Hours before James Daniels launched a firestorm of allegations against the Iowa football program, 247Sports was tipped off that something was coming.

Daniels' tweet was followed by several others from former players, including Amani Hooker, Toren Young, and Marcel Joy, along with other comments through other mediums by former players.
