Seems like he was targeted by a fraudster, realized it, and was able to quickly talk his way back into a good situation.Committed to Wisconsin once again. Haha.

...or the UW check finally cleared.In other words, no one came with more money.
And it seems the new staff wasn't interested in keeping him....or the UW check finally cleared.
Yikes. Lots of red flags there.How Wisconsin gained, lost and regained a transfer portal commitment in one week
Inside the transfer portal saga of former Syracuse LB Leon Lowery, who reaffirmed his Wisconsin commitment after a drama-filled week.theathletic.com

The Athletic article also states that Lowery had a list of "Demands" prior to signing with Wisconsin. This entire recruiting setup with NIL is an open invitation for bad actors , and will turn College athletics into a cesspool.
Isn't paying for moving a car and arranging living arrangements (beoynd typical student housing)...some kind of pay for play too? That was included. Wisconsin must hate this story.A starting role was on his list of demands. Wisconsin said ok.
If anyone wants an inside look at how much player acquisition has changed, just take a read of that article.

Oh for sure. I just found it funny the official statement they gave. It does reinforce that the money stuff is always -- "well, ya gotta come and our NIL takes care of guys like you but we let them handle it after." And you can see why people get ranges and then end up getting less, especially from some of the sketchier collectives.Everyone knows it's happening everywhere. But yeah, I wouldn't want to be the first school to be made an example of.
They probably won't though. This is a system operating with no controls. No real ones anyway.
I can't be too upset about his "demands" since two of them were: finishing his undergrad degree and getting a masters degree.The Athletic article also states that Lowery had a list of "Demands" prior to signing with Wisconsin.

Agree, although I had to laugh when one of his demands was to move his car to Wisconsin -priceless!I can't be too upset about his "demands" since two of them were: finishing his undergrad degree and getting a masters degree.
Guess he's not down for a 1 day drive ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Agree, although I had to laugh when one of his demands was to move his car to Wisconsin -priceless!
He started here so one would assumeI like the demand to start.
