Yea it's so so obvious this guys agenda. I highly doubt he can even believe what he was tweeting. He's a nobody internet geek who's trying to make a name for himself. He was pretty much run out of DSM. The only way he can do it is by trying to stir the pot bythrowing out unfounded accusations that have less then 0 merit. Seriously like anyone is going to believe that garbage and that Creighton was and shoulda been where he could go. I just wish everyone would just ignore the whiny baby in Omaha and let it fall on deaf ears from here on out. Coach Mcaffery was in a no lose situation and didn't have to make an effort to go after him. The school being where it is so close to home for him and state of the program now sold itself. Having an AAU teamate (Oglesby) and knowing some other players on the team sure didn't hurt either. That said if the old transfering rules were in place that might have made a difference but they aren't thanks Mr Brust and Wisky for that.

Matt P. is that facebook friend that constantly has controversial statuses so people will pay attention to him, and every day you wonder why you haven’t deleted him.
A teenager who is by all accounts a good kid, great student, doesn’t deserve that kind of accusation. And neither does Fran, who’s kept his nose clean on the recruiting trail.

Just wondering, do you all think we tampered with Uthoff in the early stages? I'm sure Iowa "tampered" too. I bet Fran And Uthoff talked on the phone at least one time during this whole, ordeal, right? I mean, what if Uthoff got there and didn't even like Fran?
I know, disliking Fran is impossible. Yada yada yada. Frans Glasses < Freds Eyes.

Nobody but ISU fans thought people were claiming ISU tampered. Stop being a *****.

Beg and differ all you want. Didn't happen.
Fran recruited him before he chose wisconsin. His buddies from Iowa AAU ball play for Fran at Iowa,and I am sure he has talked to them.
Iowa is under no obligation to Uthoff in terms of a scholly,but I presume he will eventually get one. I really doubt that Uthoff was on Fran's radar until he announced his departure from Wisky,and even then that it was a longshot,due to the 20k it will cost Uthoff.
I love that he will be playing PTL so that Iowa fans can gauge his development since leaving CR. He is a good shooter from the perimeter,and tall guys that can shoot from the arc and run are always nice in Fran's system. Now, Fran needs to nail down that shooting guard from Michigan,EC Matthews,and our 2013 recruiting will be wrapped up. Then on to the 2014 class with 3 schollys to replace McCabe,Marble,and Melsahn. Will need a guard,small forward and power forward in that class,I presume.

Correct...
not even remotely the same level of vitriol and hard feelings with Uthoff as there were with Illinois and Pearl. Illini ended up on probation as a result of the ensuing investigation. Biggest thing to come out of the Uthoff situation will be he gets roundly booed every time Iowa goes to Kohl Center.

He can be treated as any other walk-on...
which would allow him to practice and travel with the team. Iowa had several walk-ons last year who fell under this category (Stokes is one, and Stubbs in previous years).

I could see disliking Fran if he didn't come close to playing for him once already.. Oh wait.. Maybe I can't.

I would almost guarantee that there was no DIRECT communication between Uthoff and Fran. If Fran is one thing, he is savvy, and he has been around the block. I'm sure Uthoff got ahold of Josh Oglesby, or other people he knew through being recruited by Fran and asked them to talk to Fran about it, but from what I understand that isn't tampering, that 3rd party communication is ok.
Now if you think it is tampering to have conversations threw 3rd parties, well then in your mind I'm sure he was tampered with. Yet according to the rules this is allowed.
