Like most drivers, I have one hand holding my fast food, other hand holding my cell phone, a knee on the steering wheel, and rarely look up from my cell phone so I don't know if other drivers are so irresponsible to be driving distracted or not. I certainly don't drive distracted, that's bad. FJB

Many time ppl are seen looking/using phone while driving crossing the line on the road or having to slam on their brakes so they don't hit the car in front of them.

The word "commit" is not just a throw away word. The recruit should weigh all their options and not be so quick to rush to a decision if they aren't totally sold on a school. Once you make that decision, you should stick by it and be true to the school you committed to. It all comes back to loyalty and when you continue to look elsewhere, what does that say about that person? Show Less

We are not Alabama, most schools have this policy!

Jeff Ingwersen

Recruiting must stay withing the controls of the NCAA and College Football Coaches... If the recruits are allowed to start dictating the process then the system becomes broken.

Josh Steinhoff

Yes. I believe the word commit means forever. If the athlete is not willing to commit, then they should wait.

Iowa just lost a 4-star recruit. That kind of talent doesn't always make it's way to Iowa City, so they need to capitalize when they get it. Not to mention Eno Benjamin was instrumental in getting a few additional recruits to Iowa and that could cause a trickle-down effect. Our loss is someone else's gain and it might just come at the hands of another Big Ten opponent. Get rid of the outdated policy. Show Less

It is outdated and if KF really wants good playmakers and not average Joe's then he going to have to make this change.

Verlan Jansen

This kid is a big talent and he helped us get other big talent! If looking around is so bad, why are we looking at kids that have committed to other schools? Doesn't make sense to turn down that kind of talent when it's so hard to find!!!!

Curtis B

If Eno was a "lean Iowa" or a "soft commit" or a "silent commit" he could have visited other schools without issue, but because he was "committed" he wasn't? It just doesnt make sense. These are 17 year old kids.

Ted Ingwersen

Iowa has a policy against their commits visiting elsewhere, but are more than willing to keep recruiting and will have visits from commits to other schools. I am sure this has happened before, this case is just the highest profiled instance. Which is it Iowa? Make a change.

Seth Koerner

No commitment should be considered 'solid' until the paper is signed. Let him look. If Iowa's staff/facilities are as good as advertised, the recruit will gravitate back.
