Kinda seems like he wants some type of red color in his life.
From what I have read they wanted him to be a strictly hand in the ground DE. He wants to be LB. So they basically both went their separate ways. I think he does fit better as an outside backer in a 3-4.

You know you're an engineering school when . . .
They've done studies. Harvard, Yale, et al graduates aren't any smarter than anyone else. Talent is evenly distributed, opportunity is not.
So Yale graduates aren’t any smarter than Upper Iowa graduates....that’s an interesting hill to die on.
Maybe if your going off standardized testing. It was a general statement meant to support the idea not a concrete end all.
Care to explain? I can't think of any realm this applies.. certainly not in sports
Just because you're a poor kid from Montana, doesnt mean you are less likely to be as talented as a rich kid from Texas. It wasn't directly related to sports but another poster's idea that educational prestige isn't indicative of better quality employees.
I like the research that Malcolm Gladwell shared in his book Outliers. Amazon product ASIN B001LNK9C4
Iowa stopped showing interest in him, he wanted a little more love from KF than he was getting. I think ISU has a solid chance at landing him.
To a point, A couple who both have 80 IQs are less likely to have a brilliant child than two geniuses in my opinion.
I wasn't really talking about genetics, more about statistics and I'm not really sure what that has to do with what I said?
Wasn't there an article where he was quoted saying the Iowa coaches stopped contacting him, and something about him thinking they were going to come to one of his basketball games and then didn't?
Yes. Bollers wasn’t seriously considering Iowa, so Iowa decided it would be mutually beneficial to go their separate ways. IMO that article was just a way for the Bollers’ to take some heat off TJ for not wanting to go to Iowa.
This whole story was something Iowa fans made up to make themselves feel better about Bollers not prioritizing them. I can say with 100% certainty that ISU is recruiting him as a DE.
No lol. He wasn’t interest in them, THEN they stopped contacting him.
It’s not mutual when one person says they aren’t interest, aka Bollers told Iowa thanks but no thanks
Ah, got it. Weird he still seemed pretty miffed that none of the Iowa coaches showed up to watch his basketball game. I do think ISU has a good chance at landing him. Would be a big get.
