Kirk Ferentz getting sued for being racist

Nobody is saying Wadley couldn't have been discriminated against because he has questions about his character.

They just aren't taking his statement as absolute truth.
Plenty of people have said that they question Wadley and DJK's stories due to their past history. And again, even if half of Wadley's story is true, it's damning for Kirk and the program.. As are the rest of these accusations.
 
Take a step back and realize the absolute stupidity of what you are saying. What he was saying is consistent with what dozens of other players have said. So are they all lying?

This technique is racist enabling 101-- try to denigrate the character of the person making the claims to distract from the actual issue.
He and DJK have taken their accusations a step further than others and they are directing their accusations at KF while most others are not. Did you read Wadley's statement? Accusing Ferentz of cutting off his meal plan as punishment. Again, I'm all for punishing the staff if the investigation supports that in any way. I'm not firing anybody because of something Akrum Wadley and DJK post on social media. Their statements need to be included in the investigation.

So if Doyle would've taken away Akrum's meals, Kirk's all good right?

As long as we are making sweeping assumptions on isolated events, I don't trust those who said Wadley stiffed them on an autograph, because I don't believe the opinion of anyone dumb enough to pay for an Akrum Wadley autograph.

Is that how this works?

Well, there is proof if you want to look for it. Emails and messages that were exchanged from Akrum's verified account that he then deleted after people sent him money.
 
No - He would still need to be held accountable. The real question is; is that accusation true. If so, KF should be gone.
I would agree. What about the accusation that multiple coaches made fun of Jack Kallenberger for having a learning disability and posted his grades on the white board for everyone to see?

Akrum provided text messages that showed proof he was being punished for no reason by Brian and had to do community service..
 
The vast majority of his players and people that have worked with him over the years disagree with you.

He has been running a racist program for over a decade now and look how he raised his son. His credibility is definitely in question

You have to actually say something of substance at the press conference other than "I don't recall..." or "I have no recollection" to have your credibility questioned (obviously by design). Kirk has dodged any question of substance by using canned responses. Just wait until the victims' lawyer drops a direct email and response from Ferentz. Let's see if he "can't recall" it then.

That's not what it said. Binns didn't know the reason and didn't ask the reason.

And he got 20 hours of community service in late June that had to be completed by the end of Spring Ball so he had 9 months to get it done.

He would have needed to complete just over 2 hours per month to fulfill the 20 hours.
 
It's literally under investigation..
You guys love you some Akrum Wadley tweets but when it's a guy like Jordan Lomax, nothing to see here:

"I have much respect for KF and other coaches on the staff as men of great integrity, principles, & morals and I am confident they have the ability be a part of the solution. As my brother @Faith_Joseph already mentioned, “the change starts in the weight room”

Lomax wants the entire S&C staff gone?
 
Lol....You have to meet HUD guidelines to qualify for low income housing. Your buddy was trying to claim the University was somehow involved in qualifying athletes to live there. That there was some big conspiracy to allow athletes to circumvent the rules. It's not that simple.
my buddy? i have no idea what lie you are ginning up now. You said HUD runs the properties. You are ******* clueless. Stay in your lane. You know where you defend Kirk without fear of looking like a race baiting end justifies the means guy.

Lol Akrum literally was confused on why he was getting hours. Why'd he get the hours? Why did the Iowa program hand down punishments through text messages via a third party instead of talking to the player directly?

Wadley wanting Kirk gone doesn't mean Kirk will be gone. Same with DJK. Lomax and the others who would like Kirk to stay doesn't mean Kirk is going to stay. It is literally a fact that Kirk and the program he runs is currently under investigation for a discriminatory / bullying culture. I said nothing wrong.
