Dean’s Nephew.

I was at ISU when Dean Uthoff was playing. My question: Did Coach Fred offer Jarrod as a good-will gesture due to the legacy issue?
Bo Ryan has a good program, and has reached certain levels of success. But, I believe Fred has his sights set higher and maybe Jarrod doesn’t have the skill set of players Fred wants to bring to ISU.
Thoughts?

He was offered.

I think you're wrong.

ISU was not in as tight as they thought with Uthoff...we wanted him.

You don't make goodwill offers and succeed in big time sports. The offer was legit and we wanted him.

He was a big time prospect... would have been a good get... just chose another direction. Definitely not a "goodwill offering"

he obviously did not want to attend iowa state.
