IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) -- Linebacker Kyle Williams, considered the top player in Iowa's 2004 recruiting class, will miss his the entire season after being declared academically ineligible, team officials said.
Williams, 6-2, 220 pounds, will spend the fall semester at a New York prep school in hopes of returning to Iowa in January, officials said.

"We are hopeful that things work out well for Kyle and we can welcome him back into our program in the near future," Ferentz said.
Williams signed a national letter of intent to play for Iowa in February and was considered by recruiting experts to be the prize in the Hawkeye recruiting class after earning first team all-American honors from several media and recruiting organizations.
But Williams failed to meet scoring thresholds on NCAA tests for incoming freshmen and will enroll at Milford Academy, in New Berlin, N.Y., the school's head coach said.
Williams will join fellow Hawkeye recruit Shonn Greene, who enrolled at the academy after being declared academically ineligible. Neither player will lose a year of college eligibility, Milford coach Bill Chaplick said.
"As far as I know they're going back" to Iowa, Chaplick said. "If everything goes right academically, they'll be there in January."

, but I can't believe a top notch school would drop their standards that much for a football player. I guess they were trying to prepare for the new ACC.
