So I see that Stephen McCarty is on the prime time league roster. He is listed as an Iowa recruit on the roster. There are many conflicting reports out there that saying that he is not walking on anymore. Does anyone have a definite answer as to whether or not he is a part of the program? This would make 4 walk-ons if he is.
McCarty?

Rumor- He is gone...he is upset because FM recruited another PG...
Fact- He playing on the PTL...He is listed on the roster...
I would put far more faith in the facts than the forum rumors anyday...

I posted that 'rumor' about him not coming based on the Cartwright signing...But stressed RUMOR...If he is on the PTL roster, then I would bet he is still coming too!

Assuming that's true, I don't really know why he'd be upset - he's a walk-on. Was there some misunderstanding as to what that means?

He was quoted as saying the staff told him they wouldn't recruit another PG.

He still has a pretty amazing opportunity. Cully is a pretty sure bet, but after that there is no given this season. Cartwright seems like a good pick up but has yet to step on campus, yet to practice, yet to play a minute or prove anything.
To be in a position to have a punchers chance to get meaningfulll minutes for a B10 program as a true or RS freshmen has got to be apealing.
Heck to even come in with the plan to work your butt off and red shirt, come back and compete with a Jr and Sr your RS freshmen year. To be in a position where you are 1 injury away from being the #2 PG and or be a 3rd year soph competing with true freshmen in a few years....well...not bad either.
It is perhaps not the traditional path but if he comes with the right attitude, sticks it out and works his rear off there are a lot of potential open doors here.
