More news than UNLV has made lately... At least ISU is relevant at this point in time.

At this point, I just really feel the need of a standing ovation to Rebelution. Come on, stand up guys and clap. Can't say I've had this much fun in a thread for a while. That says a lot beings how I never even made it fully through his original post. What is that good old Bison poster's name again??? Regardless, better look out dude. This Rebelution might give you a run for your money. In fact, he is already more fun than you ever were.

I have on good authority that you paid $200K to get RV and when asked what ISU could do, we mentioned that we couldn't compete with that price. FWIW

Not sure if my post elsewhere was the source on this, but I can absolutely confirm that that is what I heard, from a reliable, very close source to RV. To be more accurate, RV's dad essentially named the price, and ISU declined to pursue further. I don't know that RV was aware that that was going on. UNLV may not have ever paid to get recruits there, but they do have a pretty big booster in town there...who happens to run a prep school. Not saying that that is how money was exchanged for RV, but there's a lot of ways school disguise payments so the payment isn't actually coming from the school. Boosters take care of that.

It's crazy how time flies though. Had actually forgotten about RV.

RV's handler got a job at the prep school and since he had a relationship with RV before the recruitment process he could give money to RV. Therefore of his handler was making a very large salary at the prep school he could give whatever of that he wanted to RV and it was legal. That is how I was told the money got exchanged and that was from a pretty good source on the old staff

That definitely makes sense, too. RV's mom loved Fred and RV, for a long time, was leaning towards Iowa State. Then there was a sudden shift. I think we saw that play out in Matt A's and RV subtweets right before he committed. Not faulting him for doing what he felt was the best move for him at that that time, but for someone to claim UNLV (or their boosters) don't pay recruits is just silly.

I was also told he silently committed to ISU after the Michigan game.

I thought UNLV was the Runnin Rebels, not the Run-on Rebels. I must've been wrong.
