What about this guy? Did he ever actually play/qualify/suit up at ISU?

Not that anyone really cares at this point, but JS signed with Nebraska today.

Webster Patrick was the gem of a RB class at Iowa State that was ranked No. 1 in the Big XII and in the top 10-20 nationally in the 2004 recruiting class. The class also included 3-stars Jason Scales, Tyease Thomas and Greg Coleman. Patrick had blazing speed (10.4-10.5 100 meter speed and I think even went lower than that like 10.2. I want to say he set some kind of junior record in the 100 meters.) He enrolled at Iowa State in the summer and was waiting for a waiver from the NCAA on academics. He claimed a learning disorder and was awaiting a clearinghouse ruling on whether he would be eligible by fall. Of course, it's the NCAA and they ruled he wasn't eligible. So he enrolled at a juco and I lost track of him after that, but I want to say he went on to a so-so career at a mid major after juco.
Bipolarcy summed it up well, however, after JUCO it was thought he might still enroll at ISU. What he doesn't say is there were so many threads about him, discussion about him, etc. and it happened 2 times, first he was on campus then he didn't qualify, then he was at JUCO and people thought he was coming back, etc. Just lasted forever.
Well Nebraska will let anyone in lol
It would be a little embarrassing to let a guy in that Wisconsin rejected academically!
This might be why the coach left for Oregon St.

Don't see why. Wisconsin is a much higher level academically.
And the Huskers hired Oregon State's coach after firing Pelini.
One of St. Tom of the Prairie's talking points when UNL joined B1G, was they were now on a level playing field since UNL had much stricter entrance requirements for athletes than the rest of the BigXII.
Perhaps Bucky is as big of whiners as Tommy O, sick of losing to The, afraid of Michigan and is now a BigXII expansion target.

Yeah, guessing that was totally intentional by the author to put that in. Poor kid tried to sound as professional as his mind would let him.
What? A large part of Neb's success was the ability to utilize partial qualifiers during the big 8 years.
Devine would comment on a fellow 2015 recruit. Foot steps Devine...ready to sit that bench for 4 years?
