They have NO BUSINESS on the field. There is a paved path around the field for them.
I am glad we have a competent AD who gets his ducks in a row and presents factual evidence before running his uninformed mouth.

The next obvious step from U of I is to claim that everything they are concerned about happened prior to the video. Just watch.
I hope you're joking. You don't make those motions in a shoulder to shoulder crowd of people trying to exit. You also dont play period.
No, Iowa and most of their fans are condoning assault and aggression by the Iowa band .
He never said they did it on purpose. But if you're going to force your way into a crowded area while trolling opposing fans with your fight song, you better ******* recognize that the song you're playing requires tuba players to swing their tubas wildly in said crowded area.
After video review, the call on the field stands - **** Iowa
I would be FUMING if I'm the turf management guys. They ignored security measures all to troll a crowd of cyclone fans by playing their fight song, and in the process completely trample the field after a rain soaked day. My god this is insanity.
When you get down to get. Iowa band starts something, victims would he fans trying to leave them north west exit and then victim blame the fans and say the fans seen victim blaming them. Sounds like a fry thing.
Are you suggesting they aren't capable of playing their fight song without swinging their instruments around?
1:09 mark you can see the front the band is well into the crowd and the band members are clearly swinging their instruments as they play... What could go wrong?
No one is suggesting they were purposely trying to hit anyone, but c'mon, maybe NOT play your fight song and swing your instruments while trying to get through a highly congested area. Common sense here.
Ehhh Keith seems pretty fair in this.
Well to be fair, if our fans did do this, it is their fault. I honestly think they're trying to see it from both sides as much as possible. Bottom line, don't force your band to march thru pissed off fans if you care about their safety.
The video inside the stadium shows them going OUT OF THEIR WAY to go out the west entrance where they knew fans were trying to exit.
Nah, there's a time and a place. In that tight of a crowd, it is at best unwise to do that.
He’ll be a pushover as always.
There needs to be an investigation into the behavior and actions of the Iowa band. That is the story.
So Iowa’s band was acting like a bunch of obnoxious douchebags? Shocker for that fan base.
I mean who just plows through a group of people, blasting music, and expects no push back. **** them.
