Have you seen Emmanuel Forbes? Not the exact same type of player but he can certainly make a rosterIs Cooper an NFL player? He’s really small.
If not…. he needs to make his money now.

I can tell you that Iowa is paying certain DB's close to 600K a year. I know we can't pay that but we better get as close to 200-300K if not more for Cooper as we can.
He gone if that's the case. No way we can afford that.I can tell you that Iowa is paying certain DB's close to 600K a year. I know we can't pay that but we better get as close to 200-300K if not more for Cooper as we can.
He kind of has to say that due to our nil limitations. What else is there?End of the day those that want to be Cyclones are going to be Cyclones. Pollard has said before ISU is not the place for those only looking to make a buck. We want to have guys that are all in ISU and hopefully can take care of them on top of it.
Texas - Arch manningJust have them sit out a year if they transfer, that alone would reduce it. Who is gonna pay a player to sit?
I don't think that's going to work once this has been standard procedure a couple years.End of the day those that want to be Cyclones are going to be Cyclones.

I'm guessing the 5 star freshman they had to keep away from the SECWhich Iowa DB is worth that much?
Really? I find that hard to believe I know they have a much larger NIL but paying your DBs that much plus the absurd amount they supposedly paid for their QB doesn't leave a lot for the rest of the football team, basketball team etc.I can tell you that Iowa is paying certain DB's close to 600K a year.

I sit here just conflicted by all of this. The players deserve a cut of all this cash sloshing around. In some form.
But I have a low comfort level with the way it's being done.
Really it's because I see ISU falling behind in a new race to make players professional athletes. The school invests in football and NIL adds another layer that can pull players out of Ames.
New day. Good for the players. Unsure about ISU in this ecosystem, but that's nothing new.
These agencies can actually go out and get them good endorsement deals with national brands
Agreed. Great for the players. Good for them. But the smaller schools are 100% going to get left behind and that's just the way it is.I sit here just conflicted by all of this. The players deserve a cut of all this cash sloshing around. In some form.

I doubt it. That is a crazy amount.*Rumor*
Tech is going after Cooper with 600k
So would the national brands persuade an athlete to go to College A instead of College B? Obviously that would and will happen but I see that happening rarely. Maybe I'm naive.These agencies can actually go out and get them good endorsement deals with national brands
