Barring injury he's going to be probably an All-American and a high 1st rounder by the time he finishes college, no way Bama says no to that.
I understand that, what I'm asking about is his feeling which he mentioned in the article regarding how players treated him upon return.

Ah. If that was true, it sounds like KP may have been expecting a king's entrance since it's lowly Iowa and he's a 5* Bama guy. I doubt he'd expect the same genuflecting from Bama guys. Again, I'm not sure I buy it, he's never come off to me like that kind of dude.

Weren’t Bama beat writers reporting he was coming back? Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought that was a done deal already

Hearing KP might become a Cyclone now.
Actually, that was mentioned on kxno earlier this week and Eickholt didn't deny the possibility either, so that rumor has some legs. Lots of SE Polk connections on our team, too...

I love in the article where he says his teammates were hesitant to trust whether he’s all in or not then he leaves less than two months later. Maybe they were onto something

Iowa fans have really ran with the “kings entrance” narrative but I would wager good money theres much more to the story.

Heard KP was at ISU’s spring practice recently.
Was that before or after he spent the night with your mom.

It was two full months. February was won of them. I tell all my HOK acquaintances, don't be sad it's over be grateful that it happened.

Because they weren’t going to treat him above everyone else? Players didn’t like the parting shots he took at them and the program. I’m glad they weren’t “kissing the ring” so to speak.
They kissed the ring to a bad white QB though. Just saying.

Was thinking the same. He felt shunned in IC. Why would he feel differently in Tuscaloosa?
He went on spring break with Bama football players. So sounds like he'd be welcome by those guys.

New staff at Bama probably has no baggage as KP pretty much hit portal when Saban retired.

Well, 1. He is in Iowa 2. He sure as hell isn't welcome at the Iowa spring practice anymore 3. He probably is playing ISU just to be around football at this time.

I don't think ISU is expecting anything from him (commitment), but if it doesn't cost them anything and might keep some of their SEP teammates happy, I don't see the harm of KP hanging around ISU practice for a week or two. Who knows, maybe he does end up there eventually.

The one big problem with KP hanging around in Ames.... if he goes back to Bama he can share secrets that could work against ISU when they face each other for the Natty.
