Yep, everything is fair game now. Players went from having zero power to all the power in a very short time.The NCAA isn't going to touch this.

Iowa Football Recruiting
- Thread starter CyTexMex
- Start date
I'm pretty sure if he's received the money it's his.
Leave it to Iowa to take an F'ed up situation and double down.
"Let's keep him in the picture as long as we can so it royaly ***** with spring practice and keeps us from focusing on who our starting LG should be."
Just finished listening to it. What a horrible interview. Those two spent the entire interview fanboying over the swarm d*p sh*it and trying to get invited to his vegas trip than actually pushing him on the details of how the collective can require a player to stay at a university or lose all their money.
You could almost hear the two of them swallow the load that guy was spewing when he told them Proctor didn't receive a dime from Swarm, and then proceeded to talk about Swarm Corporate?????? They didn't even question it! Just swallowed and wiped their chins.

Recapped it perfectly. Ross and Travis are as big of a crap show as the SWARM. They are perfect for each other.
He’s in damage control. There’s two pools of the Swarm, general athletic population pool of money that is what average Joe NIL Swarm member and beer sales essentially goes to and then the private big donors that can specifically designate what the funds are used for.
If he’s good at this, he’ll manage the big donors that any KP money would have been allocated from while playing damage control with the masses on a “clarification” tour. Either way, it’s an indictment on allocation of resources that’s a black eye.
But Virginia basketball has a National Title!! Not sure Iowa has more than a Big10 West Title. A bit of a difference being the best of the best vs. being the best of 7 teams.
I think he called it “Swarmie“ if I heard right. And Brad didn’t really answer him if student athletes tried to stiff the Swarm. All he would say is. “We need the effort or we’re not paying.” If I was a person from Department of Labor, I could make a strong case that Brad is admitting the Swarm is an employer. I agree with you totally. Horrible interview. Brad didn’t help himself. The funniest part is how the announcers were fallling over themselves in saying ‘Brad has a funny personality” when he said the purpose of going to Vegas was to tell his buddies how ugly they have become.
EDIT: SWARM, INC.

What rules? There are none right now it seems.

One thing it looks like Brad wasn’t telling the truth was the issue of “signing bonus.”
He specifically said there was none and it would violate rules on pay to play.
However, in a post on Hawkeye Lounge, a post that was entitled “FYI from Brad” he said he was unsure if the corporate sponsor had any recourse from “clawbacks.” Kinda sounds like a signing bonus to me.

huh? some of us (but it should be ALL of us) hate iowa and enjoy watching them get ******.
Was he referring to Swarm rules? Because they demand a certain amount of charitable work in order to receive payments.
No they had to be careful not to make it look like pay to play. The interview I heard said it was tied to where you lived, not necessarily where you went to school. Sam just said the swarm is tying it to where you go to school. I think Sam was careless with how he worded it.
Well I know the rules Swarm has is the charitable thing to be eligible for payments. As far as worrying about the NCAA, I don’t think there is anything they can do about it now. Pandora’s box is wide open.
I doubt if the NCAA does anything. But it is clear violation of the rules they set up, which they are not now enforcing. It won’t lead to anything, probably, but it is a public relations disaster for Sam and Swarm.
