The longer it goes, the less I like our chances. Is Louisville visit out of nowhere really diminished some hope. I figured he would be in-state or Iowa and if he hasn’t made that determination at this point, it seems to be money is a bigger factor than maybe what was lead onto.

If he’s scheduling visits to Louisville, it would seem the “mom wanting him to stay close to home” angle is not going to be a deciding factor.

It's 2026 not 1996. There's a new rule called the portal. A coach can heavily invest in a 5* player knowing that the chances of landing said player are low.

Problem there is Iowa doesn't have the $$ to outbid the big boys there either for the good PG's

It’s almost like money is a big factor for literally everyone.

Miami paid star qb last year,beck, 7 million.
Miami paid star qb this year,, mensah, 8 million

Miami has many deep pocketed donors,including dolphins owner, billionaire Stephen Roth.

College sports have become the embodiment of vulture capitalism.

Spare me school boy. Alumni with deep pockets are living vicariously through their college teams. They have been successful through hard work and by taking risks. Capitalists - yes, vultures - no

Schoolboy? I wish. Iowa class of 78.
I was not referring to the donors.
College sports has had rules to level playing field for sake of a semblance of competitive balance.

Now,you have rich programs cannabilizing smaller programs rosters.
They have payrolls 3 times larger than their conference rivals.
Call it whatever you want,but it is an artificial " competitive environment due to payroll discrepancy.
