This is worse than public intox...

Does the U of I own those scooters? Many companies have a zero tolerancing policy on driving a company vehicle after drinking, this could fall into that.

I'd highly doubt it. I have seen a few stores in IC.

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

missed the part about it being on a scooter. Is the athletic dept supplying these things? Wtf

Sounds like starting free safety Brandon Snyder may be released from the team.

Wow that would be a monster blow if that's true

And unsurprisingly, ferentz only gives Wirfs a one game suspension. I guess in his world trying to get home safely (and failing with funny results) deserves the same level of punishment as driving a scooter with two other people on it while you have a .129 BAC

If the second game on the schedule had been any non-con opponent other than Iowa State he would have gotten 2 games.

After the Reiff suspension if though for sure that Wirfs would get two games. Glad he didnt so there will be less excuses when we kick Iowa's ass.

What has Ferentz done in the past in these situatons? Has first offense normally been 2 games?

He's been all over the place. Zero games or 1 game have been the latest ones

Predictable: Murph and Sears turn Iowa’s drinking problems in to ISU false equivalency.

We knew Wirfs would be back for Iowa's Super Bowl. It is just another game, right Hogeyes.

Well, each situation is different. But what I would say is that it seems like KF would understand that DUI would be a more serious offense than public intox and pulling on cop car door handles, for which he doled out a 1 game suspension.

Only 1 first offense OWI has ever resulted in a 2 game suspension under KF and that was given to Shaun Prater.

The reason he got the extra game is he told the cop that pulled him over the bartender must have put alcohol in his pop. Im guessing KF wasnt amused with that excuse.

Nope. Kirk is pissed that it made folks nationally laugh. It isn’t about behavior standards. It is all about public opinion. In no way shape or form can you discount the impact of the second game opponent. I will even concede it may have been same thing if it was Isu player and Campbell was dolling out the punishment. After Adrian’s pummeling of the taxi driver I must confess Kirk is not one of those guys that blows me away with his integrity.

I would guess he wasnt amused with having 3 people on a moped either

Not that there is anything wrong with that.

That moped was hauling around 500+ lbs......pretty amazed by that.

He had two 90 pound people with him?

Didn't we want Wirfs back for ISU? I did.
