Graduate school is expensive. I would take a free MBA if offered for playing sports. Not that I ever made it past cross country in the Little Hawkeye Conference.
Lawrence Cager from Miami officially visiting Iowa State
- Thread starter CubsClones1
- Start date
He might not mind the weather here after experiencing August workouts in Miami.
Great point. Would anyone who has experienced the suffocating humidity of the deep south like to weigh in here?
I would love to see the stats on the number of grad transfers who finish their post-grad program. I can't imagine it's above 25%. Also, don't you have to enter into a graduate degree program that your current school doesn't provide or did I make that up? If so, the typical graduate programs probably wont work and you'll be in some kind of specialty program.
You know this is a race line that has been drawn. Kolar, while being white, is not headed to the NFL. Cager, being black, has aspirations of the NFL. I'm giving the benefit of the doubt to @isutrevman that this was all he meant. I'm guessing @clonedude took this as more of a race comment.
But you do get to jet ski out of your neighborhood when another hurricane hits.I live in Houston and don't have to shovel humidity
Cager is looking to start wherever he ends up transferring to which tells me he is going there to play football, and try to make it into the NFL with more exposure. I don't see someone leaving Miami to come to Iowa or Nebraska with the sole purpose of going to grad school. Kolar is coming here knowing he's not going to play. He came here to finish up his eligibility and spend one year with his younger brother. I wouldn't be surprised is his goal is to become a grad assistant to work his way into coaching. That's the only reason I see him finishing his grad program. It wouldn't shock me at all if Kolar leaves after his eligibility runs out as well. I don't see how race plays into either of those situations.
I believe that I said the same thing, but I got a dislike from @flycy and you got a Winner from him/her. So I'm guessing that I wasn't very clear. does it help with the bolded added?
Cager seems to have the size etc to potentially get an NFL look. He will play ALLOT of snaps if coming here. Kolar hasn't even played many snaps, if any, in first 3 years and IS NOT going to play for ISU unless the sky falls. WHO CARES about anything else. I'm so tired of everything being an issue about........[fill in the blank]
I live in Houston and don't have to shovel humidity
I lived in Houston for 7 years, I prefer Minneapolis (the weather sucks here too). In houston you don't want to go outside May ish to October ish. In Houston it still gets dark around 5:00 in the winter and it still gets brown and trees lose there leaves in the winter. Hope we get Cager.
No one is basing this off race. Solely based on potential playing time and potential to be drafted. Cager has a much better chance of playing and being drafted than Kolar.
Are people disliking this because they think that isutrevman WAS being racist? I guess I should've stayed out of this.
Nothing to talk about, just the favorite for the Big 12 Championship at the turn. No big deal.
Yeah, probably later is right. Haven’t we had like 2 or 3 grad transfers actually commit to us the past two seasons, only to have another school turn them later? Bummer.
