Iowa Hawkeyes Vacate Wins, Face Probation for Recruiting Violations

Iowa Hawkeyes Football Hit with NCAA Penalties for Recruiting Violations: The NCAA has imposed penalties on the Iowa Hawkeyes football team for recruiting violations during the 2023 season. Head coach Kirk Ferentz and receivers coach Jon Budmayr made unauthorized calls to quarterback Cade McNamara, who was on the transfer portal from Michigan. The team must vacate four wins from that season and is on one year of probation. The violations also resulted in a $25,000 fine, a two-week recruiting chat freeze, and fewer in-person scouting days. McNamara, who stuck around Iowa for two seasons, has now transferred to East Tennessee State for his final eligible year. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
