Mavric Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Four-star prospect per the 247 Composite coming out of Holstein, Iowa in the Class of 2019 Originally said he was retiring from football after last season due to back issues Entered the Transfer Portal in May. At that time, he admitted that the back issues weren't the reason. 1 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 2019 recruit. So, sit out and then 3 years of eligibility? Quote Link to comment

No way, he's claiming his strength coach made racist comments and will get a waiver this season. It was well documented and his coach was let go on his own accord. If he wants to play this season, I would definitely push it to the NCAA, it has worked for others. Quote Link to comment

You have a lot more faith in the NCAA having some form of guide lines and consistency than I am. 2 minutes ago, Treand3 said: Yep, unless he gets a waiver to play immediately.

Either way, he's paying for a year of school. This way, he plays right away. 1 Quote Link to comment

teachercd Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 First, I think almost everyone is getting a waiver this year. The NCAA is not going to want to step on any possible toes, just a guess, but it is what I think. Secondly, props to Iowa for helping this kid come up with that cover story. It is so hard to admit that "stress" or "depression" is beating you down and props to them for realizing this guy (at the time) needed a story to help him out. 2 Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 So why the walk-on and not much interest outside of lower division schools for a former 4*? Apparently we told him that he'll have to earn a scholly? Just gun-shy about his 'health issues' (physical or mental)? 1 Quote Link to comment

Not really. We only have one scholarship available for the 2020 season and that will go to Jospeh if he qualifies. So it makes sense for him to sit out, get in S&C and learn the blocking schemes.

He can just as easily play this year as a walk-on and get a scholarship next year. Point of clarificatly - does the 4 game rule apply to transfers? If that's the case, I could see him sitting this year (playing 4 games) and learning the scheme. But, to not play because of scholarship doesn't make sense to me. 1 Quote Link to comment
