They were talking about how Jones and the Purdue QB O’Connell played little league baseball together and O’Connell approached Brohm about bringing Jones to Purdue while he was still at Iowa. If the coach initiated contact with Jones before his name was in the transfer portal, that’s a violation.
The fact Purdue's coaches continue to find new levels of ineptitude, yet still manage to pull more out of a player than the Iowa staff could ever dream of speaks volumes about the Iowa staff...
Jesus, it’s not because of Charlie….. this is fvcking dumb for you to say
This isn’t really an Iowa vs Purdue argument. It’s about us losing our top offensive talent because either we either didn’t know how to use him, didn’t have the capacity to, or couldn’t identify his talent. Most likely a combination of the above.
Correct. Especially when he was buried on the depth chart behind guys like Nico Ragini.
**** Purdue, but Charlie is a stud and made the right choice… sucks our coaches don’t recognize or utilize talent
I don't disagree with you on that point. I still say he is a loser because he abandoned his teammates in late May after spring practice. That's like divorcing your pregnant wife at 8 months because you found a new hot chick in a different city. It's all about the timing ... he should have transferred after the first semester.
He wasn't wanted anywhere, including Purdue, until they lost several WRs. But the fact he would bail when he did says A LOT more about the character of Charlie Jones than it does our staff or team.
I hope he gets the last laugh. He's a baller and had put up better numbers individually than our whole offense so far this season. I hope he gets paid.
Hard not to like Aidan. He don’t seem like a douche like others on the team and the staff.
