Kirk Ferentz getting sued for being racist

[derpyherky]

Take this for what it is worth. I know someone from with the walls of the athletic department at Iowa. They said it is a **** show but at this point in time, everyone there thinks Ferentz will weather this storm and Doyle isn't going to sink in the storm either. If Doyle leaves, if will be because Herald or BOR steps in.

Ferentz has to be losing his mind

Being the control freak he is I bet he's in the fetal position crying, why sucking his thumb.

 

[knowlesjam]

You already know Iowa football is going to "get away" with this and Ferentz will be praised nationally for being one of the pioneers for change. Puke.

Well, they do have an opening at between the 3rd and 4th quarters to pay homage to Kirk...all can face him and applaud.

2020 gonna 2020.

Puke indeed.

Mark my words.

The Iowa Football Program has not seen it's darkest days yet.

Even if this blows over and Kirk looks like a hero, there is still more that will come out over the next few years.

Get your popcorn.

You literally cut off the rest of the sentence, which made it obvious that I was talking about the changes to the Twitter policy. Troll on though, brother.

Pretty much every poster called him an idiot?

Idk, thought the stuff that came out about Baylor and Penn State would really hurt their recruiting but it never did. Realize this is different, but I doubt it has much of any effect.

I'm starting to hold the opinion that if Iowa fires Doyle, Kirk then admits responsibility for allowing that to happen within his walls.

I pay a $5 royalty to the U of I every time I wave at someone.

That's nothing, it costs me $12 to wear black.

I just came here to post that I think nothing substantial happens here. Unbelievable, but also believable.

I got a discount and only fork over $22 every time I do the Iowa invented gator chomp.

At this point for our own benefit (recruiting, Iowa fans desperately want him gone, etc) do we want him to get actually fired?

Hell of a deal. I'm still paying $50 every time I sing our fight song because there's "Fight for Iowa State" in our opening verse and we all know we stole that line from them.

No surprise at all, I'm sure they fully hope to retain Ferentz AND Doyle after all both have been very successful for the school. Whether one or both go depends on how long this is pushed by local and national media. Local media outside of Rob Howe are barely pushing it at all. Bandgate got more (and undue) pressure for ISU than this. Some national media are really pushing so really it depends how long this news cycle goes. If nothing major happens in sports, they will keep talking about it and may force Iowa into a decision.

Can you give me a hint

He should be fired. It doesn't matter whether him being there or not causes a competitive advantage or hurts Iowa. At the least Doyle needs to go.

Burn it all down and piss on the ashes....just dear God let Barta be the cockroach.

The bolded is not true in the slightest.

Oh I agree but it appears Iowa isn't going to fire him
