The Iowa Hawkeyes have a track record of putting players into the NFL. A LOT of players. Those have come from a number of positions with Iowa being in a position to stake a legitimate claim as “position U” at a handful of spots.
One of those positions, however, is NOT wide receiver. The Hawkeyes have struggled to produce consistent talent at the position and that’s been due in part to a self fulfilling circle Iowa has fallen into. A lack of production at the position means a lack of talent recruited and a lack of talent recruited means there’s no future production at the position.
