Here is the transcript if you arent sure what was said during the PC on Sunday.

I listened to it. I understand a bit more why Kirk hasn't addressed everything at this point. He's being looked at too in all of this. I'm more interested as to why Barta hasn't said anything at all.
Maybe not intentionally but it is coming off as the black guest needs to explain why it's racist and the white guys keep saying "it's just motivation and maybe they don't have as nice of personality as you."
Not great.
Ha- we haven't huddled, taken a snap under center, used a true fullback, stuck with the same uniform, or regularly employed a four man front on defense for like two decades. But, whatevs.
There's a Paw Patrol marathon on. Maybe once that gets over he will make a statement.
Oh I know lol. I see where your thoughts are in all of this.Have you met our AD?

No Worries! Hawkeye Murph, Hawkeye Andy, and Hawkeye Andrew are just being biased and unbalanced.
I don't think this had to do with the parallels between our style of play lol. I think this fan Is so clueless he thinks taking a knee for social justice is the same as adding black back into our color scheme.
I also think he's missing the point that Iowa is going to knee this year because Coach Ferentz and the program got exposed. Kirk wouldn't have allowed that. On the other hand Campbell has already said he'd let his players do what they would like back in 2017, and if we kneel now together, we'd be doing it to protest the type of injustices that have gone on in programs like the one that moron roots for.

Didn't help the narrative when he said that this never happened at UNI either
Hey Gonzo, I'm not trying to flame here and come in good faith and believe everybody is innocent until proven guilty and I hope we actual see some kind of 3rd party outside investigation and not just another quick internal self review.
Anyway, since you brought up the president of Iowa, I want you to read this DMR register article on that hiring process. I'll link it below.
After you read that and remembering Bruce Rastetter, who was the head of BOR and is an enormously large KF supporter and donor, can you see why a lot of people are just getting tired of the Iowa way.
Look I'm not calling for anybody to be let go or whatever, I just want everybody to be heard and let the chips fall where they may for once.
Racial issues aside for a moment, and focusing on the student athlete education environment
It's getting really hard for me to accept the silence of not having any kind of university response or statement to the Iowa football player student/player who had an known learning disability by the coaches and was still frequently mocked so bad by multiple coaches on the staff and in front of other players that he had to transfer. The kid wanted to speak up but he was too afraid.......This is a coming from a highly rated white Iowa kid that wanted nothing more in life than to play football at Iowa.

If you can’t see how the media manipulates what want you to see these days I don’t know what to tell you.
Barta is sucking his thumb thinking it will all blow over. Prez BH is busy guiding the IT staff to make things disappear (see political forum on Hillary about Benghazi). BF is going "Daddy, what should we do?" BoR is taking it all in waiting for a response from the athletic department. Our governor is more worried about covering up her gray hair than anything right now. KF is like "Honey, you need to get me more gum. I'm going through a pack every couple of hours now with all this going on."
