Ex-Clones at other schools

Cartevious Norton is the only transfer who has surprised me. He had the physical “look” of a solid D1 RB and CMC spoke highly of him. He never showed anything while at ISU and has yet to do anything at a lower level. Dekkers doesn’t surprise me at the JC level, very strong arm and without pressure from a D1 level rush, his accuracy improves. If he holds up for a full year, he will get another shot at a pretty high D1 level.
This is Dekkers last year of eligibility.

He graduated HS in 20. Reshirted at ISU fall of 20, played 21 and 22, sat 23, playing 24, doesn’t he have 25 as a Covid year?
Basically, 5 years to play 4. The Covid year granted an additional year, so it appears he would have 1 year of eligibility but that may not be true in his case since his eligibility may have been part of his “punishment”.

I’ll be happy when we get to stop doing this math. 2020 was the “doesn’t count” year so his 4-to-play-5 clock started in 21, and he, in theory, could come back in 2025 IF it was the NCAA. I have no idea, though, how NAIA schools deal with this.

NAIA is 4 years (not sure how the Covid year works with them) no limit for those four. Iowa Western is. JUCO which falls under NCAA guidelines.

I'm fairly sure the fallout from the betting thing resulted in Dekkers losing all NCAA eligibility. He'd have to get the NCAA to reconsider his case to play again for any NCAA team and that seems unlikely at best. It's the reason he's at Iowa Western CC. There were probably a lot of FCS/FBS teams that would have taken him.
If he doesn't grade out as an NFL guy this year I could see him try and go to one of the Iowa NAIA schools. Northwestern, Morningside, and Dordt are close to where he's from.

I wondered if he would try coming up through the XFL.
 
In the NIL era do we have a player that’s left and gone on to do much of anything at a bigger school? In any major sport?

This feels somewhat encouraging.
depends on how you look at it with Tyreese Hunter. Lexi Donarski has been pretty solid at North Carolina. Not saying she did better on the court than if she had stayed, but she hasn't been bad. I'm not sure her decision was based entirely on NIL either.

I’m pretty sure NAIA isn’t an option since you have to be in good standing with the NCAA to be eligible to play in that association
 
Isheem Young
That's the only player that came to my mind.

Isheem had 1 good year with Ole Miss (similar stats to what he produced at Iowa State), then sat out a couple of games due to disciplinary reasons in his 2nd season at Ole Miss. Only played half of his 2nd season with Ole Miss.

Transferred to North Texas this year, suffered a knee injury in fall camp and is out for the season.

Hunter stated in the article on him that this is his last year of being able to play.

This is the last year to screw with it.

Unless may be your name is Bowman.
 
Had a good year at Ole Miss then got into some sort of trouble before going to North Texas

It's an interesting thing...the question was who's gone on to a 'bigger school' and done well.

Does that mean bigger than ISU, i.e. actually larger and/or more successful?

Or just a general P5 (4) school.

In the modern era they're imo one of those 'big brand/not great outcome' programs.
