Maybe if the money is comparable some of these guys like the idea of instant playing time and realizing you are under very little pressure to light up the stat sheet? I dunno Im just reaching for possible reasons?Holden sounds great, but with his talent + run oriented offense + dumptrucks of NIL $$$ at other programs = why Iowa?
It seems other programs in Southeast would be lining up for him.
Maybe the idea of turning around a program is something that some of these guys are wired for? Lots of questions about the portal and kids reasons...
