I really hope this isn't true. The athletic site hasn't said anything yet.

He's gone. See ya.

Not very surprising. I don't think he was ever going to be a true up the middle type of back which I'm sure he pictures himself as. Iowa's running game will always be the same under Ferentz and Garmon was more fit to be a slot guy. He either saw the next 3 years going the same way and wanted out or Ferentz wanted him to change position in my opinion.

This is the scenario that makes the most sense to me.

I was more dissapointed when McCall left. Garmon? Meh

same. Hard saying that about a 4 star player but at RB he just isn't able to utilize the skills that made him a 4 star player.

Sad part is we only saw Garmon get like 10 carries but seriously I agree with you. Call me crazy just for some reason Garmon even before he got here his committment wasn't the same as McCall. Maybe people are already starting out with that deep down feeling that RBs aren't going to last at Iowa.

Unreal. Kirk continues to run the program further into the ground. This is pathetic.

Is it possible he had a re-occurrence of a chronic problem?

"Chronic" problem, was that pun intended?

He was a freshman who played sparingly this year. I don't think we can definitively say what he can't do.

BAU. Glad that offer to Edwards was pulled.

Re: Garmon Transferring

I think part of this is that I'm getting split time and the team record of 4-8 doesn't inspire championship level football.

It is great to be a Hawkeye and Iowa does have some of the best fans in the country. Unfortunately the HC is trying to change all of that.

Thanks for starting a new thread.

Re: Garmon Transferring

It's amazing how much freshman think they should play.

EDIT: if in fact that's why he wants to leave.

I would be willing to bet that is not the issue.

Alrighty then.

Re: Garmon Transferring

He looks around and sees Weisman and Bullock just one year ahead of him and those two are going to play. Canzeri is same eligibility age. I too wonder if a position change of some level was discussed. Even if not, his chance at getting meaningful carries next year, barring injuries, weren't great. Weisman and Bullock are the two best knob commodities right now and Canzeri has proven it to the staff

Not surprising, seems to be the thing to do anymore. If things don't immediately turn out the way you want them to, take your ball and go home.
