Obviously, the Hawkeye football program is not issuing official announcements about guys entering the portal. But I wonder if the players leaving have been asked to space out the timing of their announcements. It sure seems like the news we've gotten so far has been strategically timed:
  • Deasfernandes: mid-day Sunday
  • Petras: early Sunday evening
  • Thompson: mid-day Monday
  • Vines: early Monday evening
  • Labas: mid-day Tuesday
  • Filer: early Tuesday evening
So, then, it's notable that there wasn't a mid-day announcement today (Wednesday). Perhaps this was because All-American teams were announced mid-day today?

It will be interesting to see if we get any announcements this evening, or mid-day tomorrow.

Petras announced three weeks ago.
