What is happening with Zach's recruitment? Sounds like he has taken visits to Iowa and spent more time there recently. Last I knew he was still committed to ISU.
Twedt no longer committed
- Thread starter CloneGuy8
- Start date
HawkeyeNation has been expecting us to lose this one to them since he committed. I only know this because it was linked to their site around here not that long ago. Not sure if they have inside info or if they just expect every recruit to do this if they want them.
Hopefully he stays, but if he doesn't I'm sure it's just a better fit for him. Sorry, not helpful I know.
He's still fully committed. CMC encourages all recruits to take visits. Honestly, he probably just wants a back up plan in case Campbell leaves.
This should answer your questions

Sounds like he is not fully committed. Obviously looking at Iowa but sounds like he is getting some other interest as well and might explore that. Seems like a good recruit so hope they can hang on.
That was it? The way Iowa posters were talking yesterday I expected more from that interview.
From what little I've gathered, he's just doing the insurance policy thing. Loves ISU and Campbell. Not sure what he's majoring in, but being that he's already a farmer, I'd guess he'd want to major in something Ag related.
I would encourage my kid not to commit this early. Even if they think they are sure, I would want them to see other places just to get some perspective and really evaluate the options.
A lot of kids prefer to commit before their senior season starts just to minimize the distraction. The early signing period has pushed early commitments as well.. I honestly don't see it as a bad thing.
Twedt is only going to be a junior this season though. That is fairly early to commit. There are 2 full football seasons to be played by his future college program before he can even sign the LOI.
So much can change in that time frame.
But,but,but Iowa is known for their ag programs. Like putting stickers on the helmet and crap like that.
What kind of program is Iowa running where they offer a kid who is already committed?
I'm just wondering how that works since Brian says they only offer as many as they have scholarships for. Isn't it kind of risky to use up one of those offers on someone who has already committed to another program?
Yeah but isn't this before the kid's Junior year not Senior? I get before the Senior year but not a whole year earlier. Especially when they haven't had a chance to check out all their options.
The recruiting pitches can get pretty intimidating. "We have two openings and five recruits," etc. If you aren't a 5* recruit, it can be hard not to commit when offered.
