Bo Bassett COMMITS to IOWA. Who's next?

[clayborn_94]

On a side note, these "NIL" numbers are crazy (to fans, at least) in every sport.

I would not be surprised if the #1 wrestler in the country is getting $1M/year in "NIL." As we know, there are several Iowa wrestling boosters with a lot of money who want this program back on top (just look at the names on/in the wrestling building, for starters).

Iowa boosters are paying the new Iowa QB $1.3M for his ONE YEAR of services and Iowa football won't be winning any championships like Bo hopefully will.

These huge "NIL" deals are great for the kids, obviously; not sure how great they are for the sports, however. This kind of stuff used to give a program the death penalty.

The 1.3 for MG is also just something some local news outlet reported and didn’t have any real info. I’m guessing like a lot of NFL contracts there are bonuses added and could be up to 1.3 million though for hitting win totals, bowl games, big ten title game, and making playoffs. And even if it isn’t and it’s just 1.3 million straight up for one year with revenue sharing and then getting most likely 14 of the 20 mil of it in football plus collective money paying you’re starting qb 1-2 million a year of potentially 20+ million is going to be very standard for P4 schools.

At least he should let the stupid Iowa fans that believe anything he says that his sources are the clowns, cowboys, and wrestling "media" that he's in bed with. All of his sources are Iowa haters. He's also a proven liar who has tried to hurt the Iowa program in the past. Hopefully when his guy starts wrestling for Iowa State next year he'll move on.

Who's "my guy" ?

And no. I'm not, and have never "tried to hurt the Iowa program."

Have I been on the Fire Brands wagon for a long time? Have I thought that Brands being at the helm has led to some pretty stupid things that made us look bad? Yes to both. I like talking wrestling. Period. Good and Bad. And i have my opinions.

But I've also been very positive about Brands, about the program, pretty much since they "let go" of AJ and Anthony. They're making changes, they're doing great things. I didn't like the grabbing guys not in the portal - but once I learned it wasn't a rule - I let that go. Hell, I cheered when Big Bob got us Buchanan and Teemer.

I like trolling. It's hilarious to me. This is a message board, so I don't always understand why people take so much so serious - none of what I post on this site has ever changed the life of anyone who reads this board or doesn't.

And I will probably always have sources in different places. Fingers crossed, I'll have one in Happy Valley soon. But I'm a Hawk fan first and foremost. Always have been, always will be.

It's pretty clear vhs gets a text from a certain media friend, and then runs online to post that he's heard the same, and to help give the rumors credibility.

nah. I keep most of what I learn to myself.

Jeepers! First pot of coffee ain’t even down yet….

 

[82bordeaux]

Fingers crossed, I'll have one in Happy Valley soon.

 

[Kwoodhawk]

So, when Lee retires from competition and becomes our Hawk Coach, does he bring Bo on as assistant coach?

And which one does recruiting?

Too soon??? 😇

 

[HawkeyePA]

 

[Jcchawk]

Yes. He did say that.

So you're implying he's lying?

Technically there aren't (or weren't) supposed to be any performance related language in the contract. it seemed like a pretty arbitrary line, but then it was something other than 'NIL'. Even though a players n,I,&L all become more valuable the better he performs.

That may allhave changed (or just been ignored).

Guessing most didn't read the entire post so I pulled out the main point. It's too bad, this board needs more "real" posters.

Come on man. I definitely do a lot of both. I'll give info, and i'll roast yo momma in the same thread!

For instance - Deangelo Vickers momma so fat Dora can't even explore her!

Gut feeling. Don't know for sure. hope i'm super wrong.

i am holding out hope on Bo's response (smiley facec) on X to Jax saying he is going to commit Thursday.

 

[Muscles1989]

Overthinking says if it was both Iowa they would’ve shared that moment together, instead I’m seeing Okie st and always been

Trolling is dumb and the work of small, little people.

Childish- simple as that. It’s not a weakness to ignore trolls, it just saves time.

Spare me the incredulity. Like you've never done it.

Which one of you hopes that? Who is logged on?

Is the other one of you excited for him to be a Cowgirl?

Agreed. They are terrible people.

Is the other one of you excited for him to be a Cowgirl? Trump has put things in place where "he" cannot be a cowgirl. But carry on.

Your boy Chase on 34 is soft as Charmin. He calls Bo dishonest I call him out and he bans me. Looks like Chase has never been in a position of power before.

Chase isn't my guy @AtownPoke is. But that's wild. I'm never in favor of banning unless it reaches untenable levels. That interaction didn't seem out of bounds.
