That shirt looks like something sold at the I-80 truck stop
When I was a senior in high school ...

1. I would have resisted having my mother accompany me on a recruiting visit.

2. I would have been embarrassed as hell to have her wearing a shirt like that one.

3. The idea of my mother moving to Iowa City so that she could be there with me while I went to college would have been a non-starter. I went to the U of I specifically to put some distance between me and my parents.

Kids these days probably have their parents sit down with each class professor and the beginning and end of each semester.

It’s also possible that the parents are the ones actually doing the work.

I know I would be down, but might be weird for the jersey chasers

Dochterman said on today’s podcast he thinks Iowa is currently 3rd in NIL in the Big Ten (guessing behind Ohio State and Nebrantska), but he mentioned they’ll probably fall behind Michigan and Penn State soon. It’s pretty crazy to me Iowa would be 1st in line after the traditional blue bloods. If that’s sustained it doesn’t feel awful? Passing those others probably isn’t possible.

I'm ok with him wearing the red hat. It would be ideal if he could get someone else to look good in practice too just to be sure

Thats correct; both current and future projected spot. Iowa’s done a pretty darn good job with this given the challenges it’s navigated

I got the Kirk Swarm video in an email from the athletic dept ten minutes ago. Someone important must have told Gary to stop being a dumbfuck about it.
This is exactly what happened. Bigger donors and people with more power stepped in and told Gary and the Athletic Department to pull their head out of their ass.

I got it too- figured Gary sent his email with list of emails exposed so the swarm could just copy it.
