Tampering has to be a thing. Need Shawnee as NCAA Czar.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Are contracts coming?

 

[Gushawk]

It seems having Brian hanging around with the possibility of return isn’t helping during this important talent acquisition and retention period.

Shocking isn’t it

 

[Dolomitey]

Parents telling their kids to chase the money and then pretending for everyone else that money wasn’t much of a consideration at all is quickly getting old.

It’s all above board nowadays so the pretending looks pathetic. Nobody believes you unless you’re very clear.

Possibility? Lol.

 

[Orestes]

It seems having Brian hanging around with the possibility of return isn’t helping during this important talent acquisition and retention period.

But they're making promises.

He very well may go. And I get that Ferentz has never made changes prior to a bowl game. But maybe - just maybe - when you've been demonstrably awful and objectively terrible you have to do things a little differently than what got you to this point?

 

[Gushawk]

It’s monumentally stupid if the change actually is coming. Also monumentally stupid if the change isn’t coming.

but I guess if the replacement is Budamyr, who gives a fuck? not like that offers any excitement to sell.

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

 

[thrawn]

Monetary incentives ARE above board now and people just need to get used to it.

No one is giving any indication that tampering rules are a thing anymore either.

I imagine some of the guys who graduated in the last five years are a little salty about the timing of this. Since the actual NIL part of NIL is obviously bullshit with collectives etc, any player whose career had a pulse would have made some money. If you’re early into a non-sports career, missing on that money by a year or three would kind of suck.

Agreed. Especially if you were a fringe player who may have made a chunk of change in college but didn't have a long pro career waiting for you.

Now imagine you’re a fucking long snapper…

 

[Hawk&Balls]

better than a celibate long snapper

All of the WUW have received more than fair compensation for services rendered.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

You can’t possibly know that.

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

You can’t possibly know that.

Do they get any money from their podcast?

 

[thrawn]

I would probably agree, but I can how you’d talk yourself into something else.

 

[Saul Berkley]

All of the WUW have received more than fair compensation for services rendered.

Especially considering how shitty their podcast is.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Do they get any money from their podcast?

You can’t possibly expect me to know that.

You can’t possibly expect me to know that.

I thought you were the podcasting expert. SMH

Taylor and Chuck Sizzle second as well.

 

[Hawk24]

Apparently that makes him Iowa's 29th consensus AA.

Also marks the first time in program history that Iowa has had a consensus AA for 4 consecutive seasons.

2021 - Linderbaum
2020 - Nixon
2019- Duncan

Plus 2 in 2017 - Jewell and Jackson

 

[Geese]

Still are but you used to be too

[CleteyColgate]

I'm ready to write this one down in pencil!

 

[Shawneemicks]

I’m writing it down in eraser

Iowa his only Power 5 offer? Seems like an added depth guy

 

[CleteyColgate]

Iowa's best receiver. Write it down (in pencil)

 

[Gushawk]

Clear Bruce upgrade imo

 

[BuffettHawk]

Desna Washington is a 6’5” WR from Belle Grade, FL who currently plays for Iowa Central CC. He currently has offers from Colorado and UCF. I don’t know, maybe we should give him a look.

 

[6deuce]

If he’s been offered by Prime is there really a point?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

If he’s been offered by Prime is there really a point?

free returns

 

[Pinehawk]

Do we really have to call him Prime? Is that a done deal?

 

[Geese]

Do we really have to call him Prime? Is that a done deal?

Feel free to call him by his last name "Time" but you're gonna sound like a dumbass

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

He looks pretty good and is certainly better than someone like Arland Bruce and a guy who feigns injury all year.

We offered a week ago.

Son of Flipper Anderson.

James is still playing in the NFL. Future OL coach at iowa for future HC and older brother Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz

The last guy we had from Belle Glade was pretty good if I recall.

 

[Gushawk]

@AZmess appreciates the visible penus in that tweet.

Nope. You do.

 

[BuffettHawk]

Didn't he already announce this?

 

[Truant]

Didn't he already announce this?

He really means it this time…he’s leaving.

 

[Lee Beevers]

We do need to record another pod soon. We can let halo in on when we sent each other pictures of our hair to prove we weren’t bald like that latent homosexual, @The Dad

 

[The Dad]

Latent?

I think not.

 

[Hawk24]

Campbell 1st team AA from Sporting News....Merriweather 2nd team.

Campbell 1st team AA from Sporting News....Merriweather 2nd team.

I didn't even know Sporting News was still a thing.

I remember my dad having a subscription back in '95 or so

Kaevon 1 away from consensus?
