I saw on one of the Hawkeye message boards that some fans were whining that Ali didn't end up at Iowa, being from Iowa City and all. Someone on there said they didn't recruit him because they got Jermaine Davis. Well, I remember Davis initially verballed to UNI, then backed out. So, I guess I was wondering if Davis honored his commitment to UNI, would Ali have not gotten an offer to UNI? Was there any interest between Ali and Iowa?

He wasn't good enough to play at Iowa
Or so they said at the time. Keith Murphy said something funny about it on Twitter.

Davis committed here AFTER Ali, IIRC. We had both at one time, I think (I could be wrong, though).TH1974: This guy was all-UNI, and wanted to show it by pretending to play a non-existant musical instrument in public.Comment

It didn't help that Ali's mother was fired as the Women's volleyball coach at Iowa either."They keep saying that what really matters is not whether you win or lose, but how you played the game. The trouble is that the best way to determine how you played the game is by whether you won or lost." - AnonymousComment

Because Iowa sucks.
Ali wanted to go to a school with a good basketball program.
