Cully Payne Transfers out of Iowa

[UNIpanther99]

And Iowa offers Washpun the next day... No suprise there.

But I found this very interesting:

According to terms of his release, Payne cannot transfer to a Big Ten Conference school or a Division I program in the state of Iowa. His departure leaves McCaffery with three open scholarships heading into the 2011-12 season.

When did restricting players from transferring in-state start becoming a condition of release?

Re: Cully Payne Transfers out of Iowa

ISU lost a Juco recruit in that past couple days, with similar re-signing restrictions, per the Rag.

Otzelberger said the university will grant the release with the condition that Odunsi will not attend a school in the Big 12 Conference or a school on Iowa State’s schedule.

Nice to see the Big Ten enforce the transfer rules of the conference.

The kid saw the writing on the wall, Fran's style is not cully's style and he knew it. Best of luck to the kid, I bet he ends up at either a Div 2 or possibly a MVC school. I just don't think he is that good of a player to go to another BCS school.

Just an FYI, Odunsi is NOT a Juco recruit.

Doug wasn't a transfer

Maybe so but this hasn't always been the case. Carlton Reid? Benny Sapp?

I was just curious when they started doing this and who's decision it was. I don't think Cully would be a good fit here, even if we had room. But who knows what the future might bring. Especially considering the recent history of transfers ending up at MVC schools, it puts us at a disadvantage if we can't recruit them.

Sorry, saw the hyperlink right under the news story saying "ISU recruit named JuCo all-American" Inferred, incorrectly, that this link was a reference to Odunsi.

When Iowa went from the headline basketball program in the state to the cellar dwellar.

Benny Sapp example isn't really applicable in this case, as UNI and Iowa are in different subdivisions for football.

In football, such clauses, if they existed, would likely cover in-state bowl subdivision teams, I'd imagine.

Re: Cully Payne Transfers out of Iowa

How in the world can they enforce not going to another school in the state? I can understand setting up conference rules like that, but outside of conferences? Who would enforce that if he decided to go to ISU or something?
