One of the cyclone claims was academics, which makes a ton of sense for a guy planning to graduate early and enroll in January.
I’d almost prefer it to be academics over the beetus or whatever he’s got.

He put on weight. He admits it and said he noticed he was slower, his drop in recruitment validates it.

Get the dude in shape which he supposedly is again and he could be a legit stud RB recruit. Worst case scenario, he's a project.

For about 3 years until he crashes and burns.

Or his fat ass has a heart attack.

How could anyone serious about football ever choose Illinois over Iowa? Just understand the calculus there.
I mean, people said that about Iowa Basketball for a long time. Illinois isn't incapable of being good, and Bert might be the guy to make it happen.

Illinois has finished ranked eight times in the last 60 years. It can happen, but the sleeping giant thing with them has been overplayed.

My god they're recruiting under Zook at first. Thank god they held onto him way to long instead of hiring a non terrible coach so he could fuck it up.

That third video is pretty impressive.

Nice speed for a TE.

Watching the SE Polk-Dowling game. Proctor is a man child. Just throwing kids around like rag dolls.

He’s on a team of great players who consistently plays great competition and still appears to be on another level or 2

hearing iowa is in 3rd right now behind OSU and ND, but due to his family situation playing near home may be attractive

I was at Valley/Waukee NW tonight. Raridon showed some great speed when he broke away on a long TD. It was his only catch, though. The sophomore kid across the street from us covered him all night. Helluva baptism to high school football.

we need to fucking convince him NIL locally is more lucrative. Which it could well be. A 5* in Iowa is unprecedented for like 20 years. Everyone knows who he and Proctor are. Both play uniquely revered positions at Iowa too.

We're in third right now, but Bock on 247 is adamant that Iowa is a player and a legitimate threat.

INSIDER!!!! but heard that both 5* Iowa kids could be locked up next month.
The magnitude of landing those two would be difficult to even quantify. Iowa has struggled at times to land the in-state guys that are premier national players. Add to that, a positive effect on whatever supposed racial narrative that still exists.

Those two play positions that Iowa coaches have traditionally made very very very wealthy men.
