Sadly almost everyone was in favor of NIL. I remember Jon Miller saying it was a great thing at the time and was a big fan of it. How people didn't see how bad this would get is beyond me. It never was just going to be Name Image Likeness. Pay To Play and Hired Gun is what it is.

He's terrible and often the last guy up the court in limited film. If you are 7-9 and never play, there is a problem. Iowa had a 7-2 guy in Anthony Ramos at one time, and he played in 4 total games then left. I think he went to a D-III school in Iowa but I never heard his name again.
Iowa needs a true big with size. They don't need a dominate scorer but someone who can rebound on offense and defense. 7 footers are not cheap in the portal but that and PG are the two main needs right now.
