Kirk Ferentz getting sued for being racist

[Stewo]

We're still waiting for the first apology from the program, right?

How is this not hush money?

they didn't fire him for cause ... so he must have his contract paid out. However... I am sure it came with a NDA, which is really standard anyway.

What this really is ... is failure to show cause for this change.

I'm trying to catch up in this thread. Is the Iowa football program still racist?

Does the Tin Man have a sheet metal ****?

You have a tendency to mark my posts as funny when I comment about KF's role in the Everson/Satterfield case, but never actually respond. I'm curious what your thoughts are on what Kirk did in that case.

They mishandled the situation by talking to the victim, but insinuating there was an attempt at a cover-up is just your typical Iowa State tinfoil hat stuff. Ferentz asked players to move back into the room after the incident because it was DJK’s room, and he had been living off-campus without Ferentz’s knowledge.

Uh, no duh. If Iowa had tried firing Doyle for cause before the investigation concluded, Doyle would have sued them for wrongful termination. It would have been an expensive, drawn out, and heavily publicized trial. If Iowa had waited for the investigation to conclude, Iowa State fans and people like Dan Woken would have thrown hissy fits that Doyle wasn’t fired yet. It was the only option.

You might want to just call it a day. Wow....

Yeah might be time for him to log off.

How big of loss is it for Doyle to be gone? Second in command and one of the best in the business has to be a 1-2 games per year swing

The independent investigation found there was no attempt at a cover up. I’m sorry you are so upset by facts.

Hey @Brodie0 just about died laughing on this one. Yeah, I don't think that was muscle on Stanley.

According to the victim's mother all of these individuals encouraged the victim to allow them to handle an on campus investigation rather than reporting the assault to authorities.

I think its been unanimous on this board that Doyle should be fired, but why the hell did it take this long? Not to mention he got a heck of a paycheck to shut up and take the blame. Unbelievable. Now watch as Iowa will try and act like they took care of the issue and that everyone should drop it and move on.

I guess we’re going to find out.

I think it's a respectable amount of time. They had enough evidence to determine he should be let go. The biggest problem I have is that there has not been one person to actually take fault nor apologize in this entire situation.

The law firm conducting the investigation said there was no evidence that Iowa tried to cover anything up. If you can’t accept that fact I don’t know what to tell you.

I don’t really remember the specifics of that particular case. I’d have to review the details.

You don't remember the Jane Meyer lawsuit? JFC man, that's a brutal answer.

How long is it going to take you to review it?

BHGP was calling for your coach's and AD's head back in 2011 because of this.

Also, here's the dispute her parents made: http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/07/23/iowa.rape.allegations/index.html

It states Iowa says there was no cover up, however did not dispute ANY of the letter.

They had all this evidence last week....it doesn't take real long to see that some 50 student athletes all had similar stories. Just seems like they delayed it. But yes I agree. KF is acting like he has amnesia, Doyle is calling everyone a liar, nothing BF, and Barta is about as silent as church mouse

This, its basically a nothing statement by both parties, the state footing the bill for 1.1 mil, nobody accepts responsibility or fault, and nothing actually changes other than a new S&C coach for UI and an early retirement for a stereotyping, meathead.
