closely, and moderate on Hawkeyenation.com. These are my Hawkeye Ramblings... enjoy my insanity.

New Iowa Recruit Basically Says the Hawkeyes Are Better than the Cyclones



Hawk Central Article


Prater, a 5-foot-10, 170-pounder from Omaha Central High School said he grew up watching Iowa and Nebraska. He ultimately selected the Hawkeyes over Iowa State.

“It was a tough choice to make because at Iowa State, I have a close friend there, (quarterback) Phillip Bates, and I talk to him on the phone a lot,” Prater said. “But Iowa, their coaching staff, their record against Iowa State in football and basketball games and wrestling matches and their schedule and all that, that pretty much drew me in.'

“I kept on bringing up the good factors for Iowa and the good factors for Iowa State and I tried to balance them out because Iowa State has a new coaching staff and all that and Iowa won the match-up last year.”
