I wonder how many of his offers would take him right now. He calls and says I want to commit who would take him? Great kid just not quite developed yet.

Both sides have cooled. ISD thinks he goes to Illinois and that it isn't much of a miss for ND.

Yea in the past week alot of people have changed their opinion and see him going to Illinois. This is fine by me, he's having a pretty bad season, still hasn't bulked up, I'll be okay with someone else.

he's gotta pick Iowa, Illinois is a dumpster fire and they dont get those Zook type "do flip all in college but get drafted high for athleticisim" types anymore

Committed to Iowa. For those of you on Twitter, Adam Jacobi is having a field day with the picture he announced with.

I know, I almost thought he was actually on the field playing...... Then I realized Wait..... he isn't a hawkeye yet, this has to be photo-shopped.

No longer committed to Iowa. The coaches called him and told them they are going in a different direction

They actually pulled the offer during his in home visit with Brian Ferentz. Pretty shitty to do this to a kid committed for a year and who took no other visits.

Wow. That's about as harsh as it gets. At least the coaches manned up and did it in person? Even though the head coach wasn't there?

Has this kid not been effective since his recruitment began?

Pretty late for a team to pull a scholarship. That's pretty screwed up. This is why no one should care about kids taking other visits and decomitting from schools. Schools can be just as uncommitted.

I read he had a pretty tough senior year, and was even benched at times. But still, tough for me to swallow pulling a kids scholarship now, especially since he took no other visits and is presumedly in no other trouble besides being in a situation where Iowa took 3 QBs in a class a dropped the one who had the worst year late.

Stay classy Iowa.

He ended up transferring to Fenwick (my old high school) from Benet and had a really tough senior year. He ended up getting benched numerous times to a kid that a 3/4 star should have easily beaten out. I heard there might have been some disagreements with coaches/attitude problems as well.

Meh, you get recruited over all the time. If you (hawkeyes) feel you got a better option, cut ties and move on.

I'm sure this young man will have his college paid for somewhere else.
