Hawk Fan Reactions to XF Announcement

[MeowingCows]

'Darker' characters definitely aren't an issue at UI. Fran's teams are pretty light, I'll give them that.

Sounds like that daughter really sucks as a teacher.

Wow, his daughter could be in deep trouble over this, if someone were to forward this to the school district.

Seems all traces have been removed from HR, but the guy could have F'd his daughter over especially if the Fosters got a copy of it..

Not too hard to figure out who said teacher might be.

Do those twins play.a single minute at Iowa now? Or do they get asked to move on.

Best part about it is in the replies where he tries to pull the “I’m not a racist, my future son in law is black” card.

Came here to post this, and his response to getting called racist for that comment:

 

[clonedude]

Who the heck is KDFord?

I'm so sick and tired of this... "ISU's MBB and football teams are full of thugs", but at Iowa we do things the right way and only recruit the best kids that do no wrong. It's such BS, and racially insensitive too.

Iowa's MBB is mostly white = doing things the right way, hardworking 4.0 GPA gym rats.
ISU MBB is mostly black= shady characters, thugs, dumb, cheating, etc.

It's really disgusting... but totally expected from Iowa fans.

I'm actually shocked at the responses so far on HR and HN (I don't follow Twitter much) I've seen lots of "He made the smart choice bball-wise" and "Wish him well in all but one game" type posts.

Wish I'd see more of this in the overall rivalry.

She's probably the English teacher. Can't say I cared too much about Romeo and Juliet either, Xavier.

Spoiler - everyone dies...

It's ok, guys. He's not racist. He has a black friend.

Six Seed!!!!

LOL how is Jacobsen the "shady character"?

That's f***in' hysterical, of all our guys they could've picked, they picked him. I'm deceased.

He's not. He just got called on his ******** and chose the only white player he could think of to make it seem as if he did not mean it as he totally meant it.

Huge stretch to play the race card over that... Please don't make this any more than a welcome to ISU, sorry hawks thread.

My daughter teaches at Oskaloosa High School. She has had him in one of her classes. Here is, verbatim, the text she sent me a few minutes ago:

“Don’t be upset about Xavier Foster’s choice. He’s an academic nightmare, arrogant, and has next to nothing for work ethic.”

Sounds like a perfect fit for ISU.

This is not “sour grapes” from her, either. She cares nothing about sports. About a year ago I jokingly asked her to tell Foster to go to Iowa or she will flunk him. Her reply was much the same as her text.

I hope all the best for the kid, but the NBA may not be the sure thing he thinks it is.

I really do not know the academic standards for either school, but judging by the outside, it seems like ISU might help him more with that than Iowa would. Seems like Iowa would hold their players more accountable than ISU. That's just my outside observation, is there any truth to my outside view? Other than what I've observed over the years in football and basketball, it seems that Iowa holds them more accountable.

Thoughts?

sour grapes

Sounds like your daughter has a big mouth and should not be teaching.

I loved one that just happened.

"He got Joe T, the top player in NYC.

 

[Clonehomer]

It's ok, guys. He's not racist. He has a black friend.

Well, not a friend. But he does smile when he hands the valet his keys. So that's friendly, right?

 

[MeowingCows]

He's not. He just got called on his ******** and chose the only white player he could think of to make it seem as if he did not mean it as he totally meant it.

That is the funniest/dumbest thing I'll see all week, and it's only Monday. Thank God for hok fans, an infinite source of entertainment.

They just started a thread in the last hour on Hawkeye Report called Fran's Hot Seat Temperature. Friends, there is not much else on the internet today I could recommend more strongly.

I'm either going to love you or hate you for sharing this link.

Yup. She could be in some trouble for sure. Thank her idiot dad for blabbing.
