Jok Transferring

[AllIowaTeams]

There is currently a bill in the Iowa Senate that would change the transfer rule from sitting out 90 days to 180 days. It passed the senate sub committee, but nothing has been done further.

It is interesting, the only lobbyist against the bill is representing the Iowa Catholic Conference.

That would certainly be a huge deterrent to transferring if that passes. If a kid is good enough to get looks from big time programs, and he is forced to sit out a season in high school and can't showcase his skills that would really hurt him. By college it's pretty obvious who the top players are so missing a year due to transferring isn't as detrimental at that point in the game.

If he transfers this year he should be good to go by the season. There are at least 45 days left for most schools this year, and at least 50 days of school next year before the first game. If he waits until the end of the year he has to sit 90 days(not sure about the 'school in need of assistance' thing). 90 days is usually a week or 2 after winter break for most schools.

And there you have it...Jok to Valley. Looks like ISU's recruiting job just got a little tougher.

Yeah. You've gotta love the fact that the DSM Rag-ister's elite sports team writes up the article to emphasize Roy ******* Williams. We all know the Skype-master went to UNC, Randy. Let this kid make his own call.

Roy Williams probably told him about it.

Itll be dowling

Nope. They got out-recruited by Valley, imagine that!

Rumor flying around HN is Horner "gifted" Jok and the Nixon kid Valley jerseys with their names on the back to seal the deal.

Also reporting, that the recruiting pipeline is "opening" up for Valley and many big name kids will be heading there down the road to play for Horner.

Someone on Valley's team told me that theres a rumor that Roy Marble's son may be transferring there also.

Not liking our chances with Jok anymore.

I'm not really a huge follower of the high school basketball in Iowa since I've come to college so why exactly is this such bad news for ISU?

first bullet point of horner's resume sent for college assistant jobs now reads "successfully recruited top player in iowa by using the 'name on jersey' trick, which worked on me in 2001."
