JFC, that is just insulting to people's intelligence. Of course, Hawk fans will eat it up since they don't have much intelligence to insult.
Kirk Ferentz getting sued for being racist

So has anything actually been done yet, or is the staff still in full-denial, no-changes mode?
It seems to me like the plan right now is to do absolutely nothing and hopefully get away with it and it will all die down eventually. We know the local media and journalists won't hold them to the fire.
If their "do nothing" plan doesn't work.... then they may have to fire Doyle at some point.
They let their players join the rest of the NCAA football world by allowing them to Tweet.
Strong disagree. Is your stance that if a person of color alleges racism, a white person should not point out that they received the same treatment, because doing so would be an attempt to discredit the complainant? Just let the scarlet letter of being labeled a racist hang over the person being accused, even if they have personal evidence to suggest that is an unfair accusation? That seems misguided.
Everyone has a different perspective. Hankins should be encouraged to share his experiences and how he perceived them, and his teammates should feel free to participate in that dialogue and share how they perceived the events. That is how we learn from one another. I don’t view that as belittling or discrediting.
Not sure if mentioned but Doyle's kid entered the transfer portal. Expecting Dad to be gone?
They think Doyle should be fired and KF should stay. Don’t know how they feel about the rest of the coaching staff.
Nope. I won't believe it until I see it.
Doyle's son was in a no win situation no matter what. Even if his dad was gone, it would still be way too uncomfortable for him there. His son sadly was given no choice but to leave in this situation, no matter what happens to dad.
Did the leadership council vote on it?
I see there were 5 African Americans on it out of 17 total in 2017.
So the vote was 12-5 then?
Probably the same 12-5 result as the wearing earrings, hats on backwards, wearing pants below the waist, listening to rap music, having dreadlocks, etc, etc, etc.
Has Barta been furloughed? You think if finances get tight this year, Iowa could send him home and not impact much.
Kirk could probably handle both jobs.
Who knows if Barta is even still alive? He just avoids everything.... unless it's to come out against ISU on something.
