So we have one tweet calling Brian a bully, and a couple more vague tweets saying he is a problem? Wow, I bet that’s never happened at a division one football program before. He should be fired immediately!

This lame defense brought to you by Penn St fan.

Who hasn’t had a Sandusky in the program at some point?
 
This is literally deja vu Penn State. Long history of abuse by trusted assistant. Head coach claims no knowledge, but that is laughable. Fan base refuses to accept facts and grants head coach herd immunity.

But as we saw in Penn State, once the general public (non-hawk) becomes informed, heads will finally roll.

The fact that Iowa is mainly irrelevant in the national spotlight helps them try to lie their way out of it. The fact that there is a vacuum of sports news right now will be the liars’ undoing.



Mainly?
 
What's going to happen is this group will provide proof that racial issues were brought to Kirk's attention and he ignored them. Then what? Does he survive lying about it and covering it up?

Yes he will. Iowa fans don't really care as long as Kirk is the coach. He will be done in a couple years, this may actually have him hang in there longer just to try to have time pass and have BF become the HC. If BF goes to another team, you know that will be KF last season for sure.
 
I don't think anything will change. You'd think Doyle would at least be done but I'm not expecting it to happen. If they do nothing significant, I can't imagine it won't negatively affect recruiting but the pessimist in me thinks otherwise. Some recruits will buy the lip service bs and others will just think about the NFL.

You realize that Jerry Sandusky raped children right?
 
Nothing to see here! But those Iowa State fans assaulting and almost killing our band members, they should all be in jail.;)
 
I am not sure how, in light of recent events, and the idea that we will be better at listening that anyone can defend what was going on in Iowa City.

The "Iowa Way" was just the "white way." It's Ferentz program and he held the carrot of the NFL in front of his black athletes and said if you want to get in you better act a certain way.

When you act the "Iowa Way" you better talk a certain way, walk a certain way, listen to certain music, keep your hair a certain way. The Iowa Way basically just meant act white, right?

Were the coaches saying the n word. I don't know but just because you aren't saying the n word doesn't mean you weren't running a program full of systematic racism.

And maybe this is where the white men need to stop and listen and understand why the Iowa Way was so hurtful to so many young men and the power that Ferentz had under these kids and why they were afraid to come forward.
 
LOL, I refuse to believe that anything more will come of this, maybe, maybe Doyle will be gone. But they will duck, dive, dodge, and spin their way out of this like they always do and come out in great shape.
They will probably fudge their way into looking good. Maybe figure some way to bring the children's hospital into it.

puke.

This and at some point the AD, and President will have to get involved.

Also, if you aren't getting rid of Doyle for being racist how can you not get rid of Brian. If Brian is suspended only does that mean he was just a little racist? It makes no sence.

No matter what the local media wants this isn't going away soon.

Well, Brian is the little Ferentz, so he is only a little racist.
 
Thread on Hawkeye report about Hardy having a podcast describing the Iowa football coaches as having burner accounts and using them to destroy journalists that post the truth about the Iowa Fball program on twitter.
 
My guess based on what I’ve heard:

Doyle and his kid are gone.
BF and KF have been made aware that they are coaching their last seasons at Iowa.
Iowa will forfeit some amount of schollys from the 2021 class and forego any potential bowl games for two seasons as internal punishment.

We shall see if this happens. Would help us if we could get those 2021 recruits they’ve got right now.

Sounds like YOUR wish list to me.
