Sounds like good news via Twitter. This kid looks to have the "it" factor. Going up vs doubles and looks to have some football speed. Lets hope he got those ###s up and will be ready to go in the fall. Looks to catch everything with his hands and can make people miss.
 
He also looks 150lbs. I don't see him playing this year. Hope he's as good as the HS Youtube videos suggest he is.

I didn't think he would make it. Good for him. We could use him. His film looked pretty good.
 
is he still committed?

Yeah, he's still committed. He's taking his OV during the spring game and hopefully make everything official then. His coach sounded pretty optimistic that everything would be ok and he would be at Iowa in fall. If not, his coach said the plan is for him to go to Milford Academy (prep school) for the 1st semester and then be at Iowa in January for 2nd semester.

The film I have seen of Darby is exciting. This kid is lightening in a bottle.

Maybe his lack of a test score and grades is why other schools were not more aggressive in recruiting him.

Hope he makes it to Iowa City. A red shirt year to focus on school and to get bigger would be great for this young man.
 
But if he can't grasp the offense, he won't see the field other than a fly and a reverse. We had this 2 yrs ago.

That doesn't necessarily mean that a kid that is borderline academically won't pick up the offense but it is a concern
 
I believe Frank will be just fine after a red shirt year and weight and strength training with Doyle. This young man may very well end up being a "steal" for Iowa. Can't wait to watch him perform on the field.
