Reminds me of when Hobbs went to the Patriots and a Pats friend was complaining about his height at the time. I said look at all of the guys in the Pats secondary, they were all 5'-something.

We're Iowa State, not Texas, Ohio State, Florida, etc. We don't have the luxury of telling three-star recruits to take a hike in favor of better recruits.
NFL Network timed Mays at 4.24, and later showed video of him 1 step behind Jacoby Ford, who officially ran 4.28, when showed side-by-side, and faster than Trindan Holliday, who ran a 4.34
In any case, the point stands that nobody is signing guys like that, so I don't know why our fans would expect ISU to be digging these guys up left and right.
Yep, and just maybe his "whim" comittment was to ISU. The young man has been in contact with KU all season and feels more comfortable with them. These things happen, and you move on.
KU!? Turner Gill!? No swearing or girls after 10pm!?
Gill will be run out of there in the next 3 seasons, nice work Kenneth.
Lawls.

I HIGHLY doubt this was a mutual decision. I think we plain got scooped by Gill however hard that is to believe.
Kenneth, enjoy Lawrence kids will switch thats just a part of the recruiting game...
The rub i have is with CycloneReport, why in the H(#* does Paul Clark at the ISU Rivals page glorify the switch....to me thats just plain stupid for an ISU supporter to put it on the front page of the RIVALS website.....i wud rather it was swept under the rug then publicized....
Just stupid imo, kid has a chance to play as a redshirt Freshman as our secondary will take a heavy toll after next year...instead he can sit there in Lawrence watchin DJ return punts for 4 yards...

Yeah, I don't get that either. Everyone already knew about it by the time that he posted it. It didn't need to be front page stuff.
It was written by Jon Kirby(KU rivals), and is the biggest news in ISU recruiting today so it automatically goes on the front page. You don`t ignore news just because it is not good news.
It might have nothing to do with skill or "stars". Sometimes players aren't right for the program, and just like players leave Oklahoma and come to Iowa State (see David Sims), you never know what the reason for a change is, so throwing the kid or the coaches under the bus is never a good idea. I know this situation is very different then the one with David Sims, but he was a player who came to Iowa State late in the game, and things can happen. Someone had a good reason for the change and I highly doubt it was Turner Gill trying to screw Iowa State over.
I think more importantly than 6 foot 4.3 running DBs is a a Quarterback that runs a 4.3 and can throw a ball 80 yards from his knees through the goalposts. That is what we need.
Because that worked for Jamarcus Russel, Ryan Leaf, Troy Marinovich and we'll see on Cam Newton.
