Could be the same reason Gophers don't offer all kids in Minnesota, maybe the kid already told the staff he wasn't interested. Maybe the kids family doesn't want him to go to Iowa and they told the coaches at the beginning. Maybe the head coach at his school has had issues with Iowa in the past...
This is what PJ said after the WI game so I assume Quinn is not out of eligibility.
"I think our offensive line, Aireontae goes out on the first series, and Quinn Carroll and I talked about possibly moving him to left tackle if Aireontae decides to declare for the draft which, you know, I'm...
I believe 3 of the commitments didn't play at all as Juniors (might even be a 4th) so without playing it's hard to get a bump in ratings obviously. I'm guessing some will have big senior years and then the question will be holding onto them. But every school in the country is in the same boat...

Hetherman is known for an aggressive defense that one former James Madison defensive lineman described as "super aggressive," telling the the Daily News-Record in 2019...
You know the famous GIF of WWE legend The Undertaker sitting upright from a flat-on-his-back position? Picture that and you pretty much get the idea for Koi Perich’s week. A tough couple of early-week practices turned into periodic flashes in following sessions as he got better as the week...
With the All-American Bowl MVP now going on the bookshelf in the Perich residence, Koi will prepare to enroll at Minnesota in the upcoming weeks as an early enrolee with the program as he hopes to become the next great safety for the program...
We have to also remember, maybe kids can't simply get into the school so they have to reopen their commitment. Not saying this is the case but I'm guessing when the transcripts come in and they see a kid either wasn't going to class or didn't take courses that can transfer over so he doesn't...
Minnesota signee and Top247 safety Koi Perich struggled with the vast increase in competition level on day one but rebounded extremely well on day two and made a serious case for “next five on defense” honors. Perich is one of the freakiest athletes in the cycle and as he began to adjust to the...
-- We did not get West squad linemen 1-on-1s Monday, but we want to keep a keen eye on Minnesota-bound offensive lineman Brett Carroll, who served as the West's center. Carroll looked at home snapping, which is highly valuable not only from a projection standpoint, but a functional perspective...
With practice starting for the All American Bowl just had some write ups for some of the guys when they showed up and did their measurables.
-- Hailing from Kindred (N.D..), Minnesota-bound Top247 defensive lineman Riley Sunram did not disappoint at check-in, measuring 6-4, 275 with an arm...
I'd love to take that bet! I live in Duluth and I would bet my life that he's not "overwhelmed" when he comes to Duluth. This is such a preposterous statement it's not even funny. You act like he's in one classroom with all the kids k-12th grade like back in the prairie days! You do understand...
