I can see these two being in at the same time for pass pro. They'd be a bitch if assigned 'you got that side, i'll take this side" mode. Then with Vansueren, you also have to worry about the state's single season record holder for receptions sneaking out into the flats as well. I can definitely see it as well.

area WR we just offered.



BTW - Ben is not a preferred Walk on - said in an earlier thread that on a 247 Big Ten recruiting podcast mid-fall, Wiltfong/Trieu were gushing about this kid as a perfect example of an under the radar type of kid Iowa takes and makes into an all conference player.

Wiltfrong says Van Sumeren has a laser timed 4.5 40 time and 4.0 shuttle. He calls him one of the best athletes in the Midwest

Wasnt expecting those numbers

Ben had the #1 overall score at the the Cleveland regional of The Opening with a listed 40 time of 4.76. He also had a 4.03 shuttle, 39.0' power ball toss and a 40.3" vertical jump.

Either Nike made a mistake or 247 made a typo and their writer Wiltfong is passing it along. My take is that Ben would be ranked a lot higher if you shave that much off of his 40 time. That's elite speed for a LB or a TE.
