New Commit- LJ Gamblin (Story Retracted)

**JHutch** · 12-13-2007, 08:08 PM

I heard today that LJ Gamblin a 6-2, 215 linebacker from Des Moines Lincoln committed. Has anyone else heard this?

Yes it is true and I am not sure what the coaches see in him. I saw him play once last year and once this year and left both games not overly impressed

Where did you see this..I don't see it on Rivals premium.

**Seth** · 12-13-2007, 08:24 PM

iowapreps.rivals.com had it (i think)

Chizik is sure doing a good job of recruiting so far. This would make the 3rd commit this week.

**ketelmeister** · 12-13-2007, 08:39 PM

I can't find that info...can you provide a link..He not a committ on rivals as of today.

ps. Rivals is not the end all, be all.

**ketelmeister** · 12-13-2007, 08:43 PM

The report was not correct...Gamblin was not offered as yet by Iowa State. It has been pulled by rivals.

**Seth** · 12-13-2007, 08:47 PM

ah, ok, so that's what it was. I dunno, i found the link on the iowastate.rivals.com front page earlier, but it was an iowa preps article.

ketelmeister is correct - Paul Clark had reported on it after talking to somebody from iowapreps but has pulled back after it appears there was some miscommunication or a misunderstanding. Paul retracted his story based on the new information and I would assume iowapreps either has or will as well. I hadn't heard about the "commitment" other than by iowapreps and then Rivals/CR so it appears Paul was correct in pulling his story.

**ripvdub** · 12-13-2007, 08:52 PM

so is ther even an offer? I really dont care since i have heard nothing but less than rave reviews for LJ.

**Wesley** · 12-13-2007, 08:57 PM

I cannot believe that P C would just make something up to get a quick headline and to beat out his competitors.

Maybe it was to set a trap for someone to steal premium information.

So we have 15 recruits and 10 or more to go? When is the dead period over XMAS where recruits cannot be contacted? And can anyone leak if we will have any JC players join the school for the second half?

What's up with both Cyclone Nation and Cyclone Report and these false commits?

Commits are how they make their money.

Oh how typical. Gets a scholarship from ISU but could have maybe been a walk on at UI. Jesus I hate those idiots. Just because someone accepts at another school doesn't mean that they were only good enough to walk on at Iowa.

I don't know how to describe it but that insecure crap needs to end. They constantly tell us that we we envy them and that we want to be them but yet they are the ones constantly trying to convince themselves that they aren't us.

Sorry, maybe it's the wine talking...
