If the clones take this Campbell goes from up-and-comer to next-big-thing. ISU will be hard-pressed to keep him even with the huge buyout. 

 

Maybe. The thing we're seeing in sports, particularly with players, but this can apply to coaches, too, is that the money is becoming so great it isn't as much an incentive. It's not a life changer anymore to go from x to y. When that happens, it becomes much harder to pull someone from a P5 Program. We're not talking Memphis or Houston or UCF that have artificial ceilings that they alone can't overcome. Iowa St is not a top tier program, but there is nothing stopping them from pursuing that goal.

I wouldn't say nothing. ISU is easily one of the hardest P5 programs to win at. They haven't been good since the Missouri Valley Conference was a thing for a reason. It wouldn't just be money that could tempt him away. It's possible he stays but they will be in for a fight.

Everyone in the big conferences has money to put into facilities and such these days if they believe in a program. If KSU could do it, ISU can, they just have to have reason to want to.

Arizona St beats USC

 

Purdue beats us by 14+

 

Baylor gets their first win of the season over Texas

 

Jim Mcelwain resigns amid off field pressure and losing to Georgia 45-10

 

 

 

 

Was very very wrong on the other three but basically nailed the last one
