May want to message Hakeem and tell him his plays with the eagles don’t count.
Players staying and leaving for 21-22 season
- Thread starter cloneclone
- Start date
Didn’t think he played this year, my bad. The point still stands, any draft pick type money is life changing
everyone gets an extra year not just seniors
So does it work like this?:
if you get 5 seniors that stay this year - you get 5 extra scholarships. But if 10 decide to stay next year you get 10 extra. it’s gonna be a four year process to wash out.
They have been one-year contracts forever until 7-8 years ago, TMK.
Athletic scholarships can be guaranteed for four years, but it's not the norm. The NCAA has allowed colleges to provide multiyear scholarships since 2012. ... Most athletic scholarships are only guaranteed for one year, but they are generally renewed annually.Aug 14, 2019
I think ISU is honoring them as a 4-year commitment.
How so? That much money is life changing. Plus draft picks get a four year contract so if you do make it, you have some security
But the goal should be to get actual life changing money. $1-1.5 mil over a few years isn’t life changing when 40% or more of it is gone to taxes and agent fees. Yes that a lot of money but that goes VERY quickly for most NFL players.
Not saying he should be if he comes back and plays himself into the 2-3rd round instead of the 4-6, that significant dollar. And you can get a loss of value policy to protect against injury. But Kolar already gets that grade (don’t think he will), then yes - he should definitely go.
Well first off, you’re using Butler, a prime example of someone that should have stayed an extra year, as why Kolar shouldn’t. I also think Kolar has bigger dreams than making a million dollars and disappearing into obscurity.
You mean, as if both of his parents are university professors, and he’s really, really smart himself?
If we’re gonna start shitting on earnings over a million, then I don’t know what to tell you guys. Fandom is blinding I guess.
It’s not shitting on a million dollars when you understand your value is much more than that...
A lot of grad programs cover at least part of your tuition, and some cover all of it. At least that was the case when I went to grad school. Of course he'd probably have to work for the department in some capacity, but being a teachers assistant has to be a hell of a lot easier than football.
From greyshirt to starter, Landen Akers plays key role in Iowa State’s development
Landen Akers will play his final game in an Iowa State uniform after being with the program for the past six years.

“This is the ending point for my career,” he said. “I think seven years would be way too much. This is it.”

Opportunity cost. That’s up to each individual, but I know one thing for sure, you ain’t getting paid **** in college.
I posted this in another thread, but got no response...... technically couldn't Purdy have 3 more years at ISU if he has to use his RS year sometime for an injury (hope to hell not of course!)? He's still a true Junior next season eligibility wise correct?
No one is saying he is stupid if he goes pro. Just that there is a reasonable reason to stay another year.
Yes, but that's not going to happen.
I'm going to guess that there will be very few underclassman that take the extra year.
