Tell me how this OL prospect below, that switched from WSU to ISU, is any worse of a prospect than what we've been getting under Campbell? Video looks just as promising as any of our commits IMO, but I'm no OL expert either.

If they have conversations with the coaches and say they expect X amount of money and or a certain role that the new staff doesn't agree with, is it helpful to keep them around just because they started last year?
I think the new staff would love to keep everyone around but when they sit down and talk, business decisions are made on both sides that make a lot of the situations more mutual than it seems from the outside looking in.
The staff obviously want to win but they will get a little bit of leash with roster turnover. Having guys who are 100% here and on board with their vision is probably worth more than overpaying/overpromising someone who may not be has bought in just to win next year.
The player turnover is a lot of work for the coaches but I'm sure there are some things they actually like about having to rebuild a huge chunk of the roster. It speeds up the "get your guys in" process. We saw in bball how TJ getting to start a roster from scratch can help a coach install their own culture.
Yep... purely a business now.
If Jamison Patton's agent says that his client will come back to ISU, but he wants $500k... then Jimmy is right to say... "don't let the door hit you on the way out buddy!".
84 is a pretty low score for for 247. All but 3 of ISU's 2025 recruits were ranked higher.
what did ISU do to tick off God anyway? stinks! we need to get on his good side somehow!
Matt coaches Penn State. Why would he care if ISU is any good after he left?
Getting attention might be part. But, IMO the promise, hope or loss of money probably plays a big part in 2026.
Using the Norwood example. He probably got paid going from Ball State to the Gamecocks. It didn't have to been life altering $. Then he goes to USC and is basically a role player. Did USC then tell him his paycheck was gone?
IMO CFB and MBB have become transactional. If guys don't produce at a contributor level, the school moves on in search of more upside.
Yep. And kids have inflated asking prices bc agents want them to go to free agency. No hometown discounts here, I’d imagine. I trust Jimmy.
19 days ago, Coach Campbell said in his introductory press conference that he wanted to meet with every player in three or four days.
He’s going to get paid so much
