Yeah he’s gone. Personally hate this era of college athletics. I’m done giving two ***** about high school recruiting.
Why not just embrace and follow all recruiting? High school and Portal. Each class has different parts, and sometimes doesn't wrap up until August when school starts.Yeah he’s gone. Personally hate this era of college athletics. I’m done giving two ***** about high school recruiting.

Milan, Jones, and Gilbert worked out great, Omaha, Pav, Hamilton, and Fish not so much. That's recruiting. Let's see what next year's class can do.
You have to have a cap put into place but with the NCAA being toothless and it seems to be the wild west with no rules in place it is just going to get out of hand and ruin the sport.
Wait until the SEC and BIG 10 start their own league. It's only a matter of time before the fat lady starts singing.
It's all over Twitter. Just hope he doesn't go to Iowa or any other Big 12 school.The only thing I’ve seen mentioning this is a few WVU pages. Not sure if I believe it or not, but wouldn’t be surprised if he transferred out.
Woah. Take it easy pal. Might be hard to believe, but he wasn’t going to contribute. Most likely, he’ll go tear it up in the Valley or Summit leagueYeah he’s gone. Personally hate this era of college athletics. I’m done giving two ***** about high school recruiting.
If they have to be "employees" to get something resembling the old transfer rules back, maybe that happens.
This isn't sustainable. ISU fans don't mind it because we've been winning. Teams losing with entirely different players every year are going to permanently lose their fanbase.
Great point. Because recruits coming out of HS are never overratedPeople can say whatever they want, but ISU had the highest rated recruiting class in its history less than 18 months ago and all but one of them are about to be gone. That is a failure. Either they whiffed on evaluation or they whiffed on development.
If this is how it's going to be, why bother recruiting high school kids at all? Isn't it a massive waste of time and effort? How can any recruit or parent take you seriously when almost every single freshman you've recruited, you've run off?
Two are left, counting JT Rock. If JT Rock pans out, it will still go down as a productive recruiting class.People can say whatever they want, but ISU had the highest rated recruiting class in its history less than 18 months ago and all but one of them are about to be gone.

Look at the age of Illinois starting 5,....22,22, 23, 23 & 24.People can say whatever they want, but ISU had the highest rated recruiting class in its history less than 18 months ago and all but one of them are about to be gone.

Gives us a chance to load up on transfers that will help us win, but that sucks for the young guys that want to play.Look at the age of Illinois starting 5,....22,22, 23, 23 & 24.
City league all-stars vs. hs kids is always a losing proposition.
