What's this lady look like?His mom is a big reason. She’s chasing that money.

The kid pulls shit like this and you blame Kirk ? Come on man, stop being a dumb ass.NFL free agency isn’t close to this crazy. I might as well just stick with the NFL. At least there are actual contracts and rules and shit.
FTR, if Proctor got more money from Alabama to come back, I really don’t blame Proctor. He really played Kirk, though, with this whole idea of being homesick. If the reason he is leaving is because he is unimpressed with the Lester hire and realizes Kirk isn’t changing and the offense is going to continue to suck, I don’t blame him either.
Either way, this might be the last straw for Kirk that compels him to retire early. I’m not sure I even care anymore about college football. Iowa is going to get left behind like so many other schools. Even if Kirk were to step down and a young coach who embraces NIL and the current culture of college football steps in, I don’t see the Swarm collective as being sustainable. It’s just not going to work.
Lets just clarify that statement. EVERYONE did NOT think NIL would be a good thing....And everyone thought NIL would be a good thing.
Again, the NCAA has had its ASS kicked in court already, there not going to ask for caps or control. They know they can't win that battle in the courts.“Committing” to Iowa 2x … I guess we can believe more $ coming from Alabama. The unfortunate part is zero repercussions… Kids committing, de-committing … playing for 3-4 schools … Highest bidder wins. NCAA really screwed this up … Looking more and more like professional sports. Might as well place a cap limit on each program. Give kids one free transfer and anything more - you sit. As a coach - you have to hate this new world - especially the mid major programs. Kid has a “good” season and then hits the portal for $. At a minimum, KP should be required to sit one year. There has to be some type of penalty. What a shit-show…
I do not follow NFL just Iowa grads to see how they did because I hate the way the NFL went corporate and embraced certain ideologies ect, College sports has gotten to that point where I am having a real issue staying " enthused " because of Kids like this who could care less about the State, School or Team . Why Should I be loyal to utter scumbags like that ?? For every Joe Evans there is 50 ProctorsLets just clarify that statement. EVERYONE did NOT think NIL would be a good thing....
lol. Name a coach that went to a school for two months and went back to the previous school and took their money.
Uhhhh, it’s the SEC. GPA’s are a non-factor and eligibility is a given.I’d love to know how the hell he’s completing enough hours to be eligible.
He already said that in an interview yesterday. He doesn't care what Bama fans said about him transferring and doesn't care about what Iowa fans say. I gave a little to NIL early-on but I'm done with that. When players are getting millions in college before they are 20, it sends the wrong message. I have had season tickets for 37 years and will be at Kinnick in the fall, with or without "what"s his name".Eh, people like that don't give two shits about what others think
That is seriously your level of reading comprehension?The kid pulls shit like this and you blame Kirk ? Come on man, stop being a dumb ass.
Jesus Christ. I’m off my phone for 4 waking hours and wake up to this?Holy F.
Seems he was using Iowa to get a better deal from Bama.
Someone is taking online classes in his name, pretty sure it’s not him.He's probably sitting in his luxury condo in T-town taking Iowa classes online.
Exactly. I said it a few years ago that the NCAA has effectively thrown their arms up in the air.Again, the NCAA has had its ASS kicked in court already, there not going to ask for caps or control. They know they can't win that battle in the courts.
Nope.Do you belong to SWARM?
Asking for a friend.
Don’t give a shit where it came from - he still ran with money that could’ve been used for an athlete that’s true to their word.Brad just said on KXNO Proctor hasn’t received a dollar from Swarm donations. The only money made came from corporate partners.
They tried. Got sued. Federal courts shot it down. Pay attention.NCAA has to institute a one time free transfer rule.
Transfer again…sit a year
I don't think that is true. Most people that follow college sports didn't like it because it turned the college sport into a professional game.And everyone thought NIL would be a good thing.
He’s just moving money around. Damage control but Swarm is screwed.Brad just said on KXNO Proctor hasn’t received a dollar from Swarm donations. The only money made came from corporate partners.
I don’t understand the difference.Brad just said on KXNO Proctor hasn’t received a dollar from Swarm donations. The only money made came from corporate partners.
Jesus Christ. I’m off my phone for 4 waking hours and wake up to this?
Courts have no say in NCAA rules unless those rules are contrary to the Constitution. Courts haven't stricken the fair catch rule have they?Courts would kill it.
Huh? Courts have already ruled on NIL restrictions and transferring restrictions.Courts have no say in NCAA rules unless those rules are contrary to the Constitution. Courts haven't stricken the fair catch rule have they?
There are a number of other players that could have left Iowa for more money and they were loyal to Iowa and Kirk. This one is a kid with no integrity. We benefit from kids coming in the portal, but what he did here is way different.He already said that in an interview yesterday. He doesn't care what Bama fans said about him transferring and doesn't care about what Iowa fans say. I gave a little to NIL early-on but I'm done with that. When players are getting millions in college before they are 20, it sends the wrong message. I have had season tickets for 37 years and will be at Kinnick in the fall, with or without "what"s his name".
To the players who wear the black and gold, thank you for wanting to be Hawkeyes.
I’d wager there was a d lineman or two that couldn’t wait to battle against him.I think there was likely a social aspect to all this. I mean, I wonder if KP had really been accepted by his Iowa teammates. It’s not hard for me to imagine a scenario in which the guys who have been battling together for a couple of years don’t take kindly to the hotshot from Bama who shows up and expects to be treated like the team’s savior.
KP has always been a BMOC, and he may have expected to be able to step into a social situation that didn’t exist anymore.
You don’t go on Spring Break with your friends from your old school if you’ve made friends at your new school.
I definitely agree that a big attraction to college sports is the "storyline" of a "girl/boy next door" working hard and pursuing their dream only to find a measure of success in college competition, etc. To me, for that formula to feel right, there has to be some sort of team/school loyalty combined with continuity. In the absence of that, my interest in people that I don't know playing sports so as to individually extract the most $$'s possible in a given year is just not something that I see myself maintaining any interest in....
As much as I dislike Colin cowherd, he hit the nail on the head the other day. He said people are in love with Clark because she has been at a school for more than a year or two and people know who she is and can follow her. Granted I have a new child so my time has been occupied but outside of the big 10, I don’t think I know a single men’s college basketball player.
...
can u blame them?Truth comes out: KP cares about KP and there is no 2nd place.
