Too bad he doesn't like country music, we could have swayed him with the Music City Bowl.
Proctor Gone?

Tells ya how "attached" he was to committing to Iowa.
One could even argue that his verbal to Iowa was just a way of leveraging more money from the bigger programs.

Pretty small fulcrum if that were the case...
As the football season progressed it became evident that Iowa needed Kadyn badly with the offensive line play. He was probably not going to get more NIL money from iowa. He probably got a lot more at Bama.Tells ya how "attached" he was to committing to Iowa.

Flipping athletes happens everywhere and now with NIL it will happen more frequently for the top one’s specifically and then that will trickle down to backfills.
That being said, IF Proctor flips to Bama, I wish him no ill will, but I do hope they fail miserably together and he forever regrets his decision.

Don't burn bridges with the recruit. If he goes to Alabama and it doesn't work out, you'll still be in play come transfer-portal time. These last minute flips happen all of the time. One O-lineman is not going to make or break a class. It hurts and it sucks when it happens to your team, but if he really did get offered $2MM+ by Alabama, he should flip. 100%.
Coaches do this to fringe players frequently as it gets close to signing day. It doesn't create as much of a stir because it usually involves a a 2 or 3-star player who might have been a stretch commit for a team. When someone better comes along, they'll discard the commit or make him greyshirt. It's not right, but it happens a lot. There's nothing honorable about college football recruiting. NIL just ratchets up things even more.

Could be kadyn played an excellent game of making the most nil money he could. Turning down 2 mill and then going to Alabama on the last opportunity they had. If so I'm impressed. I'd love to know the nil offer he got though. I bet it easc3 mil ot close to it. Either way congratulations on becoming a millionaire while still in highschool! Not often does that chance come along every day.
I think the only question left to answer is whether he thanks God and quotes the Bible for helping him make such a difficult decision come Wednesday...............

What if he ends with **** wisconsin?

This crossed my mind as well. If this was truly a business deal, it’s great leveraging.Tells ya how "attached" he was to committing to Iowa.

Granted, Iowa has lost some of it's luster than a few decades ago, but it's still shangri la compared to Alabama. Alabama continually ranks in the bottom 10 states in the country by a comprehensive list of factors.
Meh, more room for the true ones who were overlooked and seeing their best route to the NFL is through Iowa. That’s the program’s bread basket recruiting target.
I submit this as Exhibit A - the fact we are nearly on page 40 of this thread - of how stupid NIL is and how much it will decrease the enjoyment of the college football. Dumb!
Make sure to blame the officials for every loss while you are there...Oh and drum up some B1G conspiracy thoughts too.
I hope Nwankpa just explodes on the scene next year and lives up to his 5 star billing because he will be absolutely loved by Hawkeye fans as the 5 star who stayed and balled out.
If you go to Alabama, it may be more appropriate to thank Lucifer and quote something from "Sympathy for the Devil."I think the only question left to answer is whether he thanks God and quotes the Bible for helping him make such a difficult decision come Wednesday...............

Iowa was swimming in the big fish pool with this recruitment. Unfortunately the shark just ate them.
Will do. Definitely the refs sucked the last game. Oh wait, we won that one, never mind!
Let’s be honest. If Kadyn had a change of heart and came back to iowa. Almost all would embrace him with open arms. The “guy wasn’t a good fit crowd” “glad he’s gone crowd” would be non-existent.
At least it wasn't any flagrant 1's and hook and holds missedin the last game!
From what I have heard, this might be the bigger factor.
Yep, big parental influence going on. Actually feel bad for him in a way. I would hate it if my parents were trying to influence my decision on where i should go. I think the best thing to do is to be there for advice and support and let them choose their own path.
Damn @TheonGreyJoy you need to step up your game so this light Mode user will screenshot your posts
This isn't going to last in it's current form. There's either going to be something major that happens as the catalyst for regulation to come in or coaches are going to get together and form an alliance to force reform.
