For those who got all jacked up over signing day and Proctor flipping, GOOD NEWS, it's not all that important anymore. "Commitment" means holding my scholarship spot in your class unless something better comes along, and "Signing My Letter of Intent" means this is the first place I'll try... if I don't get treated like the star I think I am, I'm outta here.
If Proctor gets his ass handed to him a few times, or gets stuck behind a better player, or gets homesick, or if Alabama underperforms again, or if Iowa has a fantastic season, or any combination of the above and more, you'll likely see him (along with a bazillion others just like him) in the transfer portal in a year or two. Ala Oliver Martin...
Iowa will still thrive on 3-star guys on down who are just grateful for the opportunity to come in, work hard, grow, develop, and be part of a team, etc. But you can expect to see your 4 and 5-star guys leaving for the portal every year or two. Just pick up a few in the portal to replace those on the way out.
