Looking at the Cornell roster it's dissappointing to see a freshman class with only 5 Iowa High School players. I truly believe that this conference is one with quality players from Iowa High Schools. Look at how Central, Coe and  Wartburg have had recent success with Iowa kids. Until Cornell can do a better job of getting Iowa kids they may continue to struggle.

 I have a lot of ties to the conference.  I played football at both Wartburg and Cornell. So I favor those two programs.

I do have some former players at Central and have had some very positive interactions with their staff over the last couple seasons. So I root for them when they aren't playing my alma matter.

I have read this board for too long without posting so I thought I woud join the fun...Besides a PE teacher doesn't do anything all day and this will help keep me occupied.

High School Teams I cheer for:

Montezuma..where I currently coach
Williamsburg..Worked with a lot of the kids and Coach Ritchie was my high school coach
Dowling..Know some of the staff and Coach Wilson was my 4th grade teacher.
AP...went to camp up there every year and know a couple of their coaches alums well.
West Branch...they gave me firs high school coaching job out of college.
