He was only interested in a program as a HC with significant desire for and funding of a robust RTC.
So Iowa has a new transfer in the room but it’s a secret? Ahh come on
So far the only insider’s prediction that has come true was AJ leaving. That one wasn’t exactly going out on a limb after the SS and knowing our new young AD isn’t afraid to play hard ball, unlike Barta. I do hope they are correct saying we have a big name coming, but I’m already getting sick of these expensive 1 year rentals if they aren’t winning championships to give us good exposure on finals night. I would be more excited about landing top 10 high school recruits, or a blue chip like AJ with 3 years left, minus the controversy.
I don’t like it either, but I understand that most prefer to let the athlete make the announcement first.
To the best of my knowledge, no.
I'd take Dake. The only thing I question about Kyle is his desire to recruit. Does he have the personality to glad hand and happy talk on the phone and in person. I know nothing about Kyle except what I see and he comes across as somewhat introverted. Maybe that's just his gameday face/persona.
Seconded. May Sand-scum rot in jail, the guilt eroding his sanity like a flesh-eating cancer, making each day a fresh panic worse than the last. My dark side unapologetically hopes he took physical abuse from fellow inmates for his horrors. He’s a human stain Penn State will never scrub clean. Yes, Iowa fans should heap all the verbal abuse they can on him, and, when they’re done, heap more. No, a university shouldn’t be smeared over the acts of one mentally defective pervert and those found guilty of looking the other way. Small-minded cowards who project such blanket blame have their own stain.
Back on thread, I think Teemer weighs the higher NIL enticement, the better room and conference competition, the more exciting team trophy race, and pal Parco’s input before becoming a grad transfer Hawk.
I had lunch with Bobby T at China Star-
He told me he doesn't think Dake has a cell phone so no way he could recruit as well as he does.

I was sitting behind you guys, and what he said was, "Dake won't give me his cell number so I don't think he has a phone". It was noisy in there so the quote may not be perfectly accurate.
I have a dream, and that dream is that someday people will stop confusing "it was posted on the Internet" with "inside information."
Some people have a desperate need for attention and to feel important. I reckon more so today than days gone by and we have the internet to thank for that. It’s a gift and a curse.
True. But also others need to embrace not believing everything they read on the internet.
the answer to who the new transfer is..someone who has never been in my kitchen.
Agree the 1 year rentals are not ideal, but can't sit idle and get blown out. I will say unless someone is stroking the check for these transfers, there's nothing to get sick about. That's just the situation we are in. Hopefully recruiting more hammers is on the horizon.
Now to the transfers. We have Parco and 2 more grad transfers who have verballed. One should be in the room no later than next week and on campus by mid July, pending admission acceptance. The other's timetable is less certain last time I checked. Unsure if either have informed their coaches, thus keeping a lid on names getting out for now. One will not be a surprise.
Agreed, is it cool to see new faces in the black n gold that I’ve seen succeed elsewhere? Of course but I’d rather see those guys grow in the room and peak at Iowa.
Didn't MLK say something similar "I have a dream that a person will be judged by the quality of his posts and not the color of his skin"
To almost everyone, yes.
That's a new one. Every week is an adventure.
Guys, lets just ease up and wait for Haines and Mesenbrink to sign.
Think he was referencing Volk but what the hell do I know?
Yes, my child? Have you something to say?
Volk isn’t in the portal and he’s not a grad transfer so I’m not thinking so

We don’t really have room in the lineup for these two but Star would fit. Isn’t he coming?
“Except the @Boomhawk52 already said it’s him” -You less than 24 hours ago
That would be perfect, allow Deluca the redshirt he wants. I didn’t think Volk entered the portal?
