Former Penn State quarterback Beau Pribula committed to Missouri over Iowa on Sunday night.
Though the Hawkeyes and offensive coordinator Tim Lester would have love to have added Pribula into their quarterback mix, Pribula instead opted for the Tigers and the SEC.
According to On3’s Pete Nakos, Pribula’s NIL package with Missouri will pay him $1.5 million in 2025. Nakos reports that $1.5 million figure is on par with starting SEC quarterbacks.

Pribula visited Iowa last week, but chose Missouri over the Hawkeyes, Ole Miss and UCF.
The 6-foot-2, 207 pound signal-caller appeared in 24 games in two seasons with the Nittany Lions, completing 37-of-56 passes (66.1%) for 424 yards, nine touchdowns, and a lone interception. Pribula also carried 94 times for 571 yards and 10 rushing touchdowns.
Pribula helped Penn State top Wisconsin after starting quarterback Drew Allar was injured.
Pribula completed 11-of-13 passes with one touchdown and also carried six times for 28 yards in that win over Wisconsin.
Iowa has added Auburn transfer quarterback Hank Brown. Brown is already working with the Hawkeyes during their final bowl practices.
The 6-foot-4, 210 pound quarterback appeared in three games with the Tigers this season, completing 27-of-43 passes (62.7%) for 403 yards with six touchdowns against three interceptions.
Iowa will also return quarterbacks Brendan Sullivan and Jackson Stratton and the Hawkeyes signed Jimmy Sullivan as part of their 2025 class.
