I dont know of a lot of Universities that would keep a convicted discriminator on as head boss.

That has nothing to do with ISU fans weird obsession with Dolph being suspended. Probably a good idea to deflect though since it's a really weird look to be so obsessed with Iowa's radio announcers and the wives of Iowa coaches.

It's probably because it seems as if Barta and Fran are trying to ruin Dolph's reputation because Dolph was caught being critical of Fran. I don't think he's a great broadcaster, but trying to paint him as a racist is shameful.

He was being critical of a student athlete in the first incident this season but ok.

ISU? It made AP news.

What's obsession is the number of usernames you've had.

 

[NWICY]

Barta has some other pressing issues too it sounds like.

Top story in the CR Gazette today.....

What does their wrestling team draw? Didn't see it listed.

Who was recruited by....................Fran. Fran took that personal; even Ray Charles can see that.

Conveniently you leave out Dolph criticizing the recruiting and coaching.

He literally called out a student athlete by name. If he would have just said "why can't Iowa get a kid like the Pitt guard" on a hot mic there would have been no issue.

Yes, there are multiple threads on the ISU board about Iowas play by play guy.

Nice, we agree it's really weird.

This isn't just ISU fans looking for a reason to crap on Iowa; LOTS of Iowa fans are pissed about this situation and are supporting Dolph

It’s weird you make excuses for a discriminator.

You don't get it. Of course it's an issue for Iowa fans to discuss. The fact that there is multiple threads on an ISU board about it is really odd.

How many usernames have you had here over the years?

Not as weird as blaming ISU fans for your AD's bad PR

 

[VegasHerky]

It’s weird you make excuses for a discriminator.

Again, nothing to do with the faux outrage ISU fans are showing toward the suspension of the Iowa radio announcer.

Step away for a bit.

It was the biggest story in the state yesterday. Sports talk shows only talked about this.

Nice move, I would stick with deflecting if I was being so obsessed with Iowa's radio guy and the wives of Iowa coaches.

1. Stop trying to make this a political thing. Nobody at all was talking about this before Iowa made it an issue today. It wasn't about snowflakes getting pissed off. Literally nobody was saying anything. This is completely about Barta and Fran wanting to get rid of Dolph.

2. Instead of being a man and just canning him, he had to go and be a total coward and slap the racist tag on him. Without getting too political, of course racism is still a problem, and obviously more of one than I realized 5 years ago. However, "King Kong" is part of the lexicon describing a total badass. When Denzel yelled "King Kong ain't got **** on me" at the end of training day, he wasn't saying he was blacker than King Kong. He was saying he was the ultimate badass. That's how Dolph was using it.

3. You guys know I've defended Iowa and McCaffery on this board many times. Many, many times. But let's call a spade a spade here: if you are trying to drum up racist charges against somebody because you are too much of a coward to fire them, that is evil behavior. It makes you a bad person. I'm honestly going to have to take a break from talking about Iowa basketball and probably sports in general, because IMO I can't separate what is going to happen on the court from this situation. I've enjoyed good natured ribbing in the past but I just can't here. I hope Fran loses every game by 100. And I can honestly say I rooted for them when we didn't play them before now.

So there is a need for multiple threads on here about it? Good to know.
