RECRUITING: Iowa State earns commitment from former LSU CB Ryan Robinson Jr.

Really hope they fix this with roster size limits, including walk-ons. It's crappy but how else do you prevent a team like LSU from just paying their walk-ons the price of tuition plus x amount as NIL? Teams would end up hoarding players that would otherwise play at other schools.
Problem is all the fixing ( through the courts and such) actually causes the problems.
Plenty of playing time available. Even if no one gets dinged up, lots of reps to be had at a position that needs to be fresh.
I really think Hank Poteat and Broomfield can be good/great coaches and recruiters. I'm excited to see where they can take the secondary.
Football- I can’t think of anybody that stands out. However, in basketball, I remember a guy named Marcus Fizer that came out of Louisiana. He turned out ok.
Yeah, scholarship limits don't exist for places with large NIL budgets. I know everyone told me I was wrong last year but it's happening. If those teams are at 85 and want a guy, that's not stopping them. An in state guy getting reimbursed for tuition is peanuts to them.
As soon as NIL became legal, I knew that was going happen. If you have money to spend, it's just a logical move.
A few in the thread but as with everything things get over generalized.
Agree. Would also be interesting to know—how many from his impressive HS offer list circled back to sign him now?
For curiosity sake or for validation of his skillset? I imagine he's raw and needs to be more physical but that's normal for his age. If Campbell used the last scholarship on him I imagine he has value to offer.
He saw the snaps a redshirting freshman gets.
Simply curiosity. So many big programs were after him out of HS, just wondered how much competition CMC had this time around.
Probably impossible to know outside of asking the player.
Nothing wrong with being optimistic that Robinson can play significant snaps. But the staff mentioned this winter cornerback depth is a position of need. Recruiting is a #'s game and roster composition is a #'s game. The Clones had 4 db's transfer out, so adding a couple db's makes sense.
Quick guys are nice to have for special teams at a minimum.

Yeah. CB#1. He beat everyone out without setting foot on campus.

If the only information I had to go on was the last time we saw the team play in Memphis, I'd think most people could show up and immediately be CB1.
