From rantsports.com.....how about the comment about "irrelevant East Coast outfits"? When was Iowa relevant?
"Freshman wide receiver Marcus Grant has decided to transfer from the University of Iowa football team, per his Twitter account. Grant, who played both football and basketball at Lawrence Academy in Groton, Massachusetts, was the first player to commit to the Hawkeyes for the 2011 class. He was a consensus three-star recruit and had offers from Syracuse, Connecticut, and other irrelevant East Coast outfits.
Grant cited “family issues” as the reason for the transfer, not coaching problems or a desire for more playing time, but the fact that he mentioned those possible motives in his Twitter post may suggest a more insidious reason. "
