Is it an investigation or a review? Look at the wording from the university (it says review). According to dictionary, an investigation is a formal and systematic examination. A review is to look or examine closely. Maybe there is no difference, maybe there is. I don't know but lawyers sure like to quibble over exact wording.
All athletes. There are literally career fairs specifically for athletes from all sports. That's how many of them end up in insurance sales, medical supply sales, pharmaceutical sales, etc. Absolutely they can forge their own way but many of them are given opportunities because of their notoriety in the state. I know several people that have benefited from it.
Totally get what you're saying, but Wadley will end up being fine. He was a great college football player, had a cup of coffee in the NFL, and I'm sure has made plenty of other connections. He won't be brought down by his one dumb mistake he made when he was 25-26 years old.
At this point, it's too late in the off season to try and look for a new staff. I just don't think it'd be possible.
I'll believe that when I see it, because I still have no faith that Iowa will hold him accountable. What I was saying though is that for this year, they'd have someone currently on the staff take over for the year and next year they would look for someone else. The only problem with that are those that are left on staff would most likely be out of a job because the new coach would bring in almost everyone from their old staff.
I wouldn't necessarily say nail in the coffin, but I would firmly state Flemming's accusation opens up a huge can of worms for Kirk. Here's a guy that didn't have any past issues with Iowa as far as his character goes, he made a name for himself at WVU and then made it to the NFL. Why would he lie about his experience?
I think a big factor is how much weight they're going to give Barta in making the decisions. This investigation is going straight to the President of the University I believe.
